Optimizing the electrode/electrolyte interface structure is the key to realizing high-voltage Li-metal batteries (LMBs). Herein, a functional electrolyte is introduced to synergetically regulate the interface layer structures on the high-voltage cathode and the Li-metal anode. Saccharin sodium (NaSH) as a multifunctional electrolyte additive is employed in fluorinated solvent-based electrolyte (FBE) for robust interphase layer construction.

A driver safety assisting system is essential to reduce the probability of traffic accidents. But most of the existing driver safety assisting systems are simple reminders that cannot improve the driver's driving status. This paper proposes a driver safety assisting system to reduce the driver's fatigue degree by the light with different wavelengths that affect people's moods.

High sensitivity and capturing ratio are strongly demanded for surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors when applied in detection of small molecules. Herein, an SPR sensor is combined with a novel smart material, namely, MoS nanoflowers (MNFs), to demonstrate programmable adsorption/desorption of small bipolar molecules, i.e.

For slow release of tea tree oil (TTO), TTO were encapsulated by urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin via polymerisation. The effects of curing time and drying condition on particle size, and TTO loading of the TTO/UF microcapsules were investigated. The results indicated that TTO/UF resin microcapsules with curing time of 80 min had narrow size distribution and good wall cover.

Flower-like molybdenum disulfide (MoS) with rich edge sites has been prepared by the hydrothermal method. The edge sites possess polarity due to the noncentrosymmetric Mo-S on exposed (100) facets and thus show a strong electrostatic attraction toward polar species. The flower-like MoS can be used as small-molecule carriers for the model drug, Rhodamine B (RhB).

Article Synopsis
  • A new method has been developed to create patterns that are both superhydrophobic (water-repelling) and superhydrophilic (water-attracting) using UV or sunlight, and it doesn't require a photomask.
  • The resulting patterns have strong mechanical properties and can withstand outdoor conditions or environments with UV exposure for extended periods.
  • This technique also ensures a continuous supply of low surface tension material, enhancing the longevity of the patterns.
