Effects of the surfactants hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide（CTAB） and polyvinylpyrrolidone（PVP） on the morphology and electrochemical performance of the composite were investigated. Powder X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM） and nitrogen adsorption-desorption experiment were employed to characterize the microstructures and morphologies of the composite. Meanwhile, the electrochemical performances of the samples were studied using cyclic voltammetry（CV）, galvanostatic charge-discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS）. The results show that the porous Co3O4/Cu O-CTAB nanoplates own the best performance and exhibits a high specific capacitance of 398 F/g at 1 A/g with almost 100% capacitance retention over 2000 cycles, and it retains 90% of capacitance at 10 A/g.展开更多

Micro PCMs containing paraffin with a melting point of 55 ℃ in polystyrene-divinylbenzene(P(St-DVB)) were prepared by suspension-like polymerization. The characterization of microcapsules by FTIR, DSC and TG proved that paraffin had been successfully encapsulated and the proportion of encapsulated paraffin was 49.8%—58.5%. The effects of polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP) with different molecular weights serving as the suspension stabilizer were investigated in detail. The results illustrated that the type of PVP had a significant influence on the particle size of Micro PCMs. The average diameter of Micro PCMs decreased with an increasing molecular weight of PVP. Moreover, the crosslinker-postaddition method was adopted in this study to improve the morphology of P(St-DVB) Micro PCMs. SEM images showed that when the DVB was added at the 2nd hour of polymerization the morphology of obtained P(St-DVB) Micro PCMs exhibited good sphericity since it could avoid the influence of cross-linker agent during the nucleation period.展开更多

Polyvinylpyrrolidone （PVP） is introduced to modify the interface of substrate. The transmittance and bending performance are improved by optimizing the number of spraying times and the solution concentration and controlling the annealing time. The spraying times of 20, the concentration of 2 mg/mL and the annealing time of 10 min are chosen to fabricate the PVP/AgNWs films. The transmittance of PVP/AgNWs films is 53.4%----67.9% at 380---780 nm, and the sheet resistance is 30 f~/n which is equivalent to that of commercial indium tin oxide （1TO）. During cyclic bending tests to 500 cycles with bending radius of 5 ram, the changes of resistivity are negligible. The performance of PVP/AgNW transparent electrodes has little change after being exposed to the normal environment for 1 000 h. The adhesion to polymeric substrate and the ability to endure bending stress in AgNWs network films are both significantly improved by introducing PVP. Spraying method makes AgNWs form a stratified structure on large-area polymer substrates, and the vacuum annealing method is used to weld the AgNWs together at junctions and substrates, which can improve the electrical conductivity. The experimental results indicate that PVP/AgNW transpar- ent electrodes can be used as transparent conductive electrodes in flexible organic light emitting diodes （OLEDs）.展开更多
