Journal ArticleDOI

Direct observation of the formation and stabilization of metallic nanoparticles on carbon supports

TL;DR: It is found that the formation of metallic nanoparticles is associated with the simultaneous phase transition of amorphous carbon to a highly defective turbostratic graphite (T-graphite), which strengthens the anchoring and provides excellent thermal stability to the nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

High temperature thermal management with boron nitride nanosheets

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an h-BN thin film composed of layer-by-layer laminated hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets can effectively enhance the lateral heat dissipation on the substrate and provide an effective approach to improve the heat Dissipation in integrated circuits and high power devices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermally Stable Cellulose Nanocrystals toward High-Performance 2D and 3D Nanostructures.

TL;DR: Versatile cellulose nanocrystals (DM-OA-CNCs) are prepared through fully recyclable oxalic acid (OA) hydrolysis along with disk-milling (DM) pretreatment of bleached kraft eucalyptus pulp and show several advantages including large aspect ratio, carboxylated surface, and excellent thermal stability along with high yield.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Performance, Scalable Wood-Based Filtration Device with a Reversed-Tree Design

TL;DR: Water shortage is one of the most pressing challenges across the world and wood, a natural and sustainable material, possesses a unique hierarchical three-dimensional interconnected microstructur...
