The controlled chemical functionalization of graphene oxide (GO) represents a powerful strategy to finely tune its physical and properties toward applications in energy storage. Herein, an unprecedented approach for the GO modification with thioamide-based polymers featuring numerous heteroatoms (S,N,O) is reported, which instrumental achieving superior electrochemical performance symmetric sup...

Porous films offer a general and simple strategy for balancing the electron/hole transport, ion doping/dedoping process in organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) channel. Here universal 3D integrated approach that simultaneously achieves both enhanced transconductance (gm) mechanical stretchability via constructing multilayer breath-figured porous polymer channel by poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P...

Blend reverse osmosis membranes were fabricated using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with cellulose acetate (CA) as polymer blends. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) and N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) were used as solvents. The membrane polymer solution was cast on a coated woven fabric support material. The prepared membranes have been characterized by SEM and mechanical properties. SEM r...

   Zinc oxide has been considered as a promising semiconductor material for fabrication of transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), electronic devices, optoelectronics, and solar cells. Among the various morphologies of zinc oxide, nanorods are more widely used because of the ease of synthesis and providing a direct path for the transport of charge carriers. The electrochemical deposi...

It is urgent to seek high performance solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) via a facile chemistry and simple process. The lithium salts are composed of complex anions that are stabilized by a Lewis acid agent. This Lewis acid can initiate the ring opening polymerization. Herein, a self-catalyzed strategy toward facile synthesis of crosslinked poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether-based solid poly...

Excessive water production through fractures become an important problem in oil exploration of fractured reservoirs. For this purpose, polymer gels were prepared by crosslinking of aqueous solutions of polymer and crosslinker for the purpose of water management in high water cut fractured reservoirs. A copolymer of sulfonated polyacrylamide was used as polymer and chromium triacetate (Cr(OA...
