By constructing the pillared graphene model and CNTs/graphene model, the effect of the structure, arrangement and dispersion of hybrid fillers on the tensile mechanical properties of PE nanocomposites was studied. The results show that the pillared graphene/PE nanocomposites exhibit higher Young’s modulus, tensile strength and elongation at break than non-covalent connected CNTs/graphene/PE nanocomposites. The pull-out simulations show that pillared graphene by CNTs has both large interfacial load and long displacement due to the mixed modes of shear separation and normal separation. Additionally, pillared graphene can not only inhibit agglomeration but also form a compact effective thickness(stiff layer), consistent with the adsorption behavior and improved interfacial energy between pillared graphene and PE matrix.展开更多

Here, we presented growth of thin films of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks with an average domain size of ~2.83 μm^(2) and maximum domain size of up to ~26.19 μm^(2) using amphiphilic glycine derivatives on water surface. We envisage that this work will inspire the growth of a wide variety of organic two-dimensional materials with high crystallinity and boost their structure property investigations.展开更多
