摘要： Taking an industrial sludge and its preparation of sludge wrap shell aggregates(WSAs)instead of sand to prepare baking-free brick as the research object,the development law of mechanical properties and the influence mechanism of macro and micro characteristic parameters of the bricks under different sludge and WSAs replacement rates were studied through the macroscopic mechanical properties test,with the help of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR),transmission electron microscopy-energy spectrum and other testing technology and pores and cracks analysis system(PCAS)software.The results showed that the compressive strength of each sample decreased with the increase of sludge content.When the sludge content was less than 30%,it was mainly affected by the water-binder ratio.When the sludge content was more than 30%,it was mainly affected by the sludge content.At the age of 7 days,with the increase in replacement rate of WSAs,the compressive strength of the S10 and S30 groups was higher than that of the control group.The compressive strength of the S50 experimental group was 30.38 MPa,and the loss of compressive strength was slight compared with the control group.The water absorption rate of the 28 days S100 experimental group increased by 10.71%compared with the control group.When the content of WSAs was less than 50%,the holes above 0.1μm in the brick can be reduced and transformed into smaller holes,with a decreasing trend of the plane porosity of the brick.The microscopic results of the baking-free brick showed that the three-phase system of WSAs-interface transition area-mortar was poorly bonded and delaminated compared with the gravel aggregate-interface transition area-mortar system,and damage was more likely to occur in the WSAs and interface transition area.The above results show that it is feasible to use sludge and WSAs instead of sand for the preparation of baking-free bricks.This technology not only solves the problem of sludge disposal,but also protects the over-exploitation of mineral resources,and the technology has a broad application prospect and market value.

摘要： To gain better insight into the influence of the anion size and symmetry on the transport properties and thermal stability of an electrolyte based on lithium(fluorosulfonyl)(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)-imide(FTFSI)salt,we performed the physical and electrochemical characterization of an electrolyte based on FTFSI incorporated in standard binary(3 EC/7 EMC)and ternary(EC/PC/3 DMC)alkylcarbonate mixtures.By applying the Jones-Dole-Kaminsky(JDK),Eyring and Arrhenius empirical models to the electrolyte viscosity we show that the activation enthalpy and entropy energy barriers(ΔH≠,ΔS≠)for viscous flow are between 12 and 15 kJ·mol^(-1).They are strongly dependent on the solvent nature and are significantly lower than their symmetric anions LiFSI and LiTFSI(19-20 kJ·mol^(-1))in the binary mixture.Furthermore,the hydrodynamic radius,rs,calculated by JDK,and the ionicity behavior illustrated by the Walden role,showed that the FTFSI anion is outside the solvation sphere(rs>0.6 nm)which is smaller in the case of an EC/EMC solvent base.In the 3 EC/7 EMC solvent mixture,LiFTFSI is less conductive than in the ternary mixture i.e.,σ_(max)=8.9 mS cm^(-1) at C_(max)=1.1 mol L^(-1) for 3 EC/7 EMC and,σ_(max)=10.5 mS cm^(-1) at max=0.7 mol L^(-1) for EC/PC/3 DMC,due to a strong solvation and a greater association of FTFSI ions in the binary solvent mixture.The thermal stability of FTFSI based electrolytes was determined by the shift of the evaporation temperature of the volatile solvents(DMC,EMC)in the presence of salt,towards the higher temperatures.This feature is visible on the thermograms obtained by DSC both with the liquid electrolyte and with charged LMO cathodes in presence of electrolytes.The consequences of these properties on the electrochemical behavior of a graphite(Gr)half-cell,a lithium metal(Li)anode and a manganese lithium oxide(LMO)cathode demonstrated on the one hand the formation of a thick solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)on graphite that consumed a significant amount of lithium i.e.,18%of total capacity of the first charge.Furthermore,LiFTFSI delivered 95%of the initial capacity C=360 mAh g^(-1) at C/10 with EC/PC/3 DMC versus 91%when it was combined with 3 EC/7 EMC C=348 mAh g^(-1),while the capacities obtained for LiTFSI in EC/PC/3 DMC were the lowest(C=275 mAh g^(-1))compared to those of the other salts.After 10 cycles,the capacity loss at C/20 is<2%for LiFSI and LiFTFSI with the two solvent mixtures.On the other hand,manganese dissolution from LMO as well as current collector corrosion were confirmed by post-mortem examination of opened coin cells.The incompatibility of the LMO cathode with an electrolyte based on FTFSI was confirmed by the position of the decomposition peak of charged LMO in contact with this electrolyte observed by DSC These results demonstrate that the nature of the anion as well as the composition of the solvent considerably influence the performance of imide-based lithium salts both on the anode,but especially on the high voltage cathode.

摘要： Li-CO_(2) batteries provide an attractive and potential strategy for CO_(2) utilization as well as energy conversion and storage with high specific energy densities.However,the poor reversibility caused by the decomposition obstacles of Li_(2)CO_(3) and C products is still a challenge for Li-CO_(2) batteries,which seriously influences its electrochemical performances.Herein,a free-standing MnOOH arrays cathode has been prepared and employed in Li-CO_(2) battery,which realizes a great improvement of electrochemical performances by adjusting the discharge products distribution.Experiments coupled with theoretical calculations verifies that the formation of Li-containing carbonaceous species(LiCO_(2),LiCO and Li_(2) CO_(3))bonded with MnOOH through Li ion regulates the nucleation behavior of Li_(2)CO_(3) and C,making them grown on MnOOH uniformly.The fine Li_(2) CO_(3) grains(with a size about 5 nm)embedded into carbon matrix greatly enlarges the contact interface between them,facilitating the transmission of electrons through the discharge products and finally improves CO_(2) evolution activity.This ingenious design strategy of regulating discharge products distribution to improve electrochemical performances provides a promising way to develop advanced Li-CO_(2) batteries.

摘要： This study attempts to analyze the microstructure and interface behavior of aluminum 6061(Al 6061)-Vgrooved stainless steel(SS304)explosive cladding by numerical and experimental methods.Numerical simulation was performed by Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics(SPH)technique,in ANSYS AUTODYN,and the results are correlated with experimental outcome.The machining of V-grooves on the base plate transform the melted layer formed in conventional cladding(without grooves on the base plate)into a smooth undulating interface,for a similar experimental condition.The flyer plate and collision velocities,observed in numerical simulation,are in good agreement to the analytical expectations.The pressure developed in the flyer plate is higher than the base plate and the maximum pressure is witnessed at the collision point irrespective of grooved base plate or otherwise.The temperature developed in the collision point of conventional explosive cladding exceeds the melting point of both the participant metals,whereas,it exceeds the melting point of aluminum alone,in case of V-grooved base plate cladding.The shear and impact strengths of the V-grooved base plate clads are higher than the conventional clads and the fracture surfaces exhibit mixed modes of fracture.

摘要： Biomass-derived residue carbonization has been an important issue for"carbon fixation"and"zero emission",and the carbonized products have multiple application potentials.However,there have been no specific research to study the differences in macro-and micro-morphology,electrical properties and many other aspects of the products obtained from carbonization of pure cellulose,pure lignin or their complex,lignocellulose.In this work,lignocellulose with cellulose to lignin mass ratio of 10:1 is obtained using p-toluenesulfonic acid hydrolysis followed by homogenization process at a controlled condition.Then,carbon heterostructure with fibers and sheets(CH-10)are obtained by pyrolysis at 1500°C.Detailed results imply that the fiber-like carbon structure possesses high crystallinity and low defect density,coming from carbonization of the cellulose content in lignocellulose(LC)nanofibers.Correspondingly,the graphite-like carbon sheet with high defect density and low crystallinity comes from carbonization of the lignin content in LCs.Further investigation indicates CH-10 possesses enhanced polarization and moderate impedance matching which makes it an ideal candidate for electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorption.CH-10 exhibits an excellent EMW absorption performance with a minimum RL value of-50.05 dB and a broadest absorption bandwidth of 4.16 GHz at a coating thickness as thin as 1.3 mm.

摘要： A photovoltaic technology historically goes through two major steps to evolve into a mature technology. The first step involves advances in materials and is usually accompanied by the rapid improvement of power conversion efficiency. The second step focuses on interfaces and is usually accompanied by significant stability improvement. As an emerging generation of photovoltaic technology, perovskite solar cells are transitioning to the second step of their development when a significant focus shifts toward interface studies and engineering. While various interface engineering strategies have been developed, interfacial characterization is crucial to show the effectiveness of interfacial modification. Here, we review the characterization techniques that have been utilized in studying interface properties in perovskite solar cells. We first summarize the main roles of interfaces in perovskite solar cells, and then we discuss some typical characterization methodologies for morphological, optical,and electrical studies of interfaces. Successful experiences and existing problems are analyzed when discussing some commonly used methods. We then analyze the challenges and provide an outlook for further development of interfacial characterizations. This review aims to evoke strengthened research devotion on novel and persuasive interfacial engineering.

摘要： In this work,the sandwich joints were joined by low temperature pressureless sintering Ag paste.The morphology and thermal behavior of Ag nanoparticle paste was characterized and analyzed.The sintered Ag joints with different metallization were prepared and tested.The joints with Ag metallization exhibited superior shear strength and interface bonding ratio.However,the joints with Cu metallization showed lowest shear strength and interface delamination.The interfacial microstructures were observed and the diffusion kinetics between Ag and Au atoms were both calculated.The excessive diffusion of Ag atoms towards the Au layer deteriorated the interface bonding ratio and shear strength.This work will help understand the bonding mechanism between sintered Ag and other metallization.

摘要： The employment of microwave absorbents is highly desirable to address the increasing threats of electromagnetic pollution.Importantly,developing ultrathin absorbent is acknowledged as a linchpin in the design of lightweight and flexible electronic devices,but there are remaining unprecedented challenges.Herein,the self-assembly VS_(4)/rGO heterostructure is constructed to be engineered as ultrathin microwave absorbent through the strategies of architecture design and interface engineering.The microarchitecture and heterointerface of VS_(4)/rGO heterostructure can be regulated by the generation of VS_(4) nanorods anchored on rGO,which can effectively modulate the impedance matching and attenuation constant.The maximum reflection loss of 2VS_(4)/rGO40 heterostructure can reach−43.5 dB at 14 GHz with the impedance matching and attenuation constant approaching 0.98 and 187,respectively.The effective absorption bandwidth of 4.8 GHz can be achieved with an ultrathin thickness of 1.4 mm.The far-reaching comprehension of the heterointerface on microwave absorption performance is explicitly unveiled by experimental results and theoretical calculations.Microarchitecture and heterointerface synergistically inspire multi-dimensional advantages to enhance dipole polarization,interfacial polarization,and multiple reflections and scatterings of microwaves.Overall,the strategies of architecture design and interface engineering pave the way for achieving ultrathin and enhanced microwave absorption materials.

摘要： The low ionic conductivity of solid-state electrolytes(SSEs)and the inferior interfacial reliability between SSEs and solid-state electrodes are two urgent challenges hindering the application of solid-state sodium batteries(SSSBs).Herein,sodium(Na)super ionic conductor(NASICON)-type SSEs with a nominal composition of Na_(3+2x)Zr_(2-x)MgxSi_(2)PO_(12) were synthesized using a facile two-step solid-state method,among which Na_(3.3)Zr_(1.85)Mg_(0.15)Si_(2)PO_(12)(x=0.15,NZSP-Mg_(0.15))showed the highest ionic conductivity of 3.54mS∙cm^(-1) at 25°C.By means of a thorough investigation,it was verified that the composition of the grain boundary plays a crucial role in determining the total ionic conductivity of NASICON.Furthermore,due to a lack of examination in the literature regarding whether NASICON can provide enough anodic electrochemical stability to enable high-voltage SSSBs,we first adopted a high-voltage Na_(3)(VOPO_(4))2F(NVOPF)cathode to verify its compatibility with the optimized NZSP-Mg_(0.15) SSE.By comparing the electrochemical performance of cells with different configurations(low-voltage cathode vs high-voltage cathode,liquid electrolytes vs SSEs),along with an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy evaluation of the after-cycled NZSP-Mg_(0.15),it was demonstrated that the NASICON SSEs are not stable enough under high voltage,suggesting the importance of investigating the interface between the NASICON SSEs and high-voltage cathodes.Furthermore,by coating NZSP-Mg_(0.15) NASICON powder onto a polyethylene(PE)separator(PE@NASICON),a 2.42 A∙h non-aqueous Na-ion cell of carbon|PE@NASICON|NaNi_(2/9)Cu_(1/9)Fe_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)O_(2) was found to deliver an excellent cycling performance with an 88%capacity retention after 2000 cycles,thereby demonstrating the high reliability of SSEs with NASICON-coated separator.

摘要： Responsive emulsions are the emulsions that can be reversibly switched on-demand between“stable”and“unstable”by environmental stimulus or trigger,which allows a simple and effective adjustment approach to achieve emulsification and demulsification.In recent years,stimuli-responsive emulsions acting as smart soft material are received considerable attention with the advantages of simple manipulation,good reversibility,low cost,easy treatment,and little effect on the system.In this paper,the recent research progress of emulsions that can respond to external stimuli,including pH,light,magnetic field,CO_(2)/N_(2) and dual responsive are reviewed.Also,the potential applications based on responsive emulsion are discussed,such as catalytic reactions,heavy oil recovery,polymer particles synthesis and optical sensor,aiming to summarize the latest achievements and put forward the possible development trends of responsive emulsions.
