The β-SiC ceramic powders were characterized by TGA/DSC, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. The dielectric properties of β-SiC ceramic powders were investigated by measuring their complex permittivity by rectangle wave guide method in the frequency range of 8.2-18 GHz. The results show that both real part ε′ and imaginary part ε″ of complex permittivity increase with increasing pyrolysis temperature. The mechanism was proposed that order carbon formed at high temperature resulted in electron relaxation polarization and conductance loss, which contributes to the increase in complex permittivity.展开更多

CaO added AM50 Mg composites show the stable oxidation resistance, while AMS0 Mg alloys show the poor oxidation resistance. The effects of CaO addition on the burning resistance under ambient, nitrogen and dry air atmospheres were examined for CaO added AM50 Mg composites. With increasing CaO addition, the burning temperature increases under ambient, nitrogen and dry air atmospheres. The burning temperatures of small test specimen under all conditions greatly increase even by 0.3% CaO (mass fraction) addition into AM50 Mg alloys.展开更多

However, the supercapacitors are generally exposed under complex system or extreme temperature, such as electric vehicles and extremely cold area. Herein, we successfully fabricated a large-scale robust nanocarbon hybrid film consisting of reduced graphene oxide (rGO), carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and MnOx nano-flowers with the size up to 550 cm^2. The mechanical properties of the hybrid films depend on the ratio o f CNTs. The supercapacitors prepared with the hybrid films exhibit high flexibility and keep their performances in a temperature range from - 20 to 200℃. In addition, the devices display remarkable electrochemical and deformation stability at extrem e temperature. This strategy has a potential for the more efficient preparation of flexible electrode materials.展开更多

Supramolecular interactions have been extensively considered in the field of self-healing materials due to their excellent reversibility and sensitive responsiveness to environmental stimuli. However,development of a polymeric material with good mechanical performance as well as self-healing capacity is very challenging. In this study, we report a robust self-healing polyurethane(PU) elastomer polypropylene glycol-2-amino-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methylpyrimidin-4-ol(PPG-mUPy) by integrating ureidopyrimidone(UPy) motifs with a PPG segment with a well-defined architecture and microphase morphology.To balance the self-healing capacity and mechanical performance, a thermal-triggered switch of H-bonding is introduced. The quadruple H-bonded UPy dimeric moieties in the backbone induce phase separation to form a hard domain as well as enable further aggregation into microcrystals by virtue of the stacking interactions, which are stable in ambient temperature. This feature endows the PU with high mechanical strength. Meanwhile, a high healing efficiency can be realized, when the reversibility of the H-bond was unlocked from the stacking at higher temperature. An optimized sample PPG1000-mUPy50%with a good balance of mechanical performance(20.62 MPa of tensile strength) and healing efficiency(93% in tensile strength) was achieved. This strategy will provide a new idea for developing robust self-healing polymers.展开更多

In this study, the electrical performance and microstructure of Li and Mn codoped Aurivillius-type composite ceramics with a composition Ca_(0.99-x_Bi_(6.99+x)(Li Mn)_(0.01) Nb Ti_5O_(24)(x = 0–0.8) were systematically investigated. The results indicated that uniform intergrowth structure with a lattice similar to that of the end member CBT could be formed at a low x value(x < 0.4). Phase separation occurred when more A-site Ca^(2+) ions were replaced by Bi^(3+) ions. Nevertheless, all composite samples showed d_(33) values about 2 to 3 times of that of the constituent phase Ca Bi_4Ti_4O_(15) and Bi_3 Ti NbO_9 with still a high depolarization temperature. The performance of the samples was found to be related to the density and larger lattice distortion along the polarization a axis. The results also demonstrated that formation of the compound system was an effective way in improving the performance of Aurivillius-type high TC piezoelectric ceramics.展开更多
