Moreover, the influence of mole ratio of BA to MAA, pH value on the oligomer was studied. And the effects of the added amount of oligomer, self-crosslinked monomer and HFBA, mass ratio of BA to MMA, reaction temperature and the initiator on the polymerization technology and the performance of the product, were investigated and optimized. The structure and performance of the fluorocarbon polymer emulsion were characterized and tested with FTIR, TEM, MFT and contact angle and water absorption of the latex film. The experimental results show that the optimal conditions for preparing fluorocarbon polymer emulsion are as follows： for preparing the oligomer, tool ratio of BA to MAA is equal to 1.0 ： 1.60, and pH value is controlled within the range of 8.0 and 9.0; for preparing fluorocarbon polymer emulsion, the added amount of oligmer[P（BA/MANa）] is 6%; mass ratio of BA to MMA is 40 ＂ 60; the added amount of self-crosslinked monomer is 2%, the added amount of HFBA is 15 %; reaction temperature is 80 ℃; the mixture of potassium persulfate and sodium bisulfite is used as the initiator. The film-forming stability of the fluorocarbon polymer emul- sion and the performance of the latex film, which is prepared with the soap-free emulsion polymerization, are better than that prepared with the conventional emulsion polymerization.展开更多

The S@PPy nanoparticles are synthesized by in situ chemical oxidative polymerization of pyrrole on the surface of sulfur particles,and then graphene sheets are covered outside the S@PPy nanoparticles,forming a three-dimensional conductive network. When evaluating the electrochemical performance of S@PPy/GS in a lithium–sulfur battery,it delivers large discharge capacity,excellent cycle stability,and good rate capability. The initial discharge capacity is up to 1040 m Ah/g at 0.1 C,the capacity can remain 537.8 m Ah/g at 0.2 C after 200 cycles,even at a higher rate of 1 C,the specific capacity still reaches 566.5 m Ah/g. The good electrochemical performance is attributed to the unique structure of S@PPy/GS,which can not only provide an excellent transport of lithium and electron ions within the electrodes,but also retard the shuttle effect of soluble lithium polysulfides effectively,thus plays a positive role in building better lithium-sulfur batteries.展开更多
