Mechanical Characterization of Rubber Latex-Based Carpets (Hevea bresiliensis): Influence of Rubber Latex Content and Fiber Fabrics (Cotton and Mosquito Nets) on Wear Resistance of Rubber Latex-Based Carpets

This work focuses on the development of carpets from sand, fabrics of cotton fiber and mosquito nets and rubber latex. Following a study on the choice of the best formulations, the quantity of rubber latex used for shaping varies between 14% and 18% (latex/sand + latex ratio) for the carpet with the fabric of mosquito nets and between 16% and 18% for the one made with the fabric of cotton fiber. Thus, with a mixture of sand, fiber fabrics (cotton and mosquito nets) and rubber latex, carpets were developed. In addition, the wear test carried out on these samples indicates that it is possible to produce carpets with the new material made of rubber sand and latex: SABLATEX At room temperature. Following the characterization test, it resorts to only 16% latex with cotton fiber fabric, allowing to have carpets with good mechanical characteristics.

Bioinspired Multiscale Wrinkling Patterns on Curved Substrates:An Overview

The surface wrinkling of biological tissues is ubiquitous in nature.Accumulating evidence suggests that the mechanical force plays a significant role in shaping the biological morphologies.Controlled wrinkling has been demonstrated to be able to spontaneously form rich multiscale patterns,on either planar or curved surfaces.The surface wrinkling on planar substrates has been investigated thoroughly during the past decades.However,most wrinkling morphologies in nature are based on the curved biological surfaces and the research of controllable patterning on curved substrates still remains weak.The study of wrinkling on curved substrates is critical for understanding the biological growth,developing threedimensional(3D)or four-dimensional(4D)fabrication techniques,and creating novel topographic patterns.In this review,fundamental wrinkling mechanics and recent advances in both fabrications and applications of the wrinkling patterns on curved substrates are summarized.The mechanics behind the wrinkles is compared between the planar and the curved cases.Beyond the film thickness,modulus ratio,and mismatch strain,the substrate curvature is one more significant parameter controlling the surface wrinkling.Curved substrates can be both solid and hollow with various 3D geometries across multiple length scales.Up to date,the wrinkling morphologies on solid/hollow core-shell spheres and cylinders have been simulated and selectively produced.Emerging applications of the curved topographic patterns have been found in smart wetting surfaces,cell culture interfaces,healthcare materials,and actuators,which may accelerate the development of artificial organs,stimuli-responsive devices,and micro/nano fabrications with higher dimensions.

Rational Design of Layered SnS2 on Ultralight Graphene Fiber Fabrics as Binder-Free Anodes for Enhanced Practical Capacity of Sodium-Ion Batteries

Generally,the practical capacity of an electrode should include the weight of non-active components such as current collector,polymer binder,and conductive additives,which were as high as 70 wt%in current reported works,seriously limiting the practical capacity.This work pioneered the usage of ultralight reduced graphene fiber(rGF)fabrics as conductive scaffolds,aiming to reduce the weight of nonactive components and enhance the practical capacity.Ultrathin SnS2 nanosheets/rGF hybrids were prepared and used as binder-free electrodes of sodium-ion batteries(SIBs).The interfused graphene fibers endow the electrode a porous,continuous,and conductive network.The in situ phase transformation from SnO2 to SnS2 could preserve the strong interfacial interactions between SnS2 and graphene.Benefitting from these,the designed binder-free electrode delivers a high specific capacity of 500 mAh g?1 after 500 cycles at a current rate of 0.5 A g?1 with almost 100%Coulombic efficiency.Furthermore,the weight percentage of SnS2 in the whole electrode could reach up to 67.2 wt%,much higher than that of common electrode configurations using Cu foil,Al foil,or carbon cloth,significantly highlighting the ultralight characters and advantages of the rGF fabrics for using as binder-free electrodes of SIBs.

Femtosecond laser fabrication of nanograting-based distributed fiber sensors for extreme environmental applications

The femtosecond laser has emerged as a powerful tool for micro-and nanoscale device fabrication. Through nonlinear ionization processes, nanometer-sized material modifications can be inscribed in transparent materials for device fabrication. This paper describes femtosecond precision inscription of nanograting in silica fiber cores to form both distributed and point fiber sensors for sensing applications in extreme environmental conditions. Through the use of scanning electron microscope imaging and laser processing optimization,high-temperature stable, Type II femtosecond laser modifications were continuously inscribed,point by point, with only an insertion loss at 1 d B m~(-1) or 0.001 d B per point sensor device.High-temperature performance of fiber sensors was tested at 1000℃, which showed a temperature fluctuation of ±5.5℃ over 5 days. The low laser-induced insertion loss in optical fibers enabled the fabrication of a 1.4 m, radiation-resilient distributed fiber sensor. The in-pile testing of the distributed fiber sensor further showed that fiber sensors can execute stable and distributed temperature measurements in extreme radiation environments. Overall, this paper demonstrates that femtosecond-laser-fabricated fiber sensors are suitable measurement devices for applications in extreme environments.

Effect of Twisted Fiber on Flexural Property and Microstructure of Woven Fabric Reinforced Composite

Two kinds of 2.5D deep straight-joint structure ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene（UHMWPE）（twisted and original） fibers woven fabric reinforced epoxy resin composites were prepared by the hand lay-up method. Subsequently, the flexural property, microstructures, and failure mechanisms of the composites were also investigated. The average flexural strength of 2.5D deep bend-joint structure twisted fiber and original fiber woven fabric composites were 176.66 MPa and 204.45 MPa, respectively. The results of the characteristics indicated that the twist was the main factor which affected the flexural performance. Flexural property vitally relied on the strength of the fiber itself. Twist decreased the strength of the yarns, which meant that when the mechanical property of woven fabric reinforced composites was improved, the yarns must be kept straight in the woven fabric. The study are extremely valuable to guide the improvement of the mechanical property of the woven fabric reinforced composites.

The fast and high response detection of neurotoxic H_(2)S is of great importance for the environment.In this paper,directly electrospinning technology on the ceramic tube is developed to improve the response of H_(2)S detector based on superlong SnO_(2)fibers.The submillimeter continuous fibers are deposited directly on ceramic tubes by in-situ electrospinning method and can keep morphology of fibers during calcination.By employing this technology,CuO-doped SnO_(2)fiber H_(2)S detectors are fabricated,and 10%atom CuO-doped SnO_(2)H_(2)S detector shows the highest response of 40 toward 1 ppm H_(2)S at 150℃while the response is only 3.6 for the H_(2)S detector prepared in traditional route.In addition,the in-situ electrospinning H_(2)S detectors show faster response and recovery compared to the H_(2)S detectors fabricated by the conventional way.The high and fast response of H_(2)S detectors based on in-situ electrospinning can be ascribed to the continuous fiber structure and CuO modification.The present in-situ electrospinning technology may provide a new strategy for the development of other gasdetectors and bio-detectors with fast and high response.
