Here, we fabricate highly conducting PVA nanocomposite fibers with high thermal and chemical stability based on AgNB/MWCNT hybrid materials as conducting fillers. These remarkable characteristics make our fibers suitable for applications in e-textile.

In this study, we investigated the epitaxial growth of PVDF-TrFE on a chitin film for developing TENGs. The crystallographic match between the chitin and PVDF-TrFE enables the development of the intended crystal orientation, with the PVDF-TrFE polarization axis aligned perpendicular to the substrate.

Here, we introduce an ice-templated self-assembly approach for the integration of two-dimensional graphene nanosheets into hierarchically porous graphene nanoscroll networks, where the morphology of porous structures can be easily controlled by varying the pH conditions during the ice-templated self-assembly process.
