Abstract
Assembling pristine graphene into freestanding films featuring high electrical conductivity, superior flexibility, and robust mechanical strength aims at meeting the all-around high criteria of new-generation electronics. However, voids and defects produced in the macroscopic assembly process of graphene nanosheets severely degrade the performance of graphene films, and mechanical brittleness often limits their applications in wide scenarios. To address such challenges, an electrostatic-repulsion aligning strategy is demonstrated to produce highly conductive, ultraflexible, and multifunctional graphene films. Typically, the high electronegativity of titania nanosheets (TiNS) induces the aligning of negatively charged graphene nanosheets via electrostatic repulsion in the film assembly. The resultant graphene films show fine microstructure, enhanced mechanical properties, and improved electrical conductivity up to 1.285 × 105 S m-1 . Moreover, the graphene films can withstand 5000 repeated folding without structural damage and electrical resistance fluctuation. These comprehensive improved properties, combined with the facile synthesis method and scalable production, make these graphene films a promising platform for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and thermal-management applications in smart and wearable electronics.

Enhanced Energy Storage Performance of PVDF-Based Composites Using BN@PDA Sheets and Titania Nanosheets. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15134370. [PMID: 35806495 PMCID: PMC9267653 DOI: 10.3390/ma15134370] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Revised: 05/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
With the rapid development of modern electrical and electronic applications, the demand for high-performance film capacitors is becoming increasingly urgent. The energy density of a capacitor is dependent on permittivity and breakdown strength. However, the development of polymer-based composites with both high permittivity (εr) and breakdown strength (Eb) remains a huge challenge. In this work, a strategy of doping synergistic dual-fillers with complementary functionalities into polymer is demonstrated, by which high εr and Eb are obtained simultaneously. Small-sized titania nanosheets (STNSs) with high εr and high-insulating boron nitride sheets coated with polydopamine on the surface (BN@PDA) were introduced into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) to prepare a ternary composite. Remarkably, a PVDF-based composite with 1 wt% BN@PDA and 0.5 wt% STNSs (1 wt% PVDF/BN@PDA−STNSs) shows an excellent energy storage performance, including a high εr of ~13.9 at 1 Hz, a superior Eb of ~440 kV/mm, and a high discharged energy density Ue of ~12.1 J/cm3. Moreover, the simulation results confirm that BN@PDA sheets improve breakdown strength and STNSs boost polarization, which is consistent with the experimental results. This contribution provides a new design paradigm for energy storage dielectrics.

Abstract
Flexible and wearable electronics have recently sparked intense interest in both academia and industry because they can greatly revolutionize human lives by impacting every aspect of our daily routine. Therefore, developing compatible energy storage devices has become one of the most important research frontiers in this field. Particularly, the development of flexible electrodes is of great significance when considering their essential role in the performance of these devices. Although there is no doubt that transition metal oxide nanomaterials are suitable for providing electrochemical energy storage, individual oxides generally cannot be developed into freestanding electrodes because of their intrinsically low mechanical strength.Two-dimensional sheets with genuine unilamellar thickness are perfect units for the assembly of freestanding and mechanically flexible devices, as they have the advantages of low thickness and good flexibility. Therefore, the development of metal oxide materials into a two-dimensional sheet morphology analogous to graphene is expected to solve the above-mentioned problems. In this Account, we summarize the recent progress on two-dimensional molecular sheets of transition metal oxides for wearable energy storage applications. We start with our understanding of the principle of producing two-dimensional metal oxides from their bulk-layered counterparts. The unique layered structure of the precursors inspired the exploration of their interlayer chemistry, which helps us to understand the processes of swelling and delamination. Rational methods for tuning the chemical composition, size/thickness, and surface chemistry of the obtained nanosheets and how physicochemical properties of the nanosheets can be modulated are then briefly introduced. Subsequently, the orientational alignment of the anisotropic sheets and the origins of their liquid-crystalline characteristics are discussed, which are of vital importance for their subsequent macroscopic assembly. Finally, macroscopic electrodes with geometric diversity ranging from one-dimensional macroscopic fibers to two-dimensional films/papers and three-dimensional monolithic foams are summarized. The intrinsically low mechanical stiffness of metal oxide sheets can be effectively overcome by wisely designing the assembly mode and sheet interfaces to obtain decent mechanical properties integrated with superior electrochemical performance, thereby providing critical advantages for the fabrication of wearable energy storage devices.We expect that this Account will stimulate further efforts toward fundamental research on interface engineering in metal oxide sheet assembly and facilitate wide applications of their designed assemblies in future new-concept energy conversion devices and beyond. In the foreseeable future, we believe that there will be a big explosion in the application of transition metal oxide sheets in flexible electronics.

Abstract
Macroscopic assembly of 2D nanomaterials, especially for the one-dimensional macroscopic ordered fiber assembly from 2D liquid crystals (LCs), is rising to an unprecedented height and will continue to be an important topic in materials. However, this case of 2D functional metal oxide nanosheets is quite challenging. For the first time, the high-performance tungstate macroscopic fiber has been realized through an LC wet-spinning process involving the formation of LC colloid with spinnability and performance improvement by interlayer bridging in macroscopic assembly. The resultant macroscopic fiber yields record high tensile strength (198.5 MPa) and fracture toughness (3.0 MJ m-3) owing to their highly ordered structure and strong ionic interlayer bridging. Despite the intrinsically weak mechanical strength of the nanosheets, with only a few percent of graphene, the fibers manifest mechanical properties comparable to that of graphene fibers. Inspired by this concept, the possible macroscopic fibers assembled from other 2D functional metal oxide nanosheets will become a reality in the near future, holding great promise in aerospace and wearable applications.

Abstract
Titanium-based oxides including TiO2 and M-Ti-O compounds (M = Li, Nb, Na, etc.) family, exhibit advantageous structural dynamics (2D ion diffusion path, open and stable structure for ion accommodations) for practical applications in energy storage systems, such as lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and hybrid pseudocapacitors. Further, Ti-based oxides show high operating voltage relative to the deposition of alkali metal, ensuring full safety by avoiding the formation of lithium and sodium dendrites. On the other hand, high working potential prevents the decomposition of electrolyte, delivering excellent rate capability through the unique pseudocapacitive kinetics. Nevertheless, the intrinsic poor electrical conductivity and reaction dynamics limit further applications in energy storage devices. Recently, various work and in-depth understanding on the morphologies control, surface engineering, bulk-phase doping of Ti-based oxides, have been promoted to overcome these issues. Inspired by that, in this review, the authors summarize the fundamental issues, challenges and advances of Ti-based oxides in the applications of advanced electrochemical energy storage. Particularly, the authors focus on the progresses on the working mechanism and device applications from lithium-ion batteries to sodium-ion batteries, and then the hybrid pseudocapacitors. In addition, future perspectives for fundamental research and practical applications are discussed.

Abstract
2D crystals are emerging new materials in multidisciplinary fields including condensed state physics, electronics, energy, environmental engineering, and biomedicine. To employ 2D crystals for practical applications, these nanoscale crystals need to be processed into macroscale materials, such as suspensions, fibers, films, and 3D macrostructures. Among these macromaterials, fibers are flexible, knittable, and easy to use, which can fully reflect the advantages of the structure and properties of 2D crystals. Therefore, the fabrication and application of 2D crystal-based fibers is of great importance for expanding the impact of 2D crystals. In this Review, 2D crystals that are successfully prepared are overviewed based on their composition of elements. Subsequently, methods for preparing 2D crystals, 2D crystals dispersions, and 2D crystal-based fibers are systematically introduced. Then, the applications of 2D crystal-based fibers, such as flexible electronic devices, high-efficiency catalysis, and adsorption, are also discussed. Finally, the status-of-quo, perspectives, and future challenges of 2D crystal-based fibers are summarized. This Review provides directions and guidelines for developing new 2D crystal-based fibers and exploring their potentials in the fields of smart wearable devices.

Abstract
Compared to lithium ions, the fast redox intercalation of large-radius sodium or potassium ions into a solid lattice in non-aqueous electrolytes is an elusive goal. Herein, by regulating the interlayer structure of stacked titania sheets through weakened layer-to-layer interactions and a robustly pillared gallery space, the two-dimensional channel between neighboring sheets was completely open to guest intercalation, allowing fast intercalation that was practically irrespective of the carrier-ion sizes. Regardless of employing regular Li or large-radius Na and K ions, the material manifested zero strain-like behavior with no significant change in both host structure and interlayer space, enabling comparable capacities for all tested ions along with excellent rate behaviors and extraordinarily long lifetimes, even with 80-μm-thick electrodes. The result highlights the importance of interlayer structural features for unlocking the electrochemical activity of a layered material.

Abstract
A variety of biological materials in natural organisms supply a rich source of structural design guidelines and inspirations for the construction of advanced structural materials with excellent mechanical properties. In this work, inspired by the natural nacre and human bone, a kind of flexible macroscopic ribbon fiber made from highly ordered alignment of ultralong hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanowires and sodium polyacrylate (PAAS) with a "brick-and-mortar" layered structure has been developed by a scalable and convenient wet-spinning method. The quasi-long-range orderly liquid crystal of one-dimensional ultralong hydroxyapatite nanowires is employed and spun into the continuous flexible macroscopic ribbon fiber. In this work, highly ordered ultralong HAP nanowires act as the hard "brick" and PAAS acts as the soft "mortar", and the nacre-mimetic layered architecture is obtained. The as-prepared flexible macroscopic HAP/PAAS ribbon fiber exhibits superior mechanical properties, and the maximum tensile strength and Young's modulus are as high as 203.58 ± 45.38 MPa and 24.56 ± 5.35 GPa, respectively. In addition, benefiting from the excellent flexibility and good knittability, the as-prepared macroscopic HAP/PAAS ribbon fiber can be woven into various flexible macroscopic architectures. Additionally, the as-prepared flexible macroscopic HAP/PAAS ribbon fiber can be further functionalized by incorporation of various functional components, such as magnetic and photoluminescent constituents. The as-prepared flexible macroscopic HAP/PAAS ribbon fiber has potential applications in various fields such as smart wearable devices, optical devices, magnetic devices, and biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Graphene composite fibers are of great importance in constructing electrode materials with high flexibility and conductivity for energy storage and electronic devices. Integration of multifunctional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into graphene fiber scaffolds enables novel functions and enhanced physical/chemical properties. The close-packed and aligned graphene sheets along with the porous MOF-derived structures can achieve excellent lithium storage performance through synergetic effects. In this work, a facile and general strategy is demonstrated for the preparation of MOF/graphene oxide (GO) fibers, which serve as precursors for the subsequent preparation of porous metal oxide/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite fibers. The obtained composites, for example, porous Fe2 O3 /rGO and Co3 O4 /rGO fibers, possess unique features of MOF-derived porous structures and excellent electrical conductivity. When tested as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries in coin cells, the MOF/GO fiber-derived porous metal oxide/rGO composite fibers exhibited high specific capacity, excellent rate capability and cycling performance. Moreover, a flexible fiber battery was fabricated based on the Fe2 O3 /rGO composite fiber, which demonstrates its potential application for flexible electronic devices.

Abstract
Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been widely investigated for the last few years, introducing nanosheets and ultrathin films. The often superior electrical, optical and mechanical properties in contrast to their three-dimensional (3D) bulk counterparts offer a promising field of opportunities. Especially new research fields for already existing and novel applications are opened by downsizing and improving the materials at the same time. Some of the most promising application fields are namely supercapacitors, electrochromic devices, (bio-) chemical sensors, photovoltaic devices, thermoelectrics, (photo-) catalysts and membranes. The role of oxides in this field of materials deserves a closer look due to their availability, durability and further advantages. Here, recent progress in oxidic nanosheets is highlighted and the benefit of 2D oxides for applications discussed in-depth. Therefore, different synthesis techniques and microstructures are compared more closely.

Abstract
Increasing interest has recently been devoted to developing small, rapid, and portable electronic devices; thus, it is becoming critically important to provide matching light and flexible energy-storage systems to power them. To this end, compared with the inevitable drawbacks of being bulky, heavy, and rigid for traditional planar sandwiched structures, linear fiber-shaped lithium-ion batteries (LIB) have become increasingly important owing to their combined superiorities of miniaturization, adaptability, and weavability, the progress of which being heavily dependent on the development of new fiber-shaped electrodes. Here, we report a novel fiber battery electrode based on the most widely used LIB material, titanium oxide, which is processed into two-dimensional nanosheets and assembled into a macroscopic fiber by a scalable wet-spinning process. The titania sheets are regularly stacked and conformally hybridized in situ with reduced graphene oxide (rGO), thereby serving as efficient current collectors, which endows the novel fiber electrode with excellent integrated mechanical properties combined with superior battery performances in terms of linear densities, rate capabilities, and cyclic behaviors. The present study clearly demonstrates a new material-design paradigm toward novel fiber electrodes by assembling metal oxide nanosheets into an ordered macroscopic structure, which would represent the most-promising solution to advanced flexible energy-storage systems.

Abstract
Two-dimensional colloidal nanomaterials are running into renaissance after the enlightening researches of graphene. Macroscopic one-dimensional fiber is an optimal ordered structural form to express the in-plane merits of 2D nanomaterials, and the formation of liquid crystals (LCs) allows the creation of continuous fibers. In the correlated system from LCs to fibers, understanding their macroscopic organizing behavior and transforming them into new solid fibers is greatly significant for applications. Herein, we retrospect the history of 2D colloids and discuss about the concept of 2D nanomaterial fibers in the context of LCs, elaborating the motivation, principle and possible strategies of fabrication. Then we highlight the creation, development and typical applications of graphene fibers. Additionally, the latest advances of other 2D nanomaterial fibers are also summarized. Finally, conclusions, challenges and perspectives are provided to show great expectations of better and more fibrous materials of 2D nanomaterials. This review gives a comprehensive retrospect of the past century-long effort about the whole development of 2D colloids, and plots a clear roadmap - "lamellar solid - LCs - macroscopic fibers - flexible devices", which will certainly open a new era of structural-multifunctional application for the conventional 2D colloids.

Abstract
The galvanic exchange reaction of an exfoliated 2D layered metal oxide nanosheet (NS) with excess substituent metal cations enables the synthesis of a mixed metal oxide 2D NS with controllable cation compositions and physicochemical properties. The reaction of the exfoliated MnO2 NS with Fe2+ or Sn2+ ions at 90 °C induces the uniform galvanic replacement of Mn ions with these substituent ions, whereas the same reaction at 25 °C results in the intercalative restacking of the negatively-charged MnO2 NS with Fe2+ or Sn2+ cations. Upon the galvanic exchange reaction, the highly anisotropic MnO2 2D NS retains its original 2D morphology and layered structure, which is in stark contrast to 0D nanoparticles yielding hollow nanospheres via the galvanic exchange reaction. This observation is attributable to the thin thickness of the 2D NS allowing the simultaneous replacement of all the component surface-exposed metal ions. The resulting substitution of the MnO2 NS with Fe and Sn ions remarkably improves the electrode performance of the carbon-coated derivatives of the MnO2 NS for lithium ion batteries. The present study clearly demonstrates that the galvanic exchange reaction can provide an efficient method not only to tailor cation compositions but also to improve the functionalities of 2D metal oxide NSs and their carbon-coated derivatives.
