High electro-catalytic graphite felt/MnO<Subscript>2</Subscript> composite electrodes for vanadium redox flow batteries

A mild and simple synthesis process for large-scale vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) energy storage systems is desirable. A graphite felt/MnO₂ (GF-MNO) composite electrode with excellent electrocatalytic activity towards VO²⁺/VO₂⁺ redox couples in a VRFB was synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal process. The resulting GF-MNO electrodes possess improved electrochemical kinetic reversibility of the vanadium redox reactions compared to pristine GF electrodes, and the corresponding energy efficiency and discharge capacity at 150 mA cm^?2 are increased by 12.5% and 40%, respectively. The discharge capacity is maintained at 4.8 A h L^?1 at the ultrahigh current density of 250 mA cm^?2. Above all, 80% of the energy efficiency of the GFMNO composite electrodes is retained after 120 charge-discharge cycles at 150 mA cm^?2. Furthermore, these electrodes demonstrated that more evenly distributed catalytic active sites were obtained from the MnO₂ particles under acidic conditions. The proposed synthetic route is facile, and the raw materials are low cost and environmentally friendly. Therefore, these novel GFMNO electrodes hold great promise in large-scale vanadium redox flow battery energy storage systems.     

Special wetting behavior of a graphitic nanofiber-modified epoxy generalized for rough textured fabric surfaces

Wetting behavior of a polymer resin used as matrix on fabric surfaces is one of the key attributes for making high quality structural composites. Though incorporation of various functionalized nanoparticles can stimulate improvements to many properties of epoxy resins, there has not been any report on wettability of any nano-modified epoxy on rough inclined fabric surfaces. In this research work, wetting behavior of a previously developed nano-epoxy resin modified by a type of reactive graphitic nanofibers (r-GNFs) was investigated. The observation results revealed that a unique wetting behavior was discovered from the nano-epoxy on rough fabric surfaces due to the contribution of the r-GNFs. Based on this dramatically improved wettability of the epoxy, a concept of dry–wet contact model was proposed to interpret the different wetting phenomenon observed from the nano-epoxy and that of the pure epoxy. The improved wetting characteristics of the nano-epoxy system will be essential for enabling future energy efficient infusion processing for manufacturing high quality and high-performance structural composite applications.

Easily Separated and Recyclable Amino-functionalized PorousSiO2 Beads with 3D Continuous Meso/Macropore Channels

Amino-functionalized porous SiO₂ beads with a diameter of 200—800 μm(PSB-NH₂) have been successfully synthesized by grafting 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane onto meso/macroporous silica beads(PSB), in which the PSB was prepared by hydrothermal synthetic method with a porous hard template anion-exchange resin. The as-prepared materials were characterized by means of nitrogen sorption and transmission electron micrographs(TEM), showing the presence of 3D interconnected and continuous large mesopores and macropores inside. The beads were used to catalyze Knoevenagel condensation and proved to be highly active and selective due to the high accessibility of the reactants to the amino groups via the continuous 3D meso/macopores. Notably, such material in bead format facilitates the extremely straightforward separation from reaction solution without any centrifugation or filtration. Moreover, PSB-NH₂ proved to be a stable catalyst via leaching experiment test, and can be easily recovered and reused without significant loss of activity in successive catalytic cycles.

The enhancement on thermal stability and charring–forming capability of nitration group

Lipid nanoparticles, both solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), containing tacrolimus (FK) were obtained by solvent diffusion method associated with ultrasonication using stearic acid (SA) or beeswax as solid lipid. The oleic acid was used as liquid lipid in the NLC. Lipid nanoparticles were characterized by determining the drug loading, particle size, polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential (ZP). Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction were performed. Lipid nanoparticles presented nano-sized from 139 to 275 nm. The PDI results show the particles present from 0.3 to 0.5, and ZP was higher than |25| mV. Drug loading ranged of 2.3–3.2%. SA nanoparticles presented better ZP, average size and distribution. However, beeswax nanoparticles showed higher drug loading. Results suggest there are no incompatibilities between FK and the raw materials. Polymorphic modifications were not observed. The results presented show that lipid nanoparticles using both lipids were successfully obtained and may represent promising delivery system of FK in topical formulations.
