In order to achieve high energy and power densities, a high-voltage asymmetric electrochemical supercapacitor has been developed, with activated carbon (AC) as the negative electrode silicon carbide–MnO2 nanoneedle (SiC–N-MnO2) composite positive electrode. A neutral aqueous Na2SO4 solution was used electrolyte. SiC–N-MnO2 prepared by packing growing MnO2 crystal species in only one direction on carbide surface. AC oxidized thermal treatment introduce oxygen-containing functional groups....
Abstract It is crucial for leaping forward renewable energy technology to develop highly active oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts with fast OER kinetics, and the novel design of high‐performance may come down unveiling origin high catalytic behavior. Herein, a new class heterogeneous electrocatalyst (metallic Co nanoparticles anchored on yttrium ruthenate pyrochlore oxide) provided securing kinetics. In situ X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (in XAS) reveals that kinetics can be achieved...
A higher figure of merit (ZT) can be achieved for tin selenide (SnSe)-based thermoelectric materials by significantly reducing the thermal conductivity (κ) via three promising strategies: substitution with isoelectric atoms, exfoliation nanosheets (NSs) from a bulk ingot, and chemical transformation material into porous structure. Specifically, SnSe1–xSx NSs are prepared ingots hydrothermal Li intercalation subsequent exfoliation. The S atoms SnSe fabrication contribute to scattering phonons...
Silicon carbide microsphere/birnessite-type MnOx (SiC/B-MnOx) composites were prepared by removal of a SiO2 layer with redox deposition birnessite-type for supercapacitor electrode materials.

Thermoplastic polyurethane (PU) elastomer, prepared from poly(tetramethylene glycol) and methyl diphenyl diisocyanate, was blended with boron nitride (BN) to fabricate a thermally conductive interface material. BN treated by silane coupling agent (BN―NH2) PU-grafted were composite that has better thermal conductivity mechanical strength. The surface-modified filler showed enhanced dispersibility affinity because of the surface treatment functional groups affected free energy, along...

Al2O3-covered SiC/epoxy composites were prepared using a simple sol–gel method. The results of FE-SEM, TGA, and XPS indicated that the surfaces SiC particles had large, dense, homogenous distribution Al2O3. It was found introduction Al2O3 on surface improved interfacial adhesion between epoxy matrix particles; this resulted in an increase thermal conductivity since boundary resistance at filler–matrix interface decreased. In addition, showed decreased electrical owing to electron tunneling...
