However, there remain numerous challenges (i.e., lubrication, thermal management, electrical compatibility, and corrosion, among others) that can hamper their performance, efficiency, and reliability, and hence the sustainability of EVs in the long run. Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer impressive multi-functional characteristics, including unusual thermal, electrical, and tribological properties which can beneficially impact the smooth, safe, efficient, and long-lasting operation of EVs. Therefore, in this perspective, we summarize the most recent developments related to 2D materials which can synergistically address tribological, electrical, and thermal management issues and thus enable superior performance, efficiency, and reliability in future EVs. We hope that the highlighted remarkable properties of 2D materials can generate more research efforts in this direction and eventually lead to the development of an EV-based green and sustainable transportation future for generations to come.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":386,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: R: Reports","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 100855"},"PeriodicalIF":31.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142243402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Administering antineoplastic drugs to suppress the growth or destroy cancer cells is one of the most effective treatments, which is widely practiced at present. These anticancer drugs are designed to target cancer cells, whereas in a few cases, they could also become toxic to non-cancerous cells, posing risks not only to patients but also to healthcare workers and the soil and aquatic environments. Therefore, the concentrations of these drugs need to be quantified precisely at their nano/picomolar levels to attain better efficacy of the intended treatment, safeguard the patients from adverse effects, and protect the environment. Among various methodologies, electrochemical techniques are highly appreciated owing to their high sensitivity and selectivity, low cost, ease of operation, rapid response, low sample requirement, and ease of miniaturization. Even though hundreds of sensors have been reported for the electrochemical detection of these antineoplastic drugs, only a few reviews highlighted their prominence. While certain aspects of the electrochemistry of antineoplastic drugs can be found in those reviews, many important aspects are still inadequately addressed and remain significantly behind the current state of the art. Thus, we intend to bridge this gap by systematically reviewing the electrochemical sensors developed for the selective detection of various antineoplastic drugs. Significant emphasis has been given to the electrode materials, fabrication procedures, and sensing strategies, as well as a comparison of their analytical performances and evaluation of their advantages and limitations.

Structural regulations and hybridization with foreign components have been extensively used to improve the microwave absorption performance of MoS₂. This review introduces the characteristics and microwave absorption mechanisms of MoS₂ nanomaterials for a comprehensive analysis, and systematically emphasizes the related key issues by summarizing progress of MoS₂-based microwave absorption materials. Three strategies are considered, namely (1) structural regulation of MoS₂ monocomponent via the control of morphology, heteroatom doping, defects and phases; (2) loss mechanism regulation of binary MoS₂-based composites via hybridization with other dielectric materials (e.g., carbon, MXene and polymer) or magnetic materials (e.g., ferrites and magnetic metals/alloys); (3) realization of multicomponent MoS₂-based composites with multidimensional hierarchical architectures using one-, two- and three-dimensional structures. Micro/nanostructure regulation, hybridization with foreign material and architectural design are discussed as the methods of controlling the loss mechanisms, impedance matching and microwave absorption performance of MoS₂-based composites.
