Single- or few-layered h-BN nanosheets (BNNSs) are analogous to graphene and possess unique properties. However, their technological applications were severely hindered by the low production efficiency of BNNSs. We reported here a study in which BNNSs efficiently produced exfoliating bulk powder thionyl chloride without using any dispersion agents. The yield was as high 20%, it could be doubled through second round exfoliation precipitate. Microscopic results revealed that generally...

We demonstrate a single-phase, two-way shape actuator that, in the absence of an external load, elongates upon cooling and reversibly contracts heating. In simple straightforward process, partially cross-linked, semicrystalline poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) network is melted, stretched to several hundred percent strain, further cross-linked. Upon removal applied elastic double adopts "state-of-ease" that retains part its former strain. When cooled, internal stress-induced crystallization causes...

Abstract Zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) that use water‐based electrolytes have attracted significant attention. However, under harsh conditions, extreme heat is accumulated inside ZIBs, which inevitably causes thermal runway risk. Therefore, the practical applications of rechargeable ZIBs are significantly limited because internal by conditions induces drastic bulges or even explosions. To overcome this limitation, a self‐adaptive thermoregulatory hydrogel electrolyte (TRHE) integrates phase...

An aqueous supercapacitor is an emerging energy storage unit on account of its low cost, fast delivery rate, and long service life. The density can be enlarged via extending the voltage window electrode materials, while electrolyte remains thermodynamically constant at 1.23 V.

Controlling network architecture and chain connectivity is critical to understanding elastic energy storage improving performance of shape-memory polymers. Acrylate-terminated poly(caprolactones) were converted into thermoset networks by three different reactions: conventional free radical polymerization, radical-induced coupling with multifunctional thiols, base-catalyzed Michael addition thiols. The highly efficient thiol–acrylate reaction ensures that the molecular weight between...

ABSTRACT Shape‐memory polymers (SMPs) that respond near body temperature are attracting broad interest, especially in the biomedical fields. In this study, triggering of poly(caprolactone) SMP networks is precisely adjusted by inclusion non‐crystallizable molecular linkers and variation prepolymer weight. Longer, non‐crystalline lower weight prepolymers interfere with crystallization, lowering transition temperature. Networks prepared crystallization temperatures beneath human yet above room...

Hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) possess ultimate thermal and chemical stabilities mechanical strengths. However, the unmodified BNNSs are hydrophobic insoluble in water, which hinders their use many technological areas requiring aqueous compatibility. In this work, h-BN was treated with molten citric acid to produce dispersible sheets (ca-BNNSs). The resultant ca-BNNSs were used fabricate ca-BNNS/polyacrylamide (i.e., BNNS2.5/PAAm) nanocomposite hydrogels, targeting high water...
