It is key important to stop bleeding and anti-infection for the people with trauma. Here, an anisotropic Janus mesoporous silica nanosheet (MSNS) with different functional groups were designed and prepared....
The filled sheet‐like inorganic materials can usually improve the anticorrosion performance of the coating. Herein, the Janus nanosheets (JNSs) with two‐dimensional structure were prepared by phase separation method, modified by polyaniline (PANI) on the amino side of JNSs and composited with epoxy resin (EP). Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), thermogravimetry (TG) were used to characterize the morphology and chemical structure of JNSs and PANI@JNSs. The anti‐corrosion performance of coatings was measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and salt spray experiment. Compared with pure EP, the |Z|0.01Hz of 0.5%‐JNSs/EP coating and that of 0.5%‐PANI@JNSs/EP coating reached 5.6 × 108 and 5.4× 1010 Ω·cm2 after immersed for 35 days, nearly 2 and 4 orders of magnitude higher than pure EP respectively. The excellent anti‐corrosion performance of 0.5%‐PANI@JNSs/EP coating is due to the synergistic effect of physical barrier effect of PANI@JNSs, interfacial interaction between PANI@JNSs and epoxy resin and passivation effect of PANI. Moreover, PANI@JNSs possess both strengthening and toughening effects on composite coating. Janus nanosheets provide a new idea and method for preparing high‐performance anticorrosive materials.
Dual physical network hydrogel possesses robust energy dissipation mechanism. However, the demanding conditions of the second monomer radical polymerization aren't benefit for the dispersion of conductive filler. Moreover, the stable and sensitive response under extreme environment puts forward the requirements for mechanical, antifreezing and moisture retention properties. Herein, a dual physical networks hydrogel (polyacrylic acid-chitosan-graphene/glycerol, noted as PAA-CS-G/Gly) was prepared rapidly (<0.5 h) without chemical crosslinking agents at room temperature. The rapid gelation, ionic coordination of Ag + together with certain viscosity chitosan promoted the dispersion of graphene. PAA-CS-G/Gly showed ultra-stretchable properties ($2500%), good toughness (3.11 MJ/m 3 ), breaking strength (0.27 MPa) and fatigue resistance. PAA-CS-G/Gly had good adhesion properties, outstanding tolerance for freezing (À80 C) and moisture retention. More importantly, PAA-CS-G/Gly strain sensor had excellent sensitivity (GF, up to 9.449) at 300% $ 900% strain. It could sensitively detect human joint movements and even subtle activities such as talking and swallowing. PAA-CS-G/Gly hydrogel is expected to adhere directly to the human body for flexible monitoring of human size movement under extreme environmental conditions.
Natural products used as plasticizer can inhibit its migration in rubber and improve the dispersion of inorganic power. Herein, styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) was plasticized by poly‐cardanol (PCA) originated from the Friedel–Crafts alkylation without solvent of cardanol which was extracted from abandoned cashew nut shell. Results show that the Mooney viscosity of SBR/PCA compounds decreases from 45.8 to 34.7 and Tg from −52°C to −56.3°C when PCA is added from 0 to 30 phr. Moreover, the elongation at break of SBR contained 30 phr PCA increases by 515% compared with SBR. PCA also shows amphiphilic, which is verified by the improved dispersion of SiO2 in SBR/PCA compounds. The swelling ratio of SBR/PCA/SiO2 vulcanized rubber decreases and the crosslinking density increases. Meanwhile, the elongation at break of SBR70‐40 vulcanized rubber is 17.3%, which is higher than that of SBR100‐40 vulcanized rubber. PCA, acted as plasticizer and compatibilizer, provides a simple and green way for the application of natural products in the rubber industry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
