A high-molecular-weight aromatic polyamide resin incorporating furan-rings (f-resin) was prepared by low-temperature solution polycondensation of bio-based 2,5-furandiformyl chloride and 3,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether, in N,N-dimethylacetamide. Further, an aromatic polyamide fibre containing furan-rings (f-fibre) was obtained from the fresin by dry-jet wet spinning, and its structure and properties were investigated. The prepared f-resin showed good solubility and possessed good spinnability in solution. The mechanical, heat-resistance, and flame-retardant properties of the f-fibre were found to be excellent – comparable to or exceeding those of meta-aramid fibre (m-fibre). In addition, the furan acid chloride monomer is bio-based and is derived from abundant resources, unlike petroleum-based monomers. Therefore, f-fibre has good potential and broad application prospects as an environment-friendly and sustainable high-performance material.

The molecular and supramolecular structures of an aromatic polyamide fibre (Kevlar 49) have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. As a result, the main features of the fibre have now been defined. An attempt has been made to relate these findings to the exceptional mechanical properties.

Materials and processing of transparent electrodes (TEs) are key factors to creating high-performance translucent perovskite solar cells. To date, sputtered indium tin oxide (ITO) has been a general option for a rear TE of translucent solar cells. However, it requires a rather high cost due to vacuum process and also typically causes plasma damage to the underlying layer. Therefore, we introduced TE based on ITO nanoparticles (ITO-NPs) by solution processing in ambient air without any heat treatment. As it reveals insufficient conductivity, Ag nanowires (Ag-NWs) are additionally coated. The ITO-NPs/Ag-NW (0D/1D) bilayer TE exhibits a better figure of merit than sputtered ITO. After constructing CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells, the device with 0D/1D TE offers similar average visible transmission with the cells with sputtered ITO. More interestingly, the power conversion efficiency of 0D/1D TE device was 5.64%, which outperforms the cell (4.14%) made with sputtered-ITO. These impressive findings could open up a new pathway for the development of low-cost, translucent solar cells with quick processing under ambient air at room temperature.

Abstract Acetone commonly exists in daily life and is harmful to human health, therefore the convenient and sensitive monitoring of acetone is highly desired. In addition, flexible sensors have the advantages of light-weight, conformal attachable to irregular shapes, etc. In this study, we fabricated high performance flexible silicon nanowires (SiNWs) sensor for acetone detection by transferring the monocrystalline Si film and metal-assisted chemical etching method on polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The SiNWs sensor enabled detection of gaseous acetone with a concentration as low as 0.1 parts per million (ppm) at flat and bending states. The flexible SiNWs sensor was compatible with the CMOS process and exhibited good sensitivity, selectivity and repeatability for acetone detection at room temperature. The flexible sensor showed performance improvement under mechanical bending condition and the underlying mechanism was discussed. The results demonstrated the good potential of the flexible SiNWs sensor for the applications of wearable devices in environmental safety, food quality, and healthcare.
