NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:331. [PMID: 38392704 PMCID: PMC10893155 DOI: 10.3390/nano14040331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
With the integration and miniaturization of chips, there is an increasing demand for improved heat dissipation. However, the low thermal conductivity (TC) of polymers, which are commonly used in chip packaging, has seriously limited the development of chips. To address this limitation, researchers have recently shown considerable interest in incorporating high-TC fillers into polymers to fabricate thermally conductive composites. Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has emerged as a promising filler candidate due to its high-TC and excellent electrical insulation. This review comprehensively outlines the design strategies for using h-BN as a high-TC filler and covers intrinsic TC and morphology effects, functionalization methods, and the construction of three-dimensional (3D) thermal conduction networks. Additionally, it introduces some experimental TC measurement techniques of composites and theoretical computational simulations for composite design. Finally, the review summarizes some effective strategies and possible challenges for the design of h-BN fillers. This review provides researchers in the field of thermally conductive polymeric composites with a comprehensive understanding of thermal conduction and constructive guidance on h-BN design.

Abstract
Research on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) 2-dimensional nanostructures has gained traction due to their unique chemical, thermal, and electronic properties. However, to make use of these exceptional properties and fabricate macroscopic materials, hBN often needs to be exfoliated and dispersed in a solvent. In this review, we provide an overview of the many different methods that have been used for dispersing hBN. The approaches that will be covered in this review include solvents, covalent functionalization, acids and bases, surfactants and polymers, biomolecules, intercalating agents, and thermal expansion. The properties of the exfoliated sheets obtained and the dispersions are discussed, and an overview of the work in the field throughout the years is provided.

Abstract
For effective heat dissipation in portable electronics, there is a great demand for lightweight and flexible films with superior thermal transport properties. Despite extensive efforts, enhancing the intrinsic low thermal conductivity of polymers while simultaneously maintaining their flexibility is difficult to achieve due to the dilemma of quarrying appropriate filler loading. Herein, a cellulose nanofiber-based film with high in-plane thermal conductivity up to 72.53 W m-1 K-1 was obtained by harnessing the advantage of functionalized boron nitride nanosheets (f-BNNS) and black phosphorene (BP) via the vacuum filtration process. Besides, our unique design based on the electrostatic coupling of black phosphorene and functionalized boron nitride nanosheets significantly reduced the interfacial thermal resistance of the composite films. This work offers new insights into establishing a facile, yet efficient approach to preparing high thermal conductive heat spreaders.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 621:222-231. [PMID: 35461137 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2022.04.051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2022] [Revised: 04/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Liquid organic electrolytes commonly employed in commercial Li-ion batteries suffer from safety issues such as flammability and explosions. Replacing liquid electrolytes with nonflammable electrolytes has become increasingly attractive in the development of safe, high-energy Li-metal batteries (LMBs). In this work, nonflammable, robust, and flexible composite polymer-polymer electrolytes (PPEs) were successfully fabricated by flame-retardant solution casting with polyimide (PI) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The optimized nonflammable PPEs (e.g., PPE-50) demonstrate not only good mechanical properties (i.e., a high tensile strength of 29.6 MPa with an elongation at break of 87.2%), but also high Li salts dissolubility, the former of which ensures the suppression of Li dendrites, while the latter further improves the ionic conductivity (∼1.86 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 30 °C). The resulting symmetric cells (Li|PPE-50|Li) offer excellent Li stripping and plating stability for 1000 h at 0.5 mA cm-2/0.25 mAh cm-2 and 600 h at 2.0 mA cm-2/1.0 mAh cm-2. In addition, the LiFePO4|PPE-50|Li half cells show high cycling performance (e.g., a reversible discharge capacity of 135.9 mAh g-1 after 300 cycles at 1C) and rate capability (e.g., 117.2 mAh g-1 at 4C). The PPE-50 is also compatible with a high-voltage cathode (e.g., LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2), and the resulting batteries demonstrate long-term cycling stability with a high cut-off voltage of 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+. Because of the incorporation of a mechanically robust and thermally stable PI, a polar PVDF, and flame-retardant trimethyl phosphate (TMP) within PPEs, as well as the coordination between Li salts and TMP, and the interaction between Li salts and polymers (especially between Li bis(oxalato)borate) and PI, as well as the bis(oxalato)borate anion and PI), PPEs show great potential for practical and high-energy LMBs without safety concerns.

Abstract
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and exfoliated nanosheets (BNNs) not only resemble their carbon counterparts graphite and graphene nanosheets in structural configurations and many excellent materials characteristics, especially the ultra-high thermal conductivity, but also offer other unique properties such as being electrically insulating and extreme chemical stability and oxidation resistance even at elevated temperatures. In fact, BNNs as a special class of 2-D nanomaterials have been widely pursued for technological applications that are beyond the reach of their carbon counterparts. Highlighted in this article are significant recent advances in the development of more effective and efficient exfoliation techniques for high-quality BNNs, the understanding of their characteristic properties, and the use of BNNs in polymeric nanocomposites for thermally conductive yet electrically insulating materials and systems. Major challenges and opportunities for further advances in the relevant research field are also discussed.

Abstract
The nanofriction coefficient of ionic liquids (ILs), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM][BF4]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]), on the surfaces of mica and graphite was investigated using atomic force microscopy (AFM). A pronounced layered spatial distribution was found in the IL film formed on the solid substrates and can be divided into 3 well distinguishable regions exhibiting different physical properties with increasing distance from the substrate. We found that the friction coefficient (μ) increases monotonically as the layering thickness decreases, no matter what the thickness of the bulk IL is. This suggests that the layering assembled IL at solid surfaces is more important than the bulk phase in determining the magnitude of the nanoscale friction. The increase in the friction coefficient as the layering thickness decreases is most likely attributed to the assembled ordered IL layers closer to the substrate surfaces having a greater activation barrier for unlocking the surfaces to allow shear.

Abstract
The composite GeP3/C@rGO as a sodium ion battery anode material was fabricated by introducing a carbon matrix into GeP3 through high-energy ball milling, followed by encapsulating the resultant composite with graphene via a solution-based ultrasonic method. To delineate the individual role of carbon matrix and graphene, material characterization and electrochemical analyses were performed for GeP3/C@rGO and three other samples: bare GeP3, GeP3 with graphene coating (GeP3@rGO), and GeP3 with carbon matrix (GeP3/C). GeP3/C@rGO exhibits the highest electric conductivity (5.89 × 10-1 S cm-1) and the largest surface area (167.85 m2 g-1) among the four samples. The as-prepared GeP3/C@rGO delivered a reversible high capacity of 1084 mA h g-1 at 50 mA g-1, excellent rate capacity (435.4 mA h g-1 at a high rate of 5 A g-1), and long-term cycling stability (400 cycles with a reversible capacity of 823.3 mA h g-1 at 0.2 A g-1), all of which outperform the other three samples. The kinetics investigation reveals a "pseudocapacitive behavior" in GeP3/C and GeP3/C@rGO, where solely faradic reactions took place in bare GeP3 and GeP3@rGO with a typical "battery behavior". Based on ex-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ex-situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, the carbon matrix serves to activate and stabilize the interior of the composite, while the graphene protects and restrains the exterior surface. Benefiting from the synergistic combination of these two components, GeP3/C@rGO achieved extremely stable cycling stability as well as outstanding rate performance.

A strongly 'pinned' ionic liquid (IL, [BMIM][PF6]) film on a silicon (Si) surface via carbon capsuled Fe3O4 core-shell (Fe3O4@C) nanoparticles is achieved, revealing excellent friction-reducing ability at a high load. The adhesion force is measured to be ∼198 nN at the Fe3O4@C-Si interface by the Fe3O4@C colloidal AFM tip, which is stronger than that at both Fe3O4@C-Fe3O4@C (∼60 nN) and IL-Si (∼10 nN) interfaces, indicating a strong 'normal pin-force' towards the Si substrate. The resulting strengthened force enables the formation of lateral IL networks via the dipole-dipole attractions among Fe3O4 cores. The observed blue shift of the characteristic band related to the IL anion in the ATR-FTIR spectra confirmed the enhanced interaction. The N-Si, P-O chemical bonds formed as a result of the IL interactions with the Si substrate confirmed by XPS spectroscopy suggested that the IL lay on the Si plane. This orientation is favorable for Fe3O4@C nanoparticles to exert 'normal pin-force' and press the IL film strongly onto surfaces. The IL ions/clusters are thus anchored by these Fe3O4@C 'pins' onto the substrate to form a dense film, resulting in a smaller interaction size parameter, which is responsible for the reduced friction coefficient μ.

Abstract
Thin-film electronics are urged to be directly laminated onto human skin for reliable, sensitive biosensing together with feedback transdermal therapy, their self-power supply using the thermoelectric and moisture-induced-electric effects also has gained great attention (skin and on-skin electronics (On-skinE) themselves are energy storehouses). However, "thin-film" On-skinE 1) cannot install "bulky" heatsinks or sweat transport channels, but the output power of thermoelectric generator and moisture-induced-electric generator relies on the temperature difference (∆T ) across generator and the ambient humidity (AH), respectively; 2) lack a routing and accumulation of sweat for biosensing, lack targeted delivery of drugs for precise transdermal therapy; and 3) need insulation between the heat-generating unit and heat-sensitive unit. Here, two breathable nanowood biofilms are demonstrated, which can help insulate between units and guide the heat and sweat to another in-plane direction. The transparent biofilms achieve record-high transport// /transport⊥ (//: along cellulose nanofiber alignment direction, ⊥: perpendicular direction) of heat (925%) and sweat (338%), winning applications emphasizing on ∆T/AH-dependent output power and "reliable" biosensing. The porous biofilms are competent in applications where "sensitive" biosensing (transporting// sweat up to 11.25 mm s-1 at the 1st second), "insulating" between units, and "targeted" delivery of saline-soluble drugs are of uppermost priority.

Abstract
We have infused graphene/ionic liquid into block copolymer homoporous membranes (HOMEs), which have highly ordered uniform cylindrical nanopores, to form compact, dense, and continuous graphene/ionic liquid (Gr/IL) lubricating layers at interfaces, enabling a reduction in the friction coefficient. Raman and XPS analyses, confirmed the parallel alignment of the cation of ILs on graphene by the π-π stacking interaction of the imidazolium ring with the graphene layer. This alignment loosens the lattice spacing of Gr in Gr/ILs, leading to a larger lattice spacing of 0.36 nm in Gr of Gr/ILs hybrids than the pristine Gr (0.33 nm). The loose graphene layers, which are caused by the coexistence of graphene and ILs, would make the sliding easier, and favor the lubrication. An increase in the friction coefficient was observed on ILs-infused block copolymer HOMEs, as compared to Gr/ILs-infused ones, due to the absence of Gr and the unstably formed ILs film. Gr/ILs-infused block copolymer HOMEs also exhibit much smaller residual indentation depth and peak indentation depth in comparison with ILs-infused ones. This indicates that the existence of stably supported Gr/ILs hybrid liquid films aids the reduction of the friction coefficient by preventing the thinning of the lubricant layer and exposure of the underlying block copolymer HOMEs.
