Hydrogels are important for stretchable and wearable multifunctional sensors, but their application is limited by low mechanical strength poor long-term stability. Herein, a conductive organohydrogel with 3D honeycomb structure was prepared integrating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) black (CB) into poly(vinyl alcohol)/glycerol (PVA/Gly) organohydrogel. Such nanocomposite built on physical cross-linking network formed the hydrogen bonds among PVA, glycerol, water. CNTs CB had an add-in synergistic...

In this study, dynamic imine covalent bonds were introduced into vanillin-based vitrimers networks, endowing thermosets with hot-reprocessing ability and chemical recyclability under acid hydrolysis. First, dialdehyde monomer, which was synthesized from lignin-derived vanillin reacted conventional amine cross-linkers to form bond networks. Even after three hot-processing cycles, the tensile strength elongation at break of polyschiff could be recovered least up 71.2 72.8%, respectively,...

It has been shown that spectroscopy of transiting extrasolar planets can potentially provide a wealth information about their atmospheres. Herein, we set up the inverse problem in spectroscopic retrieval. We use nonlinear optimal estimation to retrieve atmospheric state (pioneered for Earth sounding by Rodgers). The formulation quantifies degrees freedom and content spectrum with respect geophysical parameters; herein, focus specifically on temperature composition. First, apply technique...

Abstract Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) with good flexibility have attracted great demands for portable and wearable electronics. However, the low Coulombic efficiency poor cycling performance caused by uncontrolled Zn dendrite growth limit their practical applications. Herein, a novel strategy is proposed to construct flexible dendrite‐free composite anode one‐step co‐electrodeposition. Interestingly, reduction of 2+ ions nanoflakes synchronously accompanied graphene oxide reduction,...

Biochar application to soil has been proposed as a promising tool for sequestering carbon, ensuring food security, mitigating greenhouse gases (GHGs), and lowering nitrous oxide (N2O) nitric (NO) emissions. Efforts observations determine whether biochar can be repeatedly amended further sequester carbon while meeting those targets from long term practical perspective are limited. A three-year field experiment was conducted observe simultaneous methane (CH4), N2O, NO emissions in rice–wheat...

Despite the tremendous progress in spintronic studies of van der Waals (vdW) room-temperature ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2, much less effort has been spent on studying its lattice dynamics and possible interaction with degrees freedom. In this work, by combining Raman spectroscopy a wide range pressures (atmospheric pressure ∼19.5 GPa) temperature (80-690 K) first-principles calculations, we systematically studied phonon dispersion Fe3GaTe2. Our results show that energies Fe3GaTe2 located at 126.0...

Self-assembly nucleators have been increasingly used to manipulate the crystallization of PLLA due their strong intermolecular interaction with PLLA, while molecular mechanism such is still unrevealed. In present work, one special self-assembly nucleator (TMC-300) relatively high solubility in matrix, chosen investigate how works at level promote mainly through time-resolved spectroscopy. The results indicate that dipole-dipole NH···O═C between dissolved TMC-300 and chains are transformed...

Significance Certain adapted insect herbivores utilize plant toxins for self-defense against their own enemies. These adaptations structure ecosystems and limit our capacity to use biological control agents manage specialized agricultural pests. We show that entomopathogenic nematodes are exposed the western corn rootworm, an important pest sequesters defense metabolites from maize, can evolve resistance these defenses. Resisting likely allows infect kill rootworm more efficiently. findings...
