Electronic-rich functional groups and flexible segments have long been perceived to be the decisive factors influencing lithium-ion transfer in polymer electrolytes, while crystallinity is regarded as the great scourge. Actually, the research on the influence of crystalline phase and crystalline plane is still in scarcity. Herein, taking poly(vinylidene fluoride)-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP) as an example, new (111/201) crystal planes (belonged to β-phase) are regulated by dissolving process and clarified by Synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction and X-ray diffraction.

For penetrating and deep non-compressible bleeding, hemostatic materials need to meet the demand of easy filling and rapid expansion to close the wound. However, developing an expandable material with sufficient mechanical strength remains a challenge. This study proposed an improved non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) method to prepare polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) cryogel with large pore structure (70-75 um) and enhanced mechanical properties.

AgBiS quantum dots (ABS QDs) have emerged as highly promising candidates for photovoltaic applications due to their strong sunlight absorption, nontoxicity, and elemental availability. Nevertheless, the efficiencies of ABS solar cells currently fall far short of their thermodynamic limits due in large part to sluggish charge transport characteristics in nanocrystal-derived films. In this study, we overcome this limitation by tuning the surfaces of ABS semiconductor QDs via a solvent-induced ligand exchange (SILE) strategy and provide key insights into the role of surface composition on both - and -type charge transfer doping, as well as long-range charge transport.

This study investigates the synthesis of flat sheet asymmetric Polysulfone (PSF) membranes using the Non-Solvent Induced Phase Separation (NIPS) method, enhanced by incorporating Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) composed of Choline Chloride (ChCl) and DL-Malic Acid (MA). The research explores the individual and combined effects of ChCl and MA on membrane morphology and performance. Comprehensive characterization techniques, including Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy-Universal Attenuated Total Reflectance (FTIR-UATR), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), were employed to analyze the structural and surface properties of the membranes.
