In this paper, bulk polymeric composites with staggered orientation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in polymer matrix were prepared by means of a macro layer-by-layer (MLBL) method, while an alternating current (AC) electric field was applied for inducing alignment of the CNTs. Test results verified that there existed a relationship between conductive capacity of the composites and orientation of the CNTs in matrix. Conductivity of the composites containing aligned CNTs represented a dependency on time and testing history on the composite specimens. Among the composites with different orientation types of CNTs in the matrices, the composite specimens including staggered orientation of CNTs in polymer matrix demonstrated the most outstanding electric conductivity and showed similar conductive properties in the two directions of the CNT alignment.

Sluggish and uneven mass transport in separators significantly accelerates lithium metal batteries (LMBs) degradation. Here, via scaffold-coating synergistic strategy, composite separator integrating heat-resistant, polar aramid nanofiber (ANF) porous scaffold with ultrasmall hollow covalent triazine framework nanosphere (SCTF) coating is fabricated to boost the cycling performance of LMBs across diverse operating conditions. The highly porous ANF layer serves as robust electrolyte reservoir, while the SCTF layer functions as efficient ion redistributor leveraging its extensive interconnected pathways present within staggered layers of intrinsic nanopores with intra- and interparticle open spaces.

For extended period, research in personal thermal camouflage (PTM) has received limited attention and still struggle with multiband compatibility. Here, molecular-level color modification is imparted to polyamide 66 (PA66) via a one-step dope-dyeing electrospinning process, resulting in the first instance of visible (VIS) colored PA66 nonwovens without sacrificing their infrared (IR) transparency. The dope-dyed PA66 nanofibrous membrane enables simultaneous customization of VIS chromaticity and IR emissivity through the systematic tuning of its structural parameters, thereby expanding its applicability in diverse camouflage scenarios.

Glycans modify protein, lipid, and even RNA molecules to form the regulatory outer coat on cells called the glycocalyx. The changes in glycosylation have been linked to the initiation and progression of many diseases. Herein, we report a DIA-based glycomic workflow, termed GlycanDIA, to identify and quantify glycans with high sensitivity and precision.

While the metal halide perovskite materials are emerging as potentially promising photocatalysts, they still suffer from the intrinsic instability, seriously hampering their further practical applications. In this study, a perovskite-based composite with a sandwich structure is first established to realize the encapsulation of individual octylamine-capped MAPbBr (OM-PE) quantum dots (QDs), and the Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67 (ZIF-67) isolates the individual OM-PE@PbBrOH QDs (2 nm) to preserve their unique optoelectronic properties while preventing degradation from environmental factors. The resulting sandwich composite was proved to be a staggered-gap heterostructure with a p-n junction, in which the PbBrOH layer acted as a water-resisting covering and ZIF-67 layer promoted the electron mobility.

Low ionic conductivity is a major obstacle for polymer solid-state electrolytes. In response to this issue, a design concept of enhanced regional electric potential difference (EREPD) is proposed to modulate the interaction of nanofillers with other components in the composite polymer solid-state electrolytes (CPSEs). While ensuring the periodic structure of the graphdiyne (GDY) backbone, methoxy-substituted GDY (OGDY) is prepared by an asymmetric substitution strategy, which increases the electric potential differences within each repeating unit of GDY.
