Laser-Induced Graphene Formation on Chitosan Derivatives toward Ecofriendly Electronics

Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has aroused a wide range of research interests ranging from micro-nano energy devices to the Internet of Things (IoT). Nevertheless, the non-degradability of most-used synthetic polymer carbon sources poses a serious threat to the environment. In this work, ecofriendly chitosan-based derivatives, including...

Towards weathering and corrosion resistant, self-warning and self-healing epoxy coatings with tannic acid loaded nanocontainers

In this work, an active protective epoxy coating with weathering resistant, corrosion-warning, and self-healing properties was developed by incorporating tannic acid (TA) loaded mesoporous silica (MSN-TA) nanocontainers. The introduction of MSN-TA nanocontainers could alleviate the coating degradation via scavenging the radicals generated...
