Abstract

In the quest for sustainable energy materials, wood is discovered to be a potential piezoelectric material. However, the rigidity, poor stability, and low piezoelectric properties of wood impede its development. Here, we obtained a superelastic roasted wood nanogenerator (RW-NG) by unraveling ray tissues through a sustainable roasting strategy. The increased compressibility of roasted wood intensifies the deformation of cellulose microfibrils, significantly enhancing the piezoelectric effect in wood. Roasted wood (15 × 15 × 15 mm3, longitudinal × radial × tangential) can generate a voltage and current outputs of 1.4 V and 14.5 nA, respectively, which are more than 70 times that of natural wood. The wood sample can recover 90% of its shape after 5000 compressions at 65% strain, exhibiting excellent elasticity and stability. Importantly, roasted wood does not add any toxic substances and can be safely applied on the human skin as a self-powered sensor for detecting body movements. Moreover, it can also be assembled into self-powered wooden floors for energy harvesting. These indicate that roasted wood has great potential for sustainable sensing and energy conversion.

超弹性木基纳米发电机放大压电效应,实现可持续能源转换
在寻求可持续能源材料的过程中,人们发现木材是一种潜在的压电材料。然而,木材的刚性、稳定性和低压电特性阻碍了它的发展。在这里,我们通过可持续的焙烧策略解开了射线组织,从而获得了超弹性焙烧木材纳米发电机(RW-NG)。焙烧木材的可压缩性增加,加剧了纤维素微纤维的变形,显著增强了木材的压电效应。焙烧木材(15 × 15 × 15 mm3,纵向 × 径向 × 切向)可产生的电压和电流输出分别为 1.4 V 和 14.5 nA,是天然木材的 70 多倍。木材样品在 65% 的应变下压缩 5000 次后,可恢复 90% 的形状,表现出极佳的弹性和稳定性。重要的是,焙烧木材不添加任何有毒物质,可安全地应用于人体皮肤,作为自供电传感器检测人体运动。此外,它还可以组装成自供电的木地板,用于能量采集。这些都表明,焙烧木材在可持续传感和能源转换方面具有巨大潜力。
