The crosslinked film showed lower lithium ionic conductivity at room temperature (about 10^(-10) S/cm). However,the lithium ionic conductivity was obviously increased by blending with high polar polymers such as polyethylene oxide, poly (methylsiloxane - co- ethylene oxide) and poly (methylsiloxane- g- ethylene oxide). In the blend system a high conductivity of 10^(-7)-10^(-5) Scm^(-1) at room temperature was obtained and the single-ion conductivity was deeply influenced by the content of the poly (lithium propionate methyl siioxane). The dc ionic conductivity of the flexible crosslinked films is more stable over time.展开更多

Based on butyl acrylate (BA), 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethylmethacrylate (TFEMA) and Si-PU as a seed emulsion, a novel core-shell type acrylic-polyurethane hybrid emulsion, containing siloxane and fluorine (F-Si-PU), was prepared by seeded emulsion polymerization. The contents of siloxane and fluorine were determined according to the feed ratio. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to identify the chain structures of Si-PU and F-Si-PU. Investigation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed the core-shell structure of F-Si-PU emulsion. Measurement results of water contact angle and the swelling ratio in water and n-octane for cured film showed that the water and the oil resistances for F-Si-PU had been significantly improved at a suitable content of fluorine and siloxane.展开更多

Consequently, e cient removal of VOSiC from biogas that is used as a biofuel is required. In this work, acetylated silica gel(Ac@SG) was synthesized,via treatment of microporous silica gel(SG) with acetic anhydride as an adsorbent, for removal of VOSiC from biogas,and characterized with XRD, SEM–EDS, N2-BET and FT-IR. This Ac@SG adsorbent exhibited a meso-/microporous structure and hydrophobic surface, indicating it was a more e cient adsorbent for removing hexamethyldisiloxane(L2) and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane(D4) from biogas samples than conventional SG. It was found that the adsorption capacities of Ac@SG reached 304 mg L2/g for hexamethyldisiloxane and 916 mg D4/g for octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane at lower temperatures in the experimental range, and water had no significant e ect on its absorption e ciency. The used Ac@SG could be easily regenerated by heating it at 110 °C, and the adsorption capacity of recycled Ac@SG for hexamethyldisiloxane and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane was kept constant in four recycle adsorption experiments.展开更多

Furthermore, the addition of siloxane could improve the reaction energy barrier and complex modulus, and it is believed that the self-healing is a viscosity driven process, consisting of two parts namely crack closure and properties recovery. Contact angle of ASP increased with the increasing siloxane content and it deduced that the siloxane could improve the hydrophobic performance of ASP and the ASP molecule model could simulate well the self-healing mechanism and hydrophobic performance of ASP.展开更多

Field emission scanning electron micrographs showed good dispersion of filler, formation of dense nanoporous honeycomb like structure and uniform ionic pathway in these hybrids. The porous membrane structure was responsible for the fine water retention capability and higher proton conductivity of the new hybrids. Increasing the amount of nanoparticles from 0.1 wt% to 2 wt% increased the tensile stress of acid doped PBSSA/PS-S/SiNPs nanocomposites from 65.7 MPa to 68.5 MPa. A relationship between nanofiller loading and thermal stability of the membranes was also experientially studied, as the glass transition temperature of phosphoric acid doped PBSSAJPS-S/SiNPs nanocomposites increased from 207℃ to 215 ℃. The membranes also had higher ion exchange capacity (IEC) around 2.01 mmol/g to 3.01 mmol/g. The novel membranes with high IEC value achieved high proton conductivity of 1.10-2.34 S/cm in a wide range of humidity values at 80 ~C which was higher than that of perfluorinated Nafion 117 membrane (1.1 × 10^-1 S/cm) at 80 ~C (94% RH). A H2/O2 fuel cell using the PBSSA/PS-S/SiNP 2 (IEC 3.01 retool/g) showed better performance than that of Nation 117 at 40 ℃ and 30% RH.展开更多

文摘With the tactful material design,skillful device engineering,and in-depth understanding of morphology optimization,organic solar cells (OSCs) have achieved considerable success.Therefore,OSCs have reached high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) exceeding 19%.Especially,continuously emerging new materials have been considered as one of the key factors to improve the PCEs of OSCs.Among molecular design strategies,side-chain engineering is an easy and commonly-used means which can optimize the solubility,alter intermolecular stacking arrangement,fine-tune the open circuit voltage (VOC),thus ultimately improve the performance.As hybrid side chains,silane and siloxane side chains have considerable effects,not only in increasing the carrier mobility and tuning the energy level,but also in affecting the crystallinity and molecular orientation.In this review,the latest developments in photovoltaic materials based on silane and siloxane side chains are presented to illustrate the structure-property relationships.The review comprehensively includes silane-side based polymer/small molecule donors;siloxane-side based polymer/small molecule donors,and polymer/small molecule acceptors.Then the similarities and differences between these two side chains are demonstrated.Finally,the possible applications and future prospects of silane and siloxane side chains are presented.

文摘Lithium(Li)metal anode holds great promise for high-energy-density rechargeable batteries.However,it suffers from the Li dendrites growth and uncontrollable side reactions with electrolyte due to the unstable solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)layer.Herein,we propose a facile strategy for the in-situ fabricate of organic-inorganic composite artificial SEI layers on Li surfaces,which consist of organic fluorinated siloxane and inorganic LiF-rich phases.The hybrid artificial SEI endows high mechanical strength(13.1 GPa)and Liþtransfer number(0.62).Such robust SEI protective layers can not only guide uniform nucleation and deposition of Li metal by facilitating uniform Li-ion distribution,but also prevent unfavourable side reactions.Accordingly,the protected metallic lithium anode(PMTFPS-Li)anode enables stable Li plating/stripping performance in symmetric cells for more than 300 h at 4 mA$h/cm^(2)under a high areal capacity of 4 mA/cm^(2).Moreover,the PMTFPS-Li/S cells could maintain more than 300 stable cycles at 0.5C and the PMTFPS-Li/LFP cells present excellent cycling performance(400 cycles at 1C)and enhanced rate capability(110.4 mA$h/g at 3 C).This work will inspire the design of artificial SEI on Li anodes for advanced Li metal batteries.

文摘The inevitable ion migration that occurs within ionic polycrystalline perovskite film results in inferior longterm stability of perovskite solar cells(PVSCs)that cannot meet the commercial requirements.Here,a novel poly(ionic liquid)named poly-1-vinyl-3-propyltrimethoxysilane imidazolium chloride(PImIL-SiO)is first introduced into perovskite to strengthen grain boundaries(GBs)and construct dual-functional barriers against internal ion migration and external moisture erosion for fabricating highly efficient and stable PVSCs.PImIL-SiO-containing imidazoliumcations and pendant siloxane groups contribute to passivation of bulk defects and anchoring of GBs,which effectively hinders ion migration channels,thus reducing perovskite film phase separation and device hysteresis.Furthermore,the intrinsically hydrophobic PImIL-SiO automatically forms a secondary protective barrier to endow the perovskite film with ultrahigh moisture corrosion resistance through the hydrolyzation reaction of siloxane with the permeated moisture.Consequently,the PImIL-SiO-modified PVSCs achieve a champion power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 22.46%,accompaniedby excellent thermal andhumidity stabilities where the non-encapsulated devices retain 87%of the initial PCE after aging at 85℃for 250 h and>85%of the initial PCE over 1100 h in air with a relative humidity of 50–70%.

文摘Landfill biogas is a potential alternative for fossil fuel,but the containing impurities,volatile methyl siloxanes(simplified as siloxanes),often cause serious problems in gas turbines when applied to generate electricity.In this research,a collecting and analyzing method based on solvent adsorption and purge and trap-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was established to determine the siloxanes in biogas from a landfill in Jinan,China,and adjacent ambient samples,such as soil,air,and leachate of the landfill.The results showed that,octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane(D4)and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane(D5)accounted for 63%of total siloxanes;and without considering D4 and D5,the order of detected siloxanes in concentration was found relating to Gibbs free energies of molecules,namely that higher abundant siloxane(except for D4 and D5)usually had lower Gibbs free energy.Additionally,the mass ratio between D4 and octamethyltrisiloxane(L3)in the bio gas varied with different garbage age in landfills,possibly revealing the breaking-down of larger siloxane molecules with time.The samples,which were collected from environmental samples adjacent to the landfill,such as soil,water,and air,presented much higher siloxane level than urban or rural area away from landfills.The current H2 S scrubber of the landfill biogas could decrease the total siloxanes from 10.7 to 5.75 mg/m^3 due to Fe2 O3 and a refrigerant drier in a purification system and cyclic siloxanes were more easily removed than linear ones.

文摘Siloxanes in biogas are detrimental to engine,turbine,fuel cell,etc.,thus it is necessary to remove siloxanes from biogas before biogas high-value utilization.At present,there are few domestic researches and related reports in view of siloxanes removal from biogas.This paper introduces the property of siloxanes as well as sampling and analysis method,and then presents the research progress of siloxanes removal from biogas.Three commercial technologies overseas are adsorption,absorption and cryogenic condensation.Among them,adsorption on activated carbon is the most widely used method.Other technologies,such as biological removal,catalytic processes,membranes,source controlling,etc.are under exploration and development.At last,this paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of siloxanes removal technologies as well as the applicability and analyzes the future research trend and emphasis.This paper could provide a reference in the field of biogas high-value utilization.
文摘New siloxane and sulfone containing poly(benzimidazole/sulfone/siloxane/amide) (PBSSA) has been prepared for the formation of hybrid membranes (PBSSA/PS-S/SiNPs) with sulfonated polystyrene (PS-S) and 0.1 wt%-2 wt% silica nanoparticles (SiNPs). Field emission scanning electron micrographs showed good dispersion of filler, formation of dense nanoporous honeycomb like structure and uniform ionic pathway in these hybrids. The porous membrane structure was responsible for the fine water retention capability and higher proton conductivity of the new hybrids. Increasing the amount of nanoparticles from 0.1 wt% to 2 wt% increased the tensile stress of acid doped PBSSA/PS-S/SiNPs nanocomposites from 65.7 MPa to 68.5 MPa. A relationship between nanofiller loading and thermal stability of the membranes was also experientially studied, as the glass transition temperature of phosphoric acid doped PBSSAJPS-S/SiNPs nanocomposites increased from 207℃ to 215 ℃. The membranes also had higher ion exchange capacity (IEC) around 2.01 mmol/g to 3.01 mmol/g. The novel membranes with high IEC value achieved high proton conductivity of 1.10-2.34 S/cm in a wide range of humidity values at 80 ~C which was higher than that of perfluorinated Nafion 117 membrane (1.1 × 10^-1 S/cm) at 80 ~C (94% RH). A H2/O2 fuel cell using the PBSSA/PS-S/SiNP 2 (IEC 3.01 retool/g) showed better performance than that of Nation 117 at 40 ℃ and 30% RH.
