Excellent Humidity Sensor Based on LiCl Loaded Hierarchically Porous Polymeric Microspheres

A catalyst-free Friedel–Crafts alkylation reaction has been developed to synthesize hierarchically porous polymeric microspheres (HPPMs) with phloroglucin and dimethoxymethane. HPPMs with uniform size were obtained and the size can be tuned by the concentration of raw materials. The chemical structure and hierarchical porous characteristic of HPPMs were characterized in detail. HPPMs were then loaded with humidity sensitive material LiCl to construct composites for humidity sensor. The optimum sensor based on 3 wt % LiCl-loaded HPPMs shows high sensitivity at the relative humidity (RH) atmosphere of 11–95%, small hysteresis, enhanced durability and rapid response. The sensitive mechanism was discussed through the investigation of complex impedance plots

Backbone Isomerization to Enhance Thermal Stability and Decrease Mechanical Sensitivities of 10 Nitro-Substituted Bipyrazoles

The development of novel, environmentally friendly, and high-energy oxidizers remains interesting and challenging for replacing halogen-containing ammonium perchloride (AP). The trinitromethyl moiety is one of the most promising substituents for designing high-energy density oxidizers. In this study, a backbone isomerization strategy was utilized to manipulate the properties of 10 nitro group-substituted bipyrazoles containing the largest number of nitro groups among the bis-azole backbones so far. Another advanced high-energy density oxidizer, 3,3′,5,5′-tetranitro-1,1′-bis­(trinitromethyl)-1H,1′H-4,4′-bipyrazole (3), was designed and synthesized. Compared to the isomer 4,4′,5,5′-tetranitro-2,2′-bis­(trinitromethyl)-2H,2′H-3,3′-bipyrazole (4) (Td = 125 °C), 3 possesses better thermostability (Td = 156 °C), which is close to that of ammonium dinitramide (ADN) (Td = 159 °C), and it possesses better mechanical sensitivity (impact sensitivity (IS) = 13 J and friction sensitivity (FS) = 240 N) than that of 4 (IS = 9 J and FS = 215 N), thereby demonstrating a promising perspective for practical applications

Biobased Inks Based on Cuttlefish Ink and Cellulose Nanofibers for Biodegradable Patterned Soft Actuators

Soft actuators with stimuli-responsive and reversible deformations have shown great promise in soft robotics. However, some challenges remain in existing actuators, such as the materials involved derived from nonrenewable resources, complex and nonscalable preparation methods, and incapability of complex and programmable deformation. Here, a biobased ink based on cuttlefish ink nanoparticles (CINPs) and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) was developed, allowing for the preparation of biodegradable patterned actuators by direct ink writing technology. The hybrid CNF/CINP ink displays good rheological properties, allowing it to be accurately printed on a variety of flexible substrates. A bilayer actuator was developed by printing an ink layer on a biodegradable poly(lactic acid) film using extrusion-based 3D printing technology, which exhibits reversible and large bending behavior under the stimuli of humidity and light. Furthermore, programmable and reversible folding and coiling deformations in response to stimuli have been achieved by adjusting the ink patterns. This work offers a fast, scalable, and cost-effective strategy for the development of biodegradable patterned actuators with programmable shape-morphing
