Electrodeposited NiMoP catalysts on carbon felt for hydrogenation of indigo during electrocatalytically splitting water

Electrochemical hydrogenation is an environmentally favorable alternative to chemical reduction of indigo because it performs under ambient conditions using water as the donor of hydrogen. The purpose of this work is to fabricate electrocatalysts with high activity and durability for electrocatalytic hydrogenation of indigo. This work compares the performances of a series of Ni based catalysts (Ni, NiMo, NiP and NiMoP) on the substrate of carbon felt (CF) for electrolyzing water. Both the overpotential and Tafel slop are decreased as a function of the components as Ni > NiMo > NiP > NiMoP. Hence, NiMoP/CF shows the excellent performance based on the thermodynamics (η₁₀ = 239 mV) and kinetics (Tafel slope = 89.7 mV·dec^?1) for splitting water. Further, the electrode of NiMoP/CF was used for the electrocatalytic hydrogenation of indigo. The conversion efficiency and Faradic efficiency can be improved as 26.2% and 10.7% respectively. Furthermore, the dyeing behavior of the electrohydrogenated indigo is similar to that of conventional reduction methods. Thus, the present work offers foundational results and paves the way for the design of new catalytic materials for the reduction of vat dyes.     

The formation of fibrous structure of polyamide 6 induced by the three-step forming process and its prominent reinforcement in nitrile rubber

Nitrile rubber (NBR) blends with excellent performance have always been a hot research topic in petroleum field. Due to the excellent performance and compatibility of polyamide 6 (PA6), it provides an opportunity for the preparation of high-performance NBR/PA6 blends. In this article, NBR/PA6 blends were prepared by the three-step molding process. Experimentally, it was found that PA6 has a prominent reinforcement effect in NBR matrix. The variation of this mechanical property was investigated from different aspects of the crystal structure, crystallinities, phase morphology, and so on. It can be cleared that the formation of fibrous structure of PA6 phase is the main factor for reinforcement of the polymer blends. Meanwhile, the formation mechanism of the special phase structure induced by the three-step process is deeply expounded and its structural evolution schematic is established. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Herein, attention is paid to the jumping mechanisms of soft actuators assembled from various soft smarting materials and powered by different stimulus sources. The challenges and prospects of soft jumping actuators are also discussed. It is hoped that this review will contribute to the further development of soft jumping actuators and broaden their practical applications.     

Relaxation-Induced Significant Room-Temperature Dielectric Pulsing Effects

Thermo-responsive dielectric materials are in urgent demand owing to the rapid development of smart electronic/electrical systems. Although different types and structures of thermally responsive dielectric materials have been continuously reported, their dielectric response behaviors all originate from thermodynamic phase transitions. Herein, it is demonstrated that structural relaxation in poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), a non-thermodynamic phase transition, can induce a significant thermal dielectric pulse at room temperature. The dielectric pulse strength of up to 6.3 × 10⁵ at 20 Hz, with a dielectric pulsing temperature of 24 °C, is achieved from polyethylene glycol (PEG)-PVDF coaxial nanofibrous films (PVDF@PEG), fabricated via a continuous blow spinning method. Moreover, the films exhibit excellent flexibility, adjustable strength and toughness, switchable hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, and effective thermal management capability. The relaxation-induced dielectric pulsing effect, outstanding multifunctionality, and simple preparation combine to promote further scalability and prospects of PVDF@PEG. In particular, the work contributes to the discovery of the relaxation-induced dielectric response mechanism, which provides a new strategy for the generation of thermo-responsive dielectric materials.
