Facile self-assembly approach to construct a novel MXene-decorated nano-sized phase change material emulsion for thermal energy storage

In recent years, phase change material emulsions (PCMEs) with enhanced energy storage capacities and good flow characteristics have drawn significant attention. However, due to the thermodynamically unstable nature and tiny particle confinement, the nanomaterial modification strategies at PCM/water interface to improve stabilities and reduce supercooling of nano-sized PCMEs (NPCMEs) are very limited and challenging. Herein, we report a facile strategy for constructing MXene-decorated NPCME with good stability, little supercooling, and high thermal conductivity by self-assembly of MXene nanosheets at PCM/water interface. The concentrations of MXene have great influences on the average droplet diameters, stabilities, and thermophysical properties of the NPCMEs. The results show that the PCMs have been well dispersed into the water in the form of quasi-spherical droplets, with average droplet diameters of 242–805 nm. The thermal conductivity of 10 wt% n-tetradecane/water NPCME containing 9 mg ml^-1 MXene is 0.693 W m^-1·K^-1, achieving an enhancement by 15.5%, as compared to that of water. Besides, the MXene-decorated paraffin/water NPCMEs exhibit little supercooling and enhanced heat storage capacities. More importantly, this facile self-assembly strategy opens a new platform for preparing high-performance NPCMEs, which can be used as novel heat transfer fluids for thermal energy storage systems.

人造金刚石填充聚酰亚胺树脂基复合材料防刺性能

为研究树脂材料的防刺性能及防刺机制,利用手糊成型与热压法成型制备了手糊分层结构和均布结构层2种结构的人造金刚石填充聚酰亚胺树脂基复合树脂片,并探讨了人造金刚石粒径、填充体积分数对树脂片防刺性能的影响。研究结果表明:经过人造金刚石填充的聚酰亚胺树脂片的防刺性能得到提高,并且均布结构层分层复合结构的树脂片的防刺性能更好;随着人造金刚石粒径的减小,树脂片防刺性能出现先减小后增加的趋势,故防刺机制基本在于碰撞概率与树脂基的防挡;比较防刺力和消耗功发现,不同填充体积分数的单层防刺树脂片的防刺性能随人造金刚石填充体积分数的增加而逐渐降低,该趋势的成因在于复合树脂片的脆化与破坏;在颗粒等效粒径为300 μm、体积分数为10%时,其防刺性能最好。     

水氯镁石制备金属镁的过程集成与能量分析

以无水氯化镁和氧化镁作为中间产物，电解和热还原为两个关键方法，集成各种相关过程，构建了从水氯镁石到金属镁的综合过程网络，其中涉及24个物种、20个化学过程和25个工艺路线；建立了最低能耗分析模型用于简单和复合过程的能量分析；利用物质的标准生成焓和多温等压摩尔热容，计算得出全部反应过程及工艺过程的能量消耗和热量移除。结果表明基于还原法的最优路径是水氯镁石用石灰法转为氢氧化镁，进而煅烧成氧化镁，再铝热还原成金属镁，该过程能耗360.15 kJ/mol，放出热量–315.46 kJ/mol；基于电解法的最优路径是石灰乳法生成氢氧化镁，再煅烧成氧化镁，通过在熔融电解质中电解生成金属镁，该过程能耗738.54 kJ/mol，放出热量–135.42 kJ/mol。无水氯化镁制备耗能高，不在最优路径中。

Fabrication of Cu/graphite film/Cu sandwich composites with ultrahigh thermal conductivity for thermal management applications

Effective thermal management of electronic integrated devices with high powder density has become a serious issue, which requires materials with high thermal conductivity (TC). In order to solve the problem of weak bonding between graphite and Cu, a novel Cu/graphite film/Cu sandwich composite (Cu/GF/Cu composite) with ultrahigh TC was fabricated by electro-deposition. The micro-riveting structure was introduced to enhance the bonding strength between graphite film and deposited Cu layers by preparing a rectangular array of micro-holes on the graphite film before electro-deposition. TC and mechanical properties of the composites with different graphite volume fractions and current densities were investigated. The results showed that the TC enhancement generated by the micro-riveting structure for Cu/GF/Cu composites at low graphite content was more effective than that at high graphite content, and the strong texture orientation of deposited Cu resulted in high TC. Under the optimizing preparing condition, the highest in-plane TC reached 824.3 W·m⁻¹·K⁻¹, while the ultimate tensile strength of this composite was about four times higher than that of the graphite film.     

New ways to improve the damping properties in high‐performance thermoplastic vulcanizates

The incorporation of viscoelastic materials represents an effective strategy to reduce the vibratory level of structural components. Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) are a special type of viscoelastic material that combines the elastomeric properties of rubbers with the easy processing of thermoplastics. In the present work, we propose innovative ways to improve the damping properties of high‐performance TPVs by using rubbers with carboxylic functionalities. For that, TPVs from physical blends of carboxylated hydrogenated acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (XHNBR) and polyamide 6 (PA6) were prepared. The chain dynamics of different mixed crosslink systems containing peroxide, metal oxides and hindered phenolic antioxidants were investigated in order to find the most suitable strategy to design a high‐performance TPV system with upgraded damping properties. The results indicate that the damping performance of the TPV system can be tailored by controlling the type and magnitude of the bonding interactions between the mixed crosslink system and the XHNBR rubber phase. Therefore, this study demonstrates the potential of TPV systems containing carboxylic rubbers as high‐performance damping materials. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
