Abstract
Lightweight, easily processed, and durable polymeric materials play a crucial role in wearable sensor devices. However, achieving simultaneously high strength and toughness remains a challenge. This study addresses this by utilizing an ion-specific effect to control crystalline domains, enabling the fabrication of a polymeric triboelectric material with tunable mechanical properties. The dense crystal-domain cross-linking enhances energy dissipation, resulting in a material boasting both high tensile strength (58.0 MPa) and toughness (198.8 MJ m-3), alongside a remarkable 416.7% fracture elongation and 545.0 MPa modulus. Leveraging these properties, the material is successfully integrated into wearable self-powered devices, enabling real-time feedback on human joint movement. This work presents a valuable strategy for overcoming the strength-toughness trade-off in polymeric materials, paving the way for their enhanced applicability and broader use in diverse sensing applications.

Abstract
In recent years, portable and wearable personal electronic devices have rapidly developed with increasing mass production and rising energy consumption, creating an energy crisis. Using batteries and supercapacitors with limited lifespans and environmental hazards drives the need to find new, environmentally friendly, and renewable sources. One idea is to harness the energy of human motion and convert it into electrical energy using energy harvesting devices-piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs), triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and hybrids. They are characterized by a wide variety of features, such as lightness, flexibility, low cost, richness of materials, and many more. These devices offer the opportunity to use new technologies such as IoT, AI or HMI and create smart self-powered sensors, actuators, and self-powered implantable/wearable devices. This review focuses on recent examples of PENGs, TENGs and hybrid devices for wearable and implantable self-powered systems. The basic mechanisms of operation, micro/nano-scale material selection and manufacturing processes of selected examples are discussed. Current challenges and the outlook for the future of the nanogenerators are also discussed.

Graphene remains of great interest in biomedical applications because of biocompatibility. Diseases relating to human senses interfere with life satisfaction and happiness. Therefore, the restoration by artificial organs or sensory devices may bring a bright future by the recovery of senses in patients. In this review, we update the most recent progress in graphene based sensors for mimicking human senses such as artificial retina for image sensors, artificial eardrums, gas sensors, chemical sensors, and tactile sensors. The brain-like processors are discussed based on conventional transistors as well as memristor related neuromorphic computing. The brain-machine interface is introduced for providing a single pathway. Besides, the artificial muscles based on graphene are summarized in the means of actuators in order to react to the physical world. Future opportunities remain for elevating the performances of human-like sensors and their clinical applications.

Abstract
The recovery of radioactive ions from high salinity low-level radioactive wastewater (LLRW) is important for the sustainable utilization of nuclear energy. Previous work primarily focuses on developing adsorbents that remove individual types of ions via physicochemical adsorption. Here, we report a new strategy for the simultaneous recovery of uranium (UO22+) and rhenium (ReO4-) as a non-radioactive surrogate of technetium from LLRW via electro-adsorption. Carboxyl functionalized covalent organic frameworks (COF-1) and cationic covalent organic frameworks (COF-2) were prepared as cathode and anode materials, respectively. The adsorption capacities were 411 mg U/g for COF-1 and 984 mg Re/g for COF-2 under 1.2 direct-current (DC) volts, 2.5 and 2.1 times higher than the capacities of the same adsorbents obtained by physicochemical adsorption. We also found that the electro-adsorption of uranium and rhenium follows pseudo-second-order kinetics with the adsorption rates of 0.45 and 1.05 g/mg/h at pH 7.0 and 298.15 K, again two times faster than those measured in physicochemical adsorption. Therefore, electro-adsorption improves both adsorption capacity and kinetics by maximizing the utility of available active sites in adsorbents and facilitating ion migration towards the adsorbents. The adsorption efficiencies for uranium and rhenium reached 65.9% and 89.2%, respectively, after electro-adsorption for 2 h. The high efficiencies can be maintained after five adsorption-desorption cycles. Furthermore, the electrodes showed high selectivity for uranium(VI) and rhenium(VII) and excellent salt resistance even in 1 mol/L NaCl solution. XPS studies revealed that covalent bonds were formed between uranium(VI) and carboxyl groups on COF-1, and rhenium(VII) was bound to cationic COF-2 through electrostatic interaction. Our asymmetric electrodes design can be extended to simultaneously and efficiently remove other types of radioactive or heavy metal ions from wastewater.

Abstract
With the miniaturization of wearable smart devices, the demand for portable and sustainable power sources is increasing. Herein, a flexible and lightweight triboelectric nanogenerator (PMC-TENG) was fabricated with MoS2/carbon nanotube (MC)-doped PVDF as the friction substrate based on electrospinning for harvesting random body motion energy under complex mechanical deformations. The charge density on the friction surface of PVDF nanofibers was found to increase significantly as the introduced electron acceptor of the MC composite, and nylon as a clothing material for another friction layer simplifies the structure of the device. Upon optimization of the electrospinning preparation process, the output voltage of the prepared PMC-TENG can reach >300 V and the instantaneous power can reach 0.484 mW (∼6 cm × 6 cm). At the same time, the PMC-TENG remains stable over 3000 cycles and has the ability to charge a capacitor. The flexible device demonstrates an excellent capability of converting mechanical energy to electrical energy. Therefore, this study has good prospects for application in the field of power supply for portable electronic devices and others.

Abstract
Cobalt oxides have been intensely explored as anodes of lithium-ion batteries to resolve the intrinsic disadvantages of low electrical conductivity and volume change. However, as a precursor of preparing cobalt oxides, Co(OH)2 has rarely been investigated as the anode material of lithium-ion batteries, perhaps because of the complexity of hydroxides. Hybridized Co(OH)2 nanomaterial structures were synthesized by the water bath method and exhibited high electrochemical performance. The initial discharge and charge capacities were 1703.2 and 1262.9 mAh/g at 200 mA/g, respectively. The reversible capacity was 1050 mAh/g after 150 cycles. The reversible capability was 1015 mAh/g at 800 mA/g and increased to 1630 mAh/g when driven back to 100 mA/g. The electrochemical reaction kinetics study shows that the lithium-ion diffusion-controlled contribution is dominant in the energy storage mechanism. The superior electrochemical performance could result from the water bath method and the hybridization of nanosheets and nanoparticles structures. These hybridized Co(OH)2 nanomaterial structures with high electrochemical performance are promising anodes for lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Current solutions developed for the purpose of in and on body (IOB) electrical stimulation (ES) lack autonomous qualities necessary for comfortable, practical, and self-dependent use. Consequently, recent focus has been placed on developing self-powered IOB therapeutic devices capable of generating therapeutic ES for human use. With the recent invention of the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), harnessing passive human biomechanical energy to develop self-powered systems has allowed for the introduction of novel therapeutic ES solutions. TENGs are especially effective at providing ES for IOB therapeutic systems given their bioconformability, low cost, simple manufacturability, and self-powering capabilities. Due to the key role of naturally induced electrical signals in many physiological functions, TENG-induced ES holds promise to provide a novel paradigm in therapeutic interventions. The aim here is to detail research on IOB TENG devices applied for ES-based therapy in the fields of regenerative medicine, neurology, rehabilitation, and pharmaceutical engineering. Furthermore, considering TENG-produced ES can be measured for sensing applications, this technology is paving the way to provide a fully autonomous personalized healthcare system, capable of IOB energy generation, sensing, and therapeutic intervention. Considering these grounds, it seems highly relevant to review TENG-ES research and applications, as they could constitute the foundation and future of personalized healthcare.

Abstract
Combination flexible and stretchable textiles with self-powered sensors bring a novel insight into wearable functional electronics and cyber security in the era of Internet of Things. This work presents a highly flexible and self-powered fully fabric-based triboelectric nanogenerator (F-TENG) with sandwiched structure for biomechanical energy harvesting and real-time biometric authentication. The prepared F-TENG can power a digital watch by low-frequency motion and respond to the pressure change by the fall of leaves. A self-powered wearable keyboard (SPWK) is also fabricated by integrating large-area F-TENG sensor arrays, which not only can trace and record electrophysiological signals, but also can identify individuals' typing characteristics by means of the Haar wavelet. Based on these merits, the SPWK has promising applications in the realm of wearable electronics, self-powered sensors, cyber security, and artificial intelligences.

Abstract
Tens of thousands of plastics produced by people have caused incalculable harm to the environment. At the same time, the consumption of energy is becoming more and more serious, and the use of fossil energy to generate electricity has caused further damage to the environment. It is a good way to recycle waste plastics and make energy collection and generation devices based on them. Here, a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) based entirely on waste plastic bags is proposed. Three types of TENGs, PA-PVC-TENG, PA-PE-TENG, and PVC-PE-TENG, were fabricated by selecting the most common PA, PVC, and PE plastic films as the triboelectric layer. The output performance was improved by gilding the back of the plastic films as a conductive electrode. Under different conditions, three different types of TENGs were tested. The PA-PVC-TENG was found to show the best output performance with an open-circuit voltage of 35.7 V, a short-circuit current of 5.85 μA, and a maximum output power density of 152.6 mW/m2. After further integration with supercapacitors, the integrated system can drive multiple commercial LEDs, and it can be used as an antitheft device to achieve early warning. This study realizes the integration of a TENG and energy storage devices, and as a TENG is based entirely on waste plastic bags, it not only realizes the recycling of plastics but also further realizes power generation, which can alleviate energy consumption to some extent.

An Improved SOC Control Strategy for Electric Vehicle Hybrid Energy Storage Systems. ENERGIES 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/en13205297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
In this paper, we propose an optimized power distribution method for hybrid electric energy storage systems for electric vehicles (EVs). The hybrid energy storage system (HESS) uses two isolated soft-switching symmetrical half-bridge bidirectional converters connected to the battery and supercapacitor (SC) as a composite structure of the protection structure. The bidirectional converter can precisely control the charge and discharge of the SC and battery. Spiral wound SCs with mesoporous carbon electrodes are used as the energy storage units of EVs. Under the 1050 operating conditions of the EV driving cycle, the SC acts as a “peak load transfer” with a charge and discharge current of 2isc~3ibat. An improved energy allocation strategy under state of charge (SOC) control is proposed, that enables SC to charge and discharge with a peak current of approximately 4ibat. Compared with the pure battery mode, the acceleration performance of the EV is improved by approximately 50%, and the energy loss is reduced by approximately 69%. This strategy accommodates different types of load curves, and helps improve the energy utilization rate and reduce the battery aging effect.

Abstract
CuS and Cu1.8S have been investigated respectively as anodes of lithium-ion batteries because of their abundant resources, no environment pollution, good electrical conductivity, and a stable discharge voltage plateau. In this work, CuS/Cu1.8S nanocomposites were firstly prepared simultaneously by the one-pot synthesis method at a relatively higher reaction temperature 200 °C. The CuS/Cu1.8S nanocomposites anodes exhibited a high initial discharge capacity, an excellent reversible rate capability, and remarkable cycle stability at a high current density, which could be due to the nano-size of the CuS/Cu1.8S nanocomposites and the assistance of Cu1.8S. The high electrochemical performance of the CuS/Cu1.8S nanocomposites indicated that the CuxS nanomaterials will be a potential lithium-ion battery anode.
