Summary: This study demonstrates the reduction and functionalization of graphene oxide (GO) into phenothiazine (PTZ)-reduced graphene oxide (PTZ-rGO) aerogel. PTZ is excited by UV light to reduce GO through electron transfer, while being oxidized and functionalized onto rGO simultaneously to form PTZ-rGO aerogel. The incorporation of PTZ onto rGO sheets improves the electrochemical active surface area and diffusion behavior, leading to a high charge storage capacity of 235.5 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 and a stable capacitance retention of 92% after 10,000 cycles. This makes PTZ-rGO an excellent electrode material for supercapacitor fabrication.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
