Abstract
Efficient removal of oils has attracted wide attention and researchers have tried to develop effective oil absorbents with increasingly serious oily pollution. Collagen (COL)/V2C Aluminium Carbide (V2CTx) composite aerogels were synthesized using a simple method of blending and directional freezing-drying with original materials of COL and V2CTx, in which V2CTx MXene was prepared by etching V2AlC with hydrofluoric acid under stirring at room temperature. Modern testing and analysis techniques were used to characterize the structural properties and surface morphology of the hybrid aerogel. The COL/V2CTx composite aerogel shows excellent mechanical properties with 83 kPa compressive stress at 70% strain, low density (about 25 mg/cm3), outstanding thermal stability with 58.67% weight loss from 240℃ to 600℃ and thermal insulation with heat conductivity coefficient 0.05304 W/mK. Importantly, COL/V2CTx aerogel exhibits higher oil absorption capacity and stability than that of COL aerogel for various oils. The absorbency of COL/V2CTx aerogel for methylene chloride is up to 54 times its weight under Vander Waals forces, intermolecular interaction, and capillary interaction between the aerogel and oily liquids. Therefore, COL/V2CTx aerogel possesses a promising application in the field of oil absorption and wastewater treatment.HIGHLIGHTSA novel COL/V2CTx aerogel was prepared by a simple method of blending and directional freezing-drying.The absorption capacity of COL/V2CTx aerogel for methylene chloride achieves up to 54 times its weight.The COL/V2CTx composite aerogel exhibits excellent mechanical properties with 83 kPa compressive stress at 70% strain, low density (about 25 mg/cm3), and good thermal stability with 58.67% weight loss from 240℃ to 600℃.

Abstract
High-performance green functional materials have garnered significant interest for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding applications, but creating customized, low-density, high-strength and high-efficiency biomass-based shielding materials remains challenging. In this study, lightweight Ca2+ doped sodium alginate (SA) porous scaffolds with a carbon nanotube (CNT)/graphene (Gr) hybrid conductive network were fabricated via direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printing. The SA/CNT/Gr inks with unique rheological properties were formulated and architectures with arbitrarily customized structures could be freely constructed based on the printable inks. The incorporation of Ca2+ facilitated the construction of hierarchical crosslinking networks, which imparted the SA/CNT/Gr/Ca2+ porous scaffolds with improved compressive strength (a 136 % increase), excellent chemical stability (maintaining integrity in both acidic and alkaline environments for up to 30 days) and enhanced electrical conductivity (131.3 S/m). Benefiting from their porous structure and robust conductive network, the porous scaffolds achieved an admirable EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of 54.8 dB and a high specific shielding effectiveness (SSE) of 322.35 dB·cm3·g-1 in the X-band. Furthermore, the porous scaffolds also exhibited distinctive Joule heating performance, and their surface steady-state temperature reached 124.6 °C under a low applied voltage (≤ 3 V), indicating great potential for thermal management in integrated systems.

Abstract
Due to the increasing pollution of electromagnetic waves and the vigorous development of intelligent electronic devices, there is great interest in finding high-quality electromagnetic wave absorbing materials for integrated control boxes (ICBs) that integrate various electronic components. Polyaniline (PANI) is a new type of absorbing material with great potential due to its designable structure, simple preparation process, low density and adjustable conductivity. Herein, we prepared BCNF/PANI nanoscale conductive fibers with core-shell structure by in-situ growth of PANI on the surface of bacterial cellulose nanofibers (BCNF) by oxidative polymerization and further prepared cellulose/polyaniline/polyvinyl alcohol (BCNF/PANI/PVA) composite aerogel absorbing material by a freeze-drying process. The results show that the prepared BCNF/PANI/PVA aerogel has excellent absorption performance: the minimum reflection loss is -53.19 dB at 4.16 GHz with 6.11 mm thickness, and the effective absorption bandwidth is 2.20 GHz. The influence of the macrostructure of the BCNF/PANI/PVA absorbing unit on the absorption performance was further explored through numerical simulation, and the efficient electromagnetic protection of the small ICB was finally realized with the help of the macro-optimization strategy. This achievement provides an important reference and guidance for further developing and applying high-performance electromagnetic wave absorbing materials.

Abstract
In recent decades, aerogels have attracted tremendous attention in academia and industry as a class of lightweight and porous multifunctional nanomaterial. Despite their wide application range, the low mechanical durability hinders their processing and handling, particularly in applications requiring complex physical structures. "Mechanically strengthened aerogels" have emerged as a potential solution to address this drawback. Since the first report on aerogels in 1931, various modified synthesis processes have been introduced in the last few decades to enhance the aerogel mechanical strength, further advancing their multifunctional scope. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art developments of mechanically strengthened aerogels through multicompositional and multidimensional approaches. Furthermore, new trends and future directions for as prevailed commercialization of aerogels as plastic materials are discussed.

Abstract
Designing and developing high-performance shielding materials against electromagnetic interference is of utmost importance due to the rapid advancement of wireless telecommunication technologies. Such materials hold both fundamental and technological significance. A three-stage process is presented for creating ultralight, flexible aerogels from biomass to shield against electromagnetic interference. Collagen fibers sourced from leather solid waste are used for: (i) freeze-drying preparation of collagen fibers/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) aerogels, (ii) adsorption of silver nanowires (AgNWs) onto collagen fiber/PVA aerogels, and (iii) Hydrophobic modification of collagen fiber/PVA/AgNWs aerogels with 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane (POTS). Scanning electron microscopy studies reveal that an interweaving of AgNWs and collagen fiber/PVA porous network has formed a conductive network, exhibiting an electrical conductivity of 103 S·m-1. The electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness reached more than 62 dB, while the density was merely 5.8 mg/cm3. The collagen fiber/PVA/AgNWs/POTS aerogel displayed an even better electromagnetic shielding efficiency of 73 dB and water contact angle of 147°. The study results emphasize the distinctive capacity of leather solid waste to generate cost-effective, ecofriendly, and highly efficient electromagnetic interference shielding materials.

Abstract
Discovering new applications for discarded materials, such as leather waste (LW), has proven to be an effective approach to an ecofriendly and sustainable production. The manufacture of halogen-free flame retardant LW containing thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-based samples containing an organic phosphinate (OP)-based flame retardant additive would represent an advance in this area. The effects of LW and OP levels on the thermal, flame retardant, and tensile properties of the samples using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), limiting oxygen index (LOI), vertical UL-94 (UL-94 V), mass loss calorimetry, and tensile tests have been assessed. OP is highly effective in LW-filled TPU. The highest UL-94 V rating of V0, LOI value of 31.4%, the lowest peak heat release rate (93 ± 3 kW/m2), and total heat evolved (49 ± 2 MJ/m2) values are obtained with the use of 20 wt % OP. OP is primarily promoted through the creation of a compact intumescent residue structure in the condensed phase. LW exhibits an adjuvant effect by producing nonflammable gases in the gas phase and raising the residual yield in the condensed phase. The most remarkable effect of the LW presence is observed in fire performance index (FPI) and fire growth rate (FIGRA) values. The highest FPI value of 0.49 sm2/kW and the lowest FIGRA value of 0.91 kW/m2s are observed with the use of 20 wt % LW.

Abstract
Wearable devices with efficient thermal management and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding are highly desirable for improving human comfort and safety. Herein, a multifunctional wearable carbon fibers (CF) @ polyaniline (PANI) / silver nanowires (Ag NWs) composites with a "branch-trunk" interlocked micro/nanostructure were achieved through "three-in-one" multi-scale design. The reasonable assembly of the three kinds of one-dimensional (1D) materials can fully exert their excellent properties i.e., the superior flexibility of CF, the robustness of PANI, and the splendid conductivity of AgNWs. Consequently, the constructed flexible composite demonstrates enhanced mechanical properties with a tensile stress of 1.2 MPa, which was almost 6 times that of the original material. This is mainly attributed to the fact that the PNAI (branch) was firmly attached to the CF (trunk) through polydopamine (PDA), forming a robust interlocked structure. Meanwhile, the composite possesses excellent thermal insulation and heat preservation capacity owing to the synergistically low thermal conductivity and emissivity. More importantly, the conductive path of the composite established by the three 1D materials greatly improved its EMI shielding property and Joule heating performance at low applied voltage. This work paves the way for rational utilization of the intrinsic properties of 1D materials, as well as provides a promising strategy for designing wearable electromagnetic protection and thermal energy management devices.

Abstract
Collagen presents a well-organized hierarchical multilevel structure. Microfibers, fibers, and fiber bundles are the aggregates of natural collagen; which achieve an ideal balance of mechanical strength and toughness at the mesoscopic scale for biological tissue. These mesostructured aggregates of collagen isolated from biological tissues retain these inherent organizational features to enable their use as building blocks for constructing new collagen materials with ideal mechanical performance, thermal and dimensional stability. This strategy is distinct from the more common bottom-up or molecular-level design and assembly approach to generating collagen materials. The present review introduces the hierarchical structure of biological collagen with a focus on mesostructural features. Isolation strategies for these collagen aggregates (CAs) are summarized. Recent progress in the use of these mesostructural components for the construction of new collagen materials with emerging applications is reviewed, including in catalysis, environmental applications, biomedicine, food packaging, electrical energy storage, and flexible sensors. Finally, challenges and prospects are assessed for controllable production of CAs as well as material designs.

Abstract
Exploring electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials with ultra-efficient EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) and an absorption-dominated mechanism is urgently required for fundamentally tackling EMI radiation pollution. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67)/MXene/cellulose aerogels were first prepared via a simple solution mixing-regeneration and freeze-drying process. Subsequently, they are converted into electric/magnetic hybrid carbon aerogels (Co/C/MXene/cellulose-derived carbon aerogels) through a facile pyrolysis strategy. ZIF-67-derived porous Co/C could provide the additional magnetic loss capacity. The resultant electric/magnetic hybrid carbon aerogels exhibit a hierarchically porous structure, complementary electromagnetic waves (EMWs) loss mechanisms, and abundant heterointerfaces. The construction of a porous architecture and the synergy of electric/magnetic loss could greatly alleviate the impedance mismatching at the air-specimen interface, which enables more EMWs to enter into the materials for consumption. Moreover, numerous heterointerfaces among Co/C, Ti3C2Tx MXene, and cellulose-derived carbon skeleton induce the generation of multiple polarization losses containing interfacial and dipole polarization, which further dissipate the EMWs. The resultant electric/magnetic hybrid carbon aerogel with a low density (85.6 mg/cm3) achieves an ultrahigh EMI SE of 86.7 dB and a superior absorption coefficient of 0.72 simultaneously. This work not only offers a novel approach to design high-performance EMI shielding materials entailing low reflection characteristic but also broadens the applicability of electric/magnetic hybrid carbon aerogels in aerospace, precision electronic devices, and military stealth instruments.

[PMID: 35015320 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202108327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Mechanochemistry with solvent-free and environmentally friendly characteristics is one of the most promising alternatives to traditional liquid-phase-based reactions, demonstrating epoch-making significance in the realization of different types of chemistry. Mechanochemistry utilizes mechanical energy to promote physical and chemical transformations to design complex molecules and nanostructured materials, encourage dispersion and recombination of multiphase components, and accelerate reaction rates and efficiencies via highly reactive surfaces. In particular, mechanochemistry deserves special attention because it is capable of endowing energy materials with unique characteristics and properties. Herein, the latest advances and progress in mechanochemistry for the preparation and modification of energy materials are reviewed. An outline of the basic knowledge, methods, and characteristics of different mechanochemical strategies is presented, distinguishing this review from most mechanochemistry reviews that only focus on ball-milling. Next, this outline is followed by a detailed and insightful discussion of mechanochemistry-involved energy conversion and storage applications. The discussion comprehensively covers aspects of energy transformations from mechanical/optical/chemical energy to electrical energy. Finally, next-generation advanced energy materials are proposed. This review is intended to bring mechanochemistry to the frontline and guide this burgeoning field of interdisciplinary research for developing advanced energy materials with greener mechanical force.

Abstract
High-performance flexible conductive films are highly promising for the development of wearable devices, artificial intelligence, medical care, etc. Herein, a three-step procedure was developed to produce electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, Joule heating, and a hydrophobic nanofiber film based on hydrolysate of waste leather scraps (HWLS): (i) electrospinning preparation of the HWLS/polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) nanofiber film, (ii) carbonization of the HWLS/PAN/ZIF-67 nanofiber film, and (iii) coating of the carbon nanofiber@cobalt (Co@CNF) nanofiber film with perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (POTS). The X-ray diffraction results showed that metal nanoparticles and amorphous carbon had obvious peaks. The micromorphology results showed that metal nanoparticles were coated with carbon nanofibers. The conductivity and shielding efficiency of the carbon nanofiber film with 250 μm thickness could reach 45 S/m and 49 dB, respectively, and absorption values (A > 0.5) were higher than reflection (R) values for the Co@CNF nanofiber film, which indicated that the contribution of absorption loss was more significant than that of reflection loss. Ultrafast electrothermal response performances were also achieved, which could guarantee the normal functioning of films in cold conditions. The water contact angle of the Co@CNF@POTS nanofiber film was ∼151.3°, which displayed a self-cleaning property with water-proofing and antifouling. Absorption-dominant and low-reflection EMI shielding and electrothermal films not only showed broad application potential in flexible wearable electronic devices but also provided new avenues for the utilization of leather solid waste.
