Abstract Scaling the synergistic properties of MXene nanosheets to microporous aerogel architectures requires effective strategies overcome nanosheet restacking without compromising MXene's advantageous properties. Traditional assembly approaches 3D aerogels normally involve external binders/templates and/or additional functionalization, which sacrifice electrical conductivities and electrochemical activities aerogels. Herein, inspired by hierarchal scale textures Phrynosoma cornutum , a...
Abstract One possible solution against the accumulation of petrochemical plastics in natural environments is to develop biodegradable plastic substitutes using components. However, discovering all-natural alternatives that meet specific properties, such as optical transparency, fire retardancy and mechanical resilience, which have made successful, remains challenging. Current approaches still rely on iterative optimization experiments. Here we show an integrated workflow combines robotics...
Abstract Designing ultralight conductive aerogels with tailored electrical and mechanical properties is critical for various applications. Conventional approaches rely on iterative, time-consuming experiments across a vast parameter space. Herein, an integrated workflow developed to combine collaborative robotics machine learning accelerate the design of programmable properties. An automated pipetting robot operated prepare 264 mixtures Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene, cellulose, gelatin, glutaraldehyde...
Abstract Plastic pollution has become a global environmental challenge. Specifically, plastic straws are widely discarded and do not naturally decompose. Paper straws, as alternatives, suffer from weak mechanical strength, poor water/beverage stability, lack of bendability. Here, an all‐natural substitute is fabricated using top‐down approach. After lignin selectively removed natural wood slice, the delignified infiltrated with chitosan solution. The chitosan‐infiltrated wood, in its wet...
Abstract Aqueous rechargeable zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) are a safe and low‐cost energy storage technology. However, practical ZIB exploitation faces critical challenges in achieving stable Zn metal anodes, which suffer from hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) corrosion dendrite growth. To address these challenges, 2+ ‐induced assembly process to fabricate Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene‐reduced graphene oxide aerogels with ZnO crust layers on plates (abbreviated as ZnO/MG aerogel–Zn) that serve anodes is...
Abstract An ideal anti‐counterfeiting technology is desired to be unclonable, nondestructive, mass‐producible, and accompanied with fast robust authentication under various external influences. Although multiple technologies have been reported, few meet all of the above‐mentioned features. Herein, a mechanically driven patterning process reported produce higher dimensional Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene topographies in scalable yet unclonable manner, which can used as tags. By using high‐speed confocal...
Abstract Assembling 2D‐material (2DM) nanosheets into micro‐ and macro‐architectures with augmented functionalities requires effective strategies to overcome nanosheet restacking. Conventional assembly approaches involve external binders and/or functionalization, which inevitably sacrifice 2DM's nanoscale properties. Noble metal ions (NMI) are promising ionic crosslinkers, can simultaneously assemble 2DM induce synergistic Herein, a collection of NMI–2DM complexes screened categorized two...
Conductive hydrogels were fabricated by loading MXene nanosheets into proteinaceous curli fiber hydrogels. The nanocomposites synergistically combine the properties of and curli, forming mechanically electrically tunable soft electronics.
When the U.S. Supreme Court exercises its power of judicial review over state laws, decisions, like legislation it considers, frequently speak to major policy debates. Despite Court's routine involvement with statutes, theoretical explanations generally do not distinguish between laws and federal laws. The characteristics legislatures lead legislators in different states have distinct perspectives incentives, ultimately affect types enacted states. We suggest that because level...
Abstract The synthesis of low‐dimensional metal nanocrystals with precise atom‐to‐nanoscale structure control is crucial for modulating their physicochemical properties. Traditional synthetic routes encounter challenges due to isotropic metallic bonding, which leads limited over nanostructures. Herein, a versatile approach developed using various 2D material (2DM) nanoconfinements produce wide range controllable morphologies. Utilizing graphene oxide (GO) and Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene nanosheets,...
