摘要
Cellulose-based composites typically have poor water resistance because they are cross-linked through non-covalent bonds, such as hydrogen bonds. Herein, furan group was grafted onto sisal microcrystalline cellulose fiber (F-MSF) and a dynamic thermally reversible cross-linked network structure was formed with maleimide modified CaCu3Ti4O12 (D-CCTO) to obtain recyclable D-CCTO/F-MSF composites (DFF) through the Diels-Alder reaction. The results showed that the mechanical properties of DFF composites were improved due to the improvement of the cross-linked structure between D-CCTO and F-MSF. At 1 wt% D-CCTO content, the tensile strength of DFF was 5.53 MPa, which increased by 346% compared with that of pure MSF. At 5 wt% D-CCTO content, the short-circuit current, open circuit voltage, transferred charge of DFF-based triboelectric nanogenerators (DF-TENG) were 3.2 mu A, 85 V and 26 nC, respectively. Additionally, the DF-TENG was able to maintain its electrical performance of more than 60% at an ambient humidity of 90% and was able to light up more than 30 LED bulbs. This research provides new insights into addressing the challenge of poor water resistance in conventional cellulose-based composites, while also designing a recyclable TENG device that can harvest energy in high humidity environments.
