“…Porwal et al 27 reported the reduction of GO nanoplatelet to the crystalline graphitic phase of graphene nanoplatelets during SPS. A review article on the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and grapheme-reinforced YSZ nanocomposites is very recently published by Zhang et al 28 There is limited literature on flash sintering of composites containing carbonaceous materials. [29][30][31][32] Xiao et al 30 showed that it is possible to flash sinter composites of 3YSZ and rGO at room temperature and in air.…”

Flash sintering is a novel technique that involves the sintering of green bodies in few seconds at relatively very low furnace temperature as compared to what is required to sinter them conventionally. In the present work, we flash‐sintered composites of 3 mol.% yttria‐stabilized zirconia (3YSZ) and graphene oxide (GO). The main aim of this work was to see if the decomposition or oxidation of carbonaceous materials can be prevented by the high heating rates during flash sintering and if composites of 3YSZ and GO can be processed in air. 3YSZ with 5, 10, and 20 wt.% of GO were prepared and subjected to constant heating rate flash‐sintering experiments where electric field was applied across the sample right from room temperature. A DC electric field of 100 V/cm was applied and the current density was set to 100 mA/mm2. It was observed that GO decomposed from the surface of the samples; however, in the core of samples, GO was retained but was reduced to graphite. Grain size of the 3YSZ phase increased with increase in the GO content, whereas the hardness decreased. It was observed that the composites containing carbonaceous reinforcements need to be flash sintered in inert atmosphere to realize their full potential.

“…Key points for achieving higher microhardness, lower friction coefficients and lower wear include a high carbon content, the homogeneity of the CNT dispersion, a good interfacial bonding and a high relative density. In spite of many potential applications, notably in the field of biomaterials, the friction behavior of CNT-zirconia nanocomposites is scarcely addressed [15][16][17] compared to the mechanical properties [18]. These studies are focused on yttria-stabilized zirconia in which either single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs) [15] or multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs) [16,17] have been dispersed.…”

Double-walled carbon nanotube-yttria-stabilized ZrO2 nanocomposites are prepared by a mixing route followed by Spark Plasma Sintering. Incorporation of carbon at contents higher than 2 wt.% results in significantly lower friction coefficients, both against alumina and steel balls. Double-walled carbon nanotubes improve wear resistance and reduce friction without severe damage, contrary to multi-walled carbon nanotubes.

“…They have broadband light absorption capability, thus have been frequently explored for fabrication of solar evaporators. [ 37–39 ] Moreover, their 1D morphology has special advantages particularly when they are utilized for fabrication of composite materials with other 0D or 2D materials, [ 40–44 ] which allow the generated composite materials to have tough 3D structures for unique applications such as flexible and wearable devices [ 45,46 ] and flexible heater.

Solar steam generation to generating steam through solar light drived surface evaporation (SIE) can be an attractive methodology which utilizes green and inexhaustible solar energy to generate water steam and fresh water in superior efficiency compared with the solar evaporators explored before. However, some drawbacks of the current photothermal conversion materials such as complicated fabrication process, high cost, and low salt tolerance often heavily restrict their wide applications. Herein, we design and develop a green and low‐cost method for constructing free‐standing, elastic and highly tough 3D network of carbon nanotubes and MXene though an efficient “egg‐box” coordination mechanism in only one step for high‐efficiency water evaporation. When the mass ratios of MXene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are designed at 2:1, 1:1, 1:1.5 and 1:2, and cross‐linked with sodium alginate (SA) and CaCl2, four composite materials (MCS‐1, MCS‐2, MCS‐3 and MCS‐4) are obtained, among which MCS‐3 shows the most excellent light absorption and hydrophilicity, leading to the best evaporation rate of 1.644 kg m‐2 h‐1, and the highest photothermal conversion efficiency of 96%. Moreover, subject to different harsh environments and durability tests, MCS‐3 also shows desired structural stability and evaporation performance. As demonstrated by its extraordinary photothermal evaporation properties, MCS‐3 could envision a wide range of commercial applications covering wastewater purification and brine sea water desalination etc.This article is protected by copyright.
