A facile two-step method has been developed to synthesize 3D core/shell-structured composites (CNTs@Ni–Co–S) composed of ternary nickel cobalt sulfide nanosheets (Ni–Co–S) as the shell and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the core on a flexible Ni mesh (Ni@CNTs@Ni–Co–S).

Abstract The carbon sphere (CS)@nickel cobalt sulfide core-shell nanocomposite at five different mole ratios have been synthesized by a facile low-temperature water-bath method without any thermal treatment. The XRD results on CS, NiCo2S4 and its ternary complexation confirms nanocomposite formation which matches with the cubic structure. The FTIR confirms the complexation of CS and metal-sulfide core-shell. TEM morphology shows CS at NiCo2S4 forming a core-shell which appears as interlinked bunch of grapes. The BET surface analysis observes the high surface area for the core-shell. The XPS studies confirm the elemental presence and valence states of metal composition of the core-shell. Electrochemical studies on the pure NiCo2S4 and CS@NiCo2S4 have shown that CS@NiCo2S4 in 1:1 ratio (scn2) only exhibits higher specific capacitance of 838 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 with capacity retention of 89 % for 5000 cycles than other mole ratios. Using this scn2, asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device fabrication has been studied. The electrochemical studies on ASC reveal high energy density of 101 Wh kg−1 with the power density of 6.3 k W kg−1, and having good cycling stability with 92 % of capacitance retention even after 3000 cycles at 20 A g−1.

This work deals with the strain at the core-shell interface of Fe nanoparticles. Series of Fe nanoparticles with various mean diameters were prepared by precipitation in solid state in binary Cu-Fe alloy. Further, nanoparticles were isolated by dissolution of Cu matrix. High-energy X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to probe structure of nanoparticles. XRD measurements suggest presence of the core-shell structure, where core and shell of the nanoparticles are formed of α-Fe and CuFe2O4 phase, respectively. Strains in core and shell were estimated as a function of nanoparticles size by Williamson-Hall method.

In order to obtain super aerogels heat insulating composite materials with silane coupling agent on the in-situ surface treatment. The core-shell structure composite materials have been prepared by dispersion polymerization process of polystyrene grafted on the SiO2 particles. By TEM on these samples the impact of the system components initiator polymerization parameters and dispersion process was discussed. The results showed that the system component of the greatest impact on conversion rate is the ratio of aerogels /St ,the optimum reaction temperature is 75 °C.With organic initiator KPS as initiator after a unique ultrasound technique to obtain the core-shell composite materials structure which coating is 70%.

Coaxial core/shell electrospun nanofibers consisting of ferroelectric P(VDF-TrFE) and relaxor ferroelectric P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) are tailor-made with hierarchical structures to modulate their mechanical properties with respect to their constituents. Compared with two single and the other coaxial membranes prepared in the research, the core/shell-TrFE/CTFE membrane shows a more prominent mechanical anisotropy between revolving direction (RD) and cross direction (CD) associated with improved resistance to tensile stress for the crystallite phase stability and good strength-ductility balance. This is due to the better degree of core/shell-TrFE-CTFE nanofiber alignment and the crystalline/amorphous ratio. The coupling between terpolymer P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) and copolymer P(VDF-TrFE) is responsible for phase stabilization, comparing the core/shell-TrFE/CTFE with the pristine terpolymer. Moreover, an impressive collective deformation mechanism of a two-length scale in the core/shell composite structure is found. We apply in-situ synchrotron X-ray to resolve the two-length scale simultaneously by using the small-angle X-ray scattering to characterize the nanofibers and the wide-angle X-ray diffraction to identify the phase transformations. Our findings may serve as guidelines for the fabrication of the electrospun nanofibers used as membranes-based electroactive polymers.

In this paper, vinylated magnesium hydroxide (MH) nanosheets were prepared with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (γ-MPS) and pristine MH nanosheets, then the MH/polymer hybrid nanoparticles were prepared by in-situ emulsion copolymerization of vinylated MH nanosheets and styrene (St) monomer and styrene/butyl acrylate (St/BA) comonomer. The morphology, thermal stability and chemical structure of the final products were investigated in detail with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The TEM results showed that the core-shell structure of MH/Polymer nanoparticles with MH-cores and Polymer-shell was formed.

ABSTRACTIn this paper we present an overview of two very different approaches to the synthesis of composite particulates which result in a “core-shell” type structure. It is shown that both these synthesis approaches result in very characteristic interface structures between the outer coating and the host particles. One synthesis strategy is to use laser ablation deposition on individual particles and the other is to “coat” particles ‘in-situ’ by taking advantage of solid state diffusional transformations. Examination of the interface between the outer shell and the core of the particle shows that textured or toptactical growth occurs and it is suggested that this unique crystallographic characteristic may be responsible for the properties offered by these engineered particulates. The applications of such engineered particulates is also discussed.
