The partial loss of intramolecular interactions and concurrent gain of non-native intrinsically disordered regions with sticky groups become crucial for both aggressive heteromeric primary nucleation and secondary nucleation events.

CMCs combine the high temperature resistance of ceramics with the high mechanical strength of ceramic fibers into a single unit. Interphase layers are a crucial component in CMCs, as they prevent ceramic fibers from oxidation and introduce strengthening mechanisms into the composite. Hexagonal boron nitride and pyrolytic carbon are the most commonly used interphase layers in the aerospace industry. Other than that, very few materials have been evaluated as interphase layers. In this study, we explore the possibilities of using titanium nitride as an interphase layer in single-tow CMCs (mini composite) representative of a unidirectional composite at a smaller scale. T-300 carbon fibers were coated with TiN by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor infiltration using TiCl<sub>4</sub>, N<sub>2</sub>, and H<sub>2</sub>. The deposition temperature, precursor flow rate ratio, total precursor flow rate, and deposition time were optimized to obtain high-quality coatings. The best coating was produced at 800 °C, 4:1 H<sub>2</sub> [TiCl<sub>4</sub>]/N<sub>2</sub> ratio, 125 standard cubic centimeters per minute (N<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub> [TiCl<sub>4</sub>]) total flow precursor flow rate, and 2 h of deposition time. At these conditions, the coatings displayed good fiber coverage, good fiber adhesion, minimum fiber linkage, and minimum surface roughness. There was minimum fiber degradation after TiN coating, with a retention of 95% of the initial Young's modulus and 26% of the ultimate tensile strength of the carbon fiber. Adding the TiN interphase coating to the Cf/SiC CMC increased the ultimate tensile strength of the composite by 1122% and Young's modulus by 150%.</p>","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142398624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, a novel and facile polymerization-regulated optimal strategy is adapted to realize the comprehensive performance of polyimide (PI) aerogel membranes with mechanical robustness, high flexibility, hydrophobicity, light transmittance, and efficient thermal insulation. Benefiting from the hydrolysis of monomers and chemical imidization reaction process verified by a thermo-chemo-mechanically coupled theoretical model, the viscosity of precursors, shrinkage rate, and microstructure of aerogels are precisely controlled, leading to a low thermal conductivity range of 0.023-0.044 W/(m·K). The fabricated PI aerogel membranes, which undergo a remarkable transformation from their initial brittle and opaque nature to a state of high flexibility and transparency, exhibit a 3.0 times increase in tensile strength (4.6 MPa) and a 8.4 times improvement in elongation at break (20.6%) over previous studies while demonstrating an exceptional light transmittance of 92.5% across a wide spectral range from 500 to 2500 nm. Additionally, the PI aerogel membranes possess superior mechanical properties and a wide temperature resistance range extending from -196 to 300 °C. These flexible PI aerogel membranes can be effectively adjusted to meet the practical application of a circular ring solar thermal collector, which displayed a high solar heat collection temperature of 135 °C at a thickness of 0.5 mm.

As these methods/applications rely on machine learning models for data analysis, studying the threats associated with adversarial examples in vibrational spectroscopy and defenses against them is of great importance. In this paper, we propose a novel adversarial method to attack vibrational spectroscopy, named SynPat, where synthetic peaks produced by a physical model are placed at key locations to form adversarial perturbations. Our new attack generates perturbations that successfully deceive machine learning models for Raman and infrared spectrum analysis while they blend much better into the spectra and hence are unnoticeable to human operators, unlike the existing state-of-the-art adversarial attacking methods, e.g., images and audio. We verified the superiority of the proposed SynPat by an imperceptibility test conducted by human experts and of defense experiments by an AI detector. To the best of our knowledge, this is a first thorough study on the robustness of vibrational spectroscopic techniques against adversarial samples and defense mechanisms. Our extensive experiments show that machine learning models for vibrational spectroscopy, including conventional and deep models for Raman or infrared classification and regression, are all vulnerable to adversarial perturbations and thus may pose serious security threats to our society.</p>","PeriodicalId":27,"journal":{"name":"Analytical Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142398686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
