The superhydrophobic Zn-based coating with hierarchical structure has good prospects in metal anticorrosion. However, the practical application of superhydrophobic coating is still limited by the poor mechanical stability of micro/nano hierarchical structure. Herein, a robust superhydrophobic Zn/ZnO coating with pine needle-like structure and superior corrosion resistance was design and constructed. The micro-scale polyhedral Zn was fabricated on steel followed by the deposition of radially aligned ZnO nanorods, forming a novel pine needle-like hierarchical structure, which was finally modified by stearic acid. Notably, the pine needle-like structured Zn/ZnO (Zn/ZnO-3) coating exhibits excellent superhydrophobicity with contact angle of 166.8 ± 1.4° and sliding angle of 2.6 ± 0.5°. What's more, Zn/ZnO-3 coating maintains superhydrophobicity after suffering from strong acid/alkali, tape peeling, water drop impact and sandpaper abrasion tests. Compared with carbon steel and hydrophobic Zn coating, the corrosion current density of superhydrophobic Zn/ZnO-3 coating is decreased by approximately 4 and 3 orders of magnitude, respectively. The superior mechanochemical stability and anti-corrosion performance of superhydrophobic Zn/ZnO-3 coating is ascribed to its pine needle-like structure. Overall, this work provides a novel strategy to design hierarchical structured superhydrophobic surfaces with excellent mechanochemical stability and corrosion resistance, holding great prospects in metallic corrosion protection.

Developing highly efficient flexible microwave absorber is of great significance for wearable electronics and aerospace applications. In this work, the fusiform SnO2 nanocrystals film in situ grown on flexible carbon fiber cloth is rationally designed and fabricated through combining air calcination and hydrothermal synthesis. X-ray photoelectron spectrum confirms fusiform SnO2 nanocrystals film and carbon fiber cloth are effectively integrated with strong chemical bonds of COSn. The as-prepared composite exhibits strong reflection loss of −49.1 dB (2.6 GHz) and wide effective absorption bandwidth of 5.8 GHz (11.6–17.4 GHz) with a thin matched thickness of 1.6 mm, surpassing to pure carbon fiber cloth and many SnO2/carbon-based microwave absorbers. The efficient performance originates from well-matched characteristic impedance and multifarious electromagnetic attenuation mechanisms, i.g., dipole orientation polarization, interfacial polarization relaxation, conductive loss, and multiple reflections/scatterings. Especially, differential charge density calculation reveals the uneven charge distribution at SnO2/C interface, which is believed to remarkably enhance interfacial polarization relaxation and contribute to microwave absorption. Our results illustrate that the ingenious integration of nanomaterials on carbon fiber cloth promises a way to achieve efficient and flexible microwave absorbers.
开发高效柔性微波吸收体对于可穿戴电子和航空航天应用具有重要意义。本文采用空气煅烧和水热合成相结合的方法,合理设计并制备了在柔性碳纤维布上原位生长的梭形SnO2纳米晶体薄膜。x射线光电子能谱证实纺锤状SnO2纳米晶薄膜与碳纤维布有效结合,形成了COSn的强化学键。该复合材料的反射损耗为- 49.1 dB (2.6 GHz),有效吸收带宽为5.8 GHz (11.6-17.4 GHz),匹配厚度为1.6 mm,优于纯碳纤维布和许多SnO2/碳基微波吸收材料。高效的性能源于良好匹配的特性阻抗和多种电磁衰减机制,如偶极取向极化、界面极化弛豫、导电损耗和多次反射/散射。差分电荷密度计算揭示了SnO2/C界面处电荷分布的不均匀性,从而显著增强了界面极化弛豫,有利于微波吸收。我们的研究结果表明,将纳米材料巧妙地集成在碳纤维布上,有望实现高效灵活的微波吸收器。

Lattice structures are increasingly used in biomedical implants, notably intervertebral cages, requiring a better understanding of their behavior for the different types of loading they undergo during application. Strut-based diamond and sheet-based gyroid structures with porosity levels ranging from 50 to 80 % and an identical pore size of 750 μm were manufactured from Ti6Al4V alloy, tested experimentally and simulated numerically in axial tension/compression and in torsion to simulate flexion/extension, compression and rotation of the human spine. The manufactured structures were within 5 % of the targeted porosity. However, numerical simulations overestimated the experimental apparent (effective) stiffness and strength of the structures by an average of 25 %, likely due to the presence in them of manufacturing defects, especially in the higher porosity lattices. Experimental and numerical results showed that the structures have quasi-identical mechanical properties in compression and in tension. However, a comparison of the torsion and axial results indicated that conventional bulk material failure theories such as the von Mises limitation criterion do not apply to the apparent properties of lattice structures. Studied lattices exhibited adequate resistance for use in intervertebral cages, however their stiffness was greater than those of the vertebrae, while situated in the stiffness range of cortical bone.
