Various sizes of rod and sea-urchin shaped MnO2 microparticles have been synthesized via hydrothermal reactions with different oxidants and hydrothermal conditions. Both the microparticle morphology and mass loading significantly affect the extrudability of the GO/MnO2 mixture. In addition, the orientation of MnO2 microparticles within the fibers is largely affected by their microscopic surface areas. The composite fibers have been made electrically conductive via chemical or thermal treatments and then applied as fiber cathodes in Zn-ion battery prototypes. Thermal annealing under an argon atmosphere turns out to be an appropriate method to avoid MnO2 dissolution and leaching, which have been observed in the chemical treatments. These rGO/MnO2 fiber cathodes have been assembled into prototype Zn-ion batteries with Zn wire as the anode and xanthan-gum gel containing ZnSO4 and MnSO4 salts as the electrolyte. The resulted electrochemical output depends on the annealing temperature and MnO2 distribution within the fiber cathodes, while the best performer shows stable cycling stability at a maximum capacity of ca. 80 mA h/g.}, number={15}, journal={ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES}, author={Subjalearndee, Nakarin and He, Nanfei and Cheng, Hui and Tesatchabut, Panpanat and Eiamlamai, Priew and Phothiphiphit, Somruthai and Saensuk, Orapan and Limthongkul, Pimpa and Intasanta, Varol and Gao, Wei and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Apr}, pages={19514–19526} } @article{subjalearndee_he_cheng_tesatchabut_eiamlamai_limthongkul_intasanta_gao_zhang_2022, title={Gamma((sic))-MnO2/rGO Fibered Cathode Fabrication from Wet Spinning and Dip Coating Techniques for Cable-Shaped Zn-Ion Batteries}, volume={1}, ISSN={["2524-793X"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1007/s42765-021-00118-3}, DOI={10.1007/s42765-021-00118-3}, journal={ADVANCED FIBER MATERIALS}, author={Subjalearndee, Nakarin and He, Nanfei and Cheng, Hui and Tesatchabut, Panpanat and Eiamlamai, Priew and Limthongkul, Pimpa and Intasanta, Varol and Gao, Wei and Zhang, Xiangwu}, year={2022}, month={Jan} } @article{cheng_yan_orenstein_dirican_wei_subjalearndee_zhang_2022, title={Polyacrylonitrile Nanofiber-Reinforced Flexible Single-Ion Conducting Polymer Electrolyte for High-Performance, Room-Temperature All-Solid-State Li-Metal Batteries}, volume={4}, ISSN={["2524-793X"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1007/s42765-021-00128-1}, DOI={10.1007/s42765-021-00128-1}, number={3}, journal={ADVANCED FIBER MATERIALS}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Cheng, Hui and Yan, Chaoyi and Orenstein, Raphael and Dirican, Mahmut and Wei, Shuzhen and Subjalearndee, Nakarin and Zhang, Xiangwu}, year={2022}, month={Jan} } @article{ma_cao_dirican_subjalearndee_cheng_li_song_shi_zhang_2021, title={Fabrication, structure and supercapacitance of flexible porous carbon nanobelt webs with enhanced inter-fiber connection}, volume={543}, ISBN={1873-5584}, DOI={10.1016/j.apsusc.2020.148783}, abstractNote={Flexible carbon nanobelt webs (CNBWs) with a hierarchical porous structure, considerable N- and/or O-containing surface functionalities were fabricated by electrospinning of phenolic resin/PVP/magnesium nitrate (MNH) solution, followed by curing, thermal treatment and picking. The effect of spinning humidity on the morphology of cured fibers was investigated. The results showed that low humidity was required for successful spinning and collection of the nanobelts. The addition of MNH played a crucial role in inhibiting inter-nanobelt adhesions and warping of nanobelts during thermal treatment and producing hierarchical porous structure. The increase in MNH content resulted in an enhancement in the specific surface area (SSA), micropore volume, and mesoporosity of the CNBWs. The achieved CNBWs displayed the maximum SSA of 779 m2 g−1 and a mesoporosity of 82%. The reduction in the number of warping endowed the CNBWs with face-to-face inter-nanobelt connection, then brought about a significant enhancement in conductivity and packing density of the CNBWs, which ultimately improved the rate performance and volumetric capacitance. The work proposed a feasible route for improving the conductivity and volumetric capacity of electrospun carbon nanofiber webs as the electrode for supercapacitors or batteries.}, journal={APPLIED SURFACE SCIENCE}, author={Ma, Chang and Cao, Erchuang and Dirican, Mahmut and Subjalearndee, Nakarin and Cheng, Hui and Li, Junjing and Song, Yan and Shi, Jingli and Zhang, Xiangwu}, year={2021} } @article{ma_fan_dirican_subjalearndee_cheng_li_song_shi_zhang_2021, title={Rational design of meso-/micro-pores for enhancing ion transportation in highly-porous carbon nanofibers used as electrode for supercapacitors}, volume={545}, ISSN={["1873-5584"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.apsusc.2021.148933}, abstractNote={Carbon nanofiber has been one of the promising electrode materials for supercapacitors. It is desirable but still challenging to optimize meso-/micro-pore ratio and configuration while achieving a high specific surface area in carbon nanofibers. Here, we present the design and preparation of carbon nanofiber mats with both high specific surface area and rational meso-/micropore configuration by electrospinning tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS)/phenolic resin (PR)/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/F127 blend solution, followed by carbothermal reduction, removal of carbon and chlorination. Silicon carbide nanofibers constructed by regulatable secondary nanostructure were achieved by adjusting TEOS content in the spinning solution, derived from which microporous carbon nanofibers with considerable mesopores (60–70% in mesoporosity), diverse secondary nanostructure (24–44 nm), and high specific surface area (1765–1890 m2 g−1) were prepared. The formation mechanism of the diverse secondary nanostructure in carbon nanofiber was proposed. The carbide-derived carbon nanofibers showed an excellent specific capacitance (316 F g−1 at 0.1 A g−1) and high-rate capability (186 F g−1 at 100 A g−1) due to the enhanced ion transportation, which was achieved by shortening micropore channels and offering convenient mesoporous channel towards microporous domains.}, journal={APPLIED SURFACE SCIENCE}, author={Ma, Chang and Fan, Qingchao and Dirican, Mahmut and Subjalearndee, Nakarin and Cheng, Hui and Li, Junjing and Song, Yan and Shi, Jingli and Zhang, Xiangwu}, year={2021}, month={Apr} }
