Next-generation microelectronics and electrical power systems call for high-energy-density dielectric polymeric materials that can operate efficiently under elevated temperatures. However, the currently available polymer dielectrics are limited to relatively low working Here, solution-processable nanocomposites consisting of readily prepared Al2 O3 fillers with systematically varied morphologies including nanoparticles, nanowires, nanoplates reported. The field-dependent conduction at...
Graphene oxide (GO) sheets, considered as "soft" two-dimensional macromolecules containing multiple aromatic regions and hydrophilic oxygen groups, can adsorb the pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) through π-stacking interaction, thus causing MWNTs to stably disperse fractionate in aqueous media. The water-soluble insoluble complexes be obtained by changing initial proportion of GO which are important for noncovalent approaches toward solubilizing CNTs open a new way applications...

Functionalized graphene sheets (FGS)/ZnO nanocomposites were fabricated via thermal treatment method, using oxide as a precursor of graphene, Zn(NH3)4CO3 zinc oxide, and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) an intermediate to combine with carbon materials. Thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning (SEM) used characterize crystal structure morphology FGS/ZnO nanocomposites. It was shown that the...
Abstract Drug resistance, accounting for therapeutic failure in the clinic, remains a major challenge to effectively manage cancer. Cyclosporin A (CsA) can reverse multidrug resistance (MDR), especially epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, application of both drugs cancer therapies is hampered by their poor aqueous solubility and low bioavailability due oral administration. CsA augments potency gefitinib (Gef) Gef-sensitive Gef-resistant cell lines. Here, we...
Hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) are two-dimensional nanomaterials with graphitic-like layered nanostructures, high surface areas, and large aspect ratios. Owing to their excellent thermal conductivity, electrical mechanical strengths, BNNSs emerging as multifunctional fillers in polymer dielectrics. In this article, the authors review recent progress BN-containing nanocomposites designed for high-performance film capacitors. While general synthetic approaches polymer/BNNS...
A series of eight derivatives based on tetraphenylethylene were prepared, and two these, i.e., 1,1-bis(4-phenylcarbonyl)-2,2-diphenylethylene (2), 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-phenylcarbonyl)phenylethylene (4), characterized crystallographically. Because the rigidity steric hindrance in molecular structure enhanced regularly from sample 5 to 8, UV-visible absorption PL spectra 5-8 show transition aggregation-induced emission (AIE) enhancement (AIEE) behavior. Solid fluorescence lifetime...

Advancement of sulfur (S) cathode lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries is hindered by issues such as insulating nature sulfur, sluggish redox kinetics, polysulfide dissolution and shuttling. To address these issues, we initiate a study on applying an important amino acid protein, arginine (Arg), functional additive into S cathodes. Based our simulation study, the positively charged Arg facilitates strong interactions with polysulfides. The experimental results indicate that interaction enable...
We report that the graphene sheets can be stably dispersed in water by hydrophobic interaction with polyacrylamide. Most interestingly, resultant graphene–polyacrylamide complexes show a reversible pH responsive property although polyacrylamide itself does not possess such characteristics. This method opens up novel opportunities for potential applications of intelligent sensors, biology, medicine, nanoelectronics and other relevant areas.
