It is important to explore and develop multifunctional phase change composites with high latent-heat capacity photothermal conversion capability. A novel ultralight flexible carbon foam (CF)-based composite was fabricated by encapsulating n-eicosane into a CF skeleton that had been precoated titanium(III) oxide (Ti2O3) nanoparticles (NPs). Morphological structures, as well the properties of leakage-proof, thermal energy storage, temperature regulation, conversion, were investigated. The...

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), although it has shown great potential use in electrocatalysis, owns inert basal planes and the low electrical conductivity that limit its effective application. In this work, a MoS2/carbon nanocage hybrid catalyst (MoS2/Co–N–CN2) with higher density of exposed edge sites was developed for efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) oxygen (OER). The successfully prepared via confined growth MoS2 porous carbon matrix derived from metal organic framework ZIF-67....

Abstract The zeolitic imidazolate framework‐67 (ZIF‐67)‐based “pearl‐necklace‐like” composite membranes are prepared by in situ intergrown on the surface of 2‐methylimidazole/cellulose acetate (MIM/CA) electrospun nanofibers for first time. With aid MIM, ZIF‐67 nanocrystals successfully grow throughout composites and attach to fibers just like pearls necklace. incubation time has a significant influence structures properties composites. And with an approximate saturation nanocrystals,...

Integrating layered nanostructured MoS2 with a structurally stable TiO2 backbone to construct reciprocal /TiO2 -based nanocomposites is an effective strategy. C@TiO2 /MoO3 composite nanofibers doped 1T-phase nanograins were fabricated by partially sulfurizing MoOx precursors. By controlling suitable preoxidation temperature before severe thermolysis of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), the precursors formed polymer-embedded array through coordination Mo source and pyrrolidyl groups PVP....

To protect the structure of MoS2 from collapse, a strong skeleton is expected to help maintain integrity. In this study, cotton linters burdened with hollow C@MoS2 nanocapsules are added into nutrient medium for growth bacterial cellulose membrane. Benefitting good conductivity and structural integrity, resultant fibrous membrane anode gives reversible capacities 559 155 mAh g-1 Li-ion batteries Na-ion after 100 cycles, respectively. The transformation component evolution in...
