Abstract
An innovative Janus-structured self-healing composite engineered through multiscale design principles synergizes molecular-level dynamic bonding with macroscopic functional architectures, resolving the persistent challenge of balancing mechanical robustness (43.48 MPa tensile strength, 1185 % elongation) and autonomous repair capability. The composite system uniquely integrates triboelectric energy harvesting (1.89 mW/m2 power density) with multifunctional performance metrics critical for advanced engineering applications: antimicrobial efficacy (96.98 % against E. coli, 97.88 % against S. aureus), UV shielding (UPF 1086.2), and antioxidant retention (93.3 %). Leveraging advanced interface engineering techniques, we demonstrate scalable manufacturing of Janus-type structures enabling concurrent biomechanical energy conversion and biological protection mechanisms. In conclusion, the self-healing wearable device based on the multi-functional Janus has sustainability and environmental friendliness and has broad application potential in the fields of collecting environmental energy, biosensors, and self-powered antibacterial.
期刊介绍:
Composites Part B: Engineering is a journal that publishes impactful research of high quality on composite materials. This research is supported by fundamental mechanics and materials science and engineering approaches. The targeted research can cover a wide range of length scales, ranging from nano to micro and meso, and even to the full product and structure level. The journal specifically focuses on engineering applications that involve high performance composites. These applications can range from low volume and high cost to high volume and low cost composite development.
The main goal of the journal is to provide a platform for the prompt publication of original and high quality research. The emphasis is on design, development, modeling, validation, and manufacturing of engineering details and concepts. The journal welcomes both basic research papers and proposals for review articles. Authors are encouraged to address challenges across various application areas. These areas include, but are not limited to, aerospace, automotive, and other surface transportation. The journal also covers energy-related applications, with a focus on renewable energy. Other application areas include infrastructure, off-shore and maritime projects, health care technology, and recreational products.
