The low intrinsic conductivity of carbon monofluoride (CFx) extremely limits the high-power application of lithium/carbon monofluoride (Li/CFx) primary batteries. Herein, silver nanowires were grown in situ on the surface of CFx material by an aldehyde reduction method in polyhydric alcohol. The interface interaction between silver nanowires (Ag NWs) and the surface of CFx material was studied. Ag NWs@CFx hybrids modulate the electronic structure of CFx and enhance the electrochemical activity of C–F bonds, thus increasing the availability of F atoms to participate in the discharge reaction....

In this study, new composite materials comprising zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) structures and microchannel glass (MCG) plates were fabricated using the hydrothermal method and their morphological and spectral properties were investigated using XRD, SEM, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopy. XRD studies of powder samples revealed the presence of an additional phase for a ZIF-8 sample, whereas ZIF-67 samples, which were prepared through two different chemical routes, showed no additional phases. A detailed analysis of the FTIR and micro-Raman spectra of the composite samples revealed the formati...

It is challenging to hydrothermally synthesize solution-processable MoS2, as the strong van der Waals force between MoS2 nanosheets induces self-assembly of agglomerates. Here, we introduce poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) into the precursor to impede aggregate formation in the hydrothermal process. A hybrid MoS2/PEDOT:PSS (MP) hydrogel is formed due to the electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged MoS2 and positively charged PEDOT chains. This hydrogel can be easily dispersed in water for subsequent solution processing such as vacuum filtrati...
