Conjugated polymer (CP) films with nanometer-scale thickness exhibit unique properties distinct from their bulk counterparts, which is an important consideration for end application as thin film devices. In the realm of organic electronic devices, enabling high electrical conductance CPs often necessitates doping. However, impact doping on intrinsic mechanical properties, such elastic modulus, in ultrathin at device-relevant thicknesses not well understood and has been directly measured....
This work demonstrates a series of functionalization methods to enhance the utility thermoplastic-elastomer derived ordered mesoporous carbons, including chemical activation, heteroatom doping, and introduction nanoparticles.
The heat effect of nonthermal plasma significantly enhanced the synergy between and catalytically active sites. Consequently, nearly 100% NH 3 decomposition was achieved over low-loading Ru/Al 2 O catalyst under adiabatic conditions.
Degradable epoxy-amine thermosets derived from cyclic-ketal monomers offer robust performance and facile end-of-use processing, enabling recovery of diketone building blocks pristine carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites.
