In this study, novel nylon/spandex elastomeric burn pressure garments were developed with a durable antimicrobial performance using silane and quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC's). A series of physical, mechanical and thermophysiological properties were tested before and after the application of the antimicrobial finish, including air permeability, stiffness, drapeability, bursting strength and extensibility, thermal resistance (Rct) and thermal insulation (in clo units). Antimicrobial tests were performed after 50 washing cycles using AATCC 100 Test Method, and they showed a 99% reduction in bacterial activity for those fabrics treated with the QAC-Silane antimicrobial agents. Physical, mechanical and thermophysiological properties were tested after antimicrobial treatments. A small significant increase was observed in terms of thermal resistance (Rct) (Tog) and isolation (It) (clo) properties for treated fabrics samples. The air permeability, bursting strength and drapeability showed a small significant decrease after antimicrobial finishing, while the elastomeric fabric showed a small but significant increase for fabric stiffness. These results confirm that when these novel pressure garments are used by burn patients, they will not only decrease the incidence of infection but will also provide comfort during prolonged use.

Nanofiber-based membranes were prepared by two different methods for use as separators for Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In the first method, Electrospinning was used for the fabrication of Polyvinylidene fluoride PVDF nanofiber coatings on polyolefin microporous membrane separators to improve their electrolyte uptake and electrochemical performance. The nanofiber-coated membrane separators show better electrolyte uptake and ionic conductivity than that for the uncoated membranes. In the second method, Forcespinning® (FS) was used to fabricate fibrous cellulose membranes as separators for LIBs. The cellulose fibrous membranes were made by the Forcespinning® of a cellulose acetate solution precursor followed by a subsequent alkaline hydrolysis treatment. The results show that the fibrous cellulose membrane-based separator exhibits high electrolyte uptake and good electrolyte/electrode wettability and therefore can be a good candidate for high performance and high safety LIB separators.

Centrifugal spinning is a simple and versatile technique for producing nanofibers from various materials. One major application of centrifugal spinning is to produce advanced functional nanofibers for energy storage. Among the various existing energy storage technologies, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries have been considered as effective solution to the increasing need for highenergy density electrochemical power sources. Novel centrifugally-spun nanofibers with functional properties can dramatically alter surface reaction rates and charge transport throughout the batteries, causing significant improvement in energy storage efficiency. Here, we present our work on the development of advanced functional nanofibers and the integration of these materials into rechargeable lithium-ion batteries to achieve high system performance.

The epoxy composites with high thermal conductivity for metal-core printed circuit board(MCPCB) can be prepared by varnish coating and a hot press method. Alumina filler of plate-like shape was used as primary micro-filler, while plate-like alumina filler, h-BN, a-BN and s-BN filler were used for blending into the plate-like alumina filler as the secondary filler. Results showed that the secondary fillers a-BN and s-BN loaded epoxy composites have higher thermal conductivity than alumina filler single-loaded composites. Also, BN filler has high thermal conductivity, but h-BN filled epoxy composite has lower thermal conductivity than alumina filled epoxy composite. The decrease of voids in epoxy composite are very important, and the filler shape and surface modification is also necessary to achieve high thermal conductivity in epoxy composite for MCPCB

Kevlar fiber are artifical fibers that have been globally commonly used due to their attributes of a high modulus, a low elongation, an impact resistance, a chemical resistance, and thermostability. Therefore, this study proposes nonwoven geotextiles by corporating with recycled Kevlar unidirectoinal selvage with a low production cost, crimped polyester(PET) fibers, and low-melting-point PET(LPET) fibers. The content of LPET fiber is specified as 20 wt%, while the content of Kevlar fiber varies as 0 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 15 wt%, and 20 wt%. The optimal tear strength of 195 N occurs with a content of Kevlar fiber being 20 wt%.
