Borophene reinforcing copper matrix composites: Preparation and mechanical properties

Plant extract-based liquid phase exfoliation enables one-step green production of two-dimensional heterostructure nanohybrids capable of dramatic improvement in polymer properties

“…When combined in a polymer matrix, the resulting composite film balances between the mechanical properties of FFG and FFB nanosheets, including %E. A similar trend was found by Wu et al , 56 who reported that the mechanical properties of copper-based films were improved by adding borophene and copper in a mass ratio of 1 : 25.…”

Strain-induced electronic structures and band-gap of few-layer AgInP2S6

“…however, during the stretching process, most of the peak positions did not change significantly, indicating that the structure of the few-layer AgInP 2 S 6 was not destroyed under the action of strain. The peak at b and e have a slight blue shift, which may be caused by the suppression of the bond vibration of P 2 S 6 and the reduction of the vibration frequency during stretching [31][32][33], showing the application prospects in flexible devices [34].…”

Review of properties, synthesis, and energy applications of borophene, a novel boron-based 2D material

“…IIn recent years, the in-situ MTD of NaBH 4 has been used to manufacture freestanding, large-scale, ultrastable hydrogenated borophene layers. By using insitu MTD of NaBH 4 powder in an atmosphere rich in hydrogen, Wu et al [49] created metal matrix composites consisting of borophene. By using spark plasma sintering, 3D borophene sheet network/ copper (BSN/Cu) composites have been created.…”

“…In conclusion, the addition of borophene greatly enhances the mechanical characteristics of the composites. Because borophene and copper have a greater interfacial attraction than graphene and copper, they can bond to the material without breaking [49]. Hou et al [30] synthesized hydrogenated borophenes using in situ MTD of sodium borohydride.…”
