报告内容简介：

The hydrogen bond (H-bond) is a ubiquitous, key element of many natural and synthetic materials including proteins, hydrogels, organic electronics, and peptide-based biomaterials. Weaker than covalent bonds and stronger than the van der Waals attraction, H-bonds play a critical role in mechanical, thermal, and electrochemical processes of H-bonded materials. This talk will focus on two H-bonded material systems that have exceptional thermal performance. The first is the beta-sheet structures which are common in proteins. Due to the strong H-bond network between biomolecular chains, thermal conductivities of the biopolymer bundles are found to be much higher than that of their constituting chains. This is counterintuitive as it’s opposite to what has been discovered for other nanostructured materials including carbon nanotube bundles and few-layer graphene. The second example is a graphene/polymer composite with specially designed H-bonded interfaces between the two constituents of drastically different properties. Due to the new thermal pathways enabled by interfacial H-bonds, the material has demonstrated superior thermal properties that are unavailable in other polymeric composites. In both cases, material interfaces play critical roles; and our theoretical work has provided novel physical insights into the underpinning molecular mechanisms and established valuable guidelines to accelerate materials design..
