    Abstract Electrode structure is an essential factor affecting the performance of flexible humidity sensors. In this study, Cu and Cu2 + 1O electrodes were printed by the one-step method using laser direct writing technology to reduce the nano-CuO ink on flexible substrate PI and to be used for a humidity sensor. The resistance of the humidity sensors with nine various electrode structures was measured under the relative humidity (RH) of 16-78%. It was observed that all sensors showed good humidity sensing characteristics, and the sensitivity of the copper-based humidity sensor was not affected by the electrode structure under low humidity conditions but was significant under high humidity conditions. The sensor with the length of 1960 μm and the width of 120 μm shows the lowest sensitivity of 180.2 KΩ/%RH under 35% RH, and the sensor with the length of 2430 μm and the width of 180 μm shows the highest sensitivity of 1744 kΩ/%RH under 65% RH. It is expected that the results can provide an assessment of the performance improvement of the flexible humidity sensor and a reference for the research and development of intelligent wearable devices.

    Abstract To accelerate the high value-added usage of agricultural residue, cellulose and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were extracted from wheat straw and then formed into all-cellulose nanocomposite films. The acid-alkali method (AM) and the extraction method (EM) were respectively adopted to prepare wheat straw cellulose (WSC), and the TEMPO oxidation method was used to extract CNFs. The nanocomposite films were fabricated by dissolving WSC and adding different CNF contents of 0.0, 0.5, 1.5, and 3.0%. There was a better miscibility for the all-cellulose nanocomposite film prepared by EM (Composite-E) compared to that for the all-cellulose nanocomposite film prepared by AM (Composite-A). Composite-E also showed a better optical transparency than Composite-A. The thermal stability of the two RWSCs presented contrary results when the CNFs were added, indicating a higher thermal stability for Composite-E than for Composite-A. This should have determined the properties of the films in which Cellulose I and Cellulose II coexisted for the all-cellulose nanocomposite films, and the forming mechanism of Cellulose II and crystallinity were determined by the cellulose-extracting method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy also showed that there was more Cellulose I in Composite-E than in Composite-A. The results are expected to enrich the data for deep processing of agricultural residues.

    Abstract Background: There is a need to help farmers and industries develop value-added composite and nanocomposite materials from agricultural residuals. Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were made using a TEMPO oxidation method and celluloses were prepared by acid-base method and extracting method, which were all from corn stalk, an agricultural residual. The prepared celluloses were dissolved separately in dimethylacetamide/LiCl solvent and CNFs were added at 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.5% and 3.0% to form all-cellulose nanocomposites, and then cast into films. Morphology, structure and properties of the nanocomposite films were characterized using atomic force microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction and mechanical testing.
    Results: The all-cellulose nanocomposite films with different cellulose matrices exhibited good optical transparency and layer structure. The all-cellulose nanocomposite films with cellulose prepared by the extracting method (Composite E) exhibited a higher crystallinity, better thermal stability and higher mechanical strength compared to the all-cellulose nanocomposite films with cellulose prepared by the acid-base method (Composite A).
    Conclusions: The crystal structure of the all-cellulose nanocomposite films indicated the coexistence of cellulose I and cellulose II. However, in contrast to Composite A, the diffraction intensity of cellulose I in Composite E was higher than that of cellulose II. This was another reason that the mechanical properties of Composite E were superior to those of Composite A. In addition, the mechanical properties of the all-cellulose nanocomposite films were significantly different when the addition of CNFs reached 3.0% by weight, as indicated by a multiple-range comparison. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

    Abstract In this study, apples were damaged by dropping from different heights(40、60、80、100 and 120 cm) to the marble ground and stored at 1 °C and then the quality and dielectric parameters of the apples were measured after different storage durations (1、5、9、13、17、21 and 25 d). The results showed that the firmness, density, titratable acidity (TA), vitamin C and moisture content decreased, the browning degree and total soluble solid/titratable acidity(TSS/TA) increased, the total soluble solid (TSS) exhibited a increasing–decreasing trend with the storage time increased. The higher the drop height of the apples, the lower the firmness, density, TSS, TA, vitamin C and moisture content and the greater the browning degree and TSS/TA. A principal component analysis showed that two principle components could represent the dielectric parameters of the damaged fruit, and the accumulated variance contribution rate was more than 80%. At the characteristic frequency, which was selected using a gray correlation analysis, the principle components predicted the quality parameters and established the prediction models for quality parameters. The determination coefficients of prediction equation about density, TSS, TA, vitamin C and moisture content were all greater than 0.6, it was indicated that the prediction results of these quality parameters were better. The results are expected to provide a reference for the rapid evaluation of quality changes for damaged fruit by using electrical properties.

    Abstract BACKGROUND: In order to help farmers and industries develop value-added composite and nano materials from agricultural residuals. Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were made by using a TEMPO oxidation method and celluloses were prepared by acid-base method and extracting method, which were all from corn stalk, an agricultural residual. The prepared celluloses were dissolved separately in DMAc/LiCl solvent and added CNFs of 0.0, 0.5, 1.5 and 3.0% to form all-cellulose nanocomposite, and then casted into films. Morphology, structure and properties of the nanocomposite films were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and mechanical testing. RESULTS: The all-cellulose nanocomposite films with different cellulose cellulose matrix exhibited a good optical transparency and layer structure. The all-cellulose nanocomposites films with the cellulose prepared by the extracting method (Composite E) exhibited a higher crystallinity, better thermal stability and higher mechanical strength than those of the all-cellulose nanocomposites films with the cellulose prepared by the acid-base method (Composite A). CONCLUSION: Crystal structure of the all-cellulose nanocomposite films all presented a co-existence of Cellulose I and Cellulose II. However, on the contrary to Composite A, the diffraction intensity of Cellulose I in Composite E was higher than that of Cellulose II. This was another reason that the mechanical properties of Composite E were superior to Composite A. In addition, the mechanical properties of the all-cellulose nanocomposites films were significantly different when the addition of CNF reached 3.0% in weight, as indicated by a multiple-range comparison.

    Abstract The quality of an apple is influenced by static pressures during transport and storage. In this study, apples were subjected to different static pressures using a universal testing machine, and then the quality and dielectric parameters of the apples were measured after different storage durations (22 ± 1°C, 35–40% relative humidity). The results showed that the firmness and vitamin C content decreased and the total soluble solid (TSS) content, titratable acidity (TA), and total soluble solid/titratable acidity (TSS/TA) exhibited a decreasing–increasing–decreasing trend as the storage time increased. A principal component analysis (PCA) showed that two principle components could represent the dielectric parameters of the damaged fruit. At the characteristic frequency, which was selected using a gray correlation analysis, the principle components predicted the quality parameters and established a prediction model for the firmness, TSS content, and TSS/TA. The results are expected to provide a rapid evaluation method for damaged fruit using dielectric properties. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Mechanical damage to apples is often caused by external forces during harvesting, storage, and transport. During storage, injured fruits are infected easily by fungi and ultimately cause decay. In addition, rotten fruits and healthy fruits are stored together, which also leads to cross‐infection and causes large economic losses. Therefore, a simple and practical technique to detect and evaluate the quality of damaged fruits is urgent. In this study, we conducted a study to measure the quality and dielectric parameters of apples that were subjected to different static pressures and found that two principle components could represent the dielectric parameters of the damaged fruit by PCA. At the characteristic frequency, which was selected using a gray correlation analysis, the principle components predicted the quality parameters and established a prediction model for the firmness, TSS content, and TSS/TA. The results are expected to provide a rapid evaluation method for damaged fruit using dielectric properties.
