Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are considered suitable candidates for structural materials of spacecrafts due to their excellent properties of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. An online health monitoring method for FRP composites must be applied to space structures. However, the application of existing health monitoring methods to space structures is limited due to the harsh space environment. Here, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites embedded with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were prepared to explore the feasibility of strain monitoring using embedded FBG sensors in γ-radiation environment. The analysis of the influence of radiation on the strain monitoring demonstrated that the embedded FBG can be successfully applied to the health monitoring of FRP composites in radiation environment.

Nanotechnology, the science of manipulating matter at the nanoscale, offers remarkable opportunities for innovation across various fields. Nanomaterials, which form the cornerstone of advanced materials, drive forward new ideas and groundbreaking applications. In the textile industry, traditional antibacterial and antifungal garments are typically treated with chemical compounds to inhibit bacterial growth. However, these treatments often lack durability, losing effectiveness after multiple washes. To address this limitation, the application of green nanotechnology in developing high-performance textiles emerges as a promising solution. This study explores the integration of nanocomposites into the polymer layers of footballs to enhance their stability and performance. By embedding nanoparticles within the polymer matrix, the durability and resilience of the footballs are significantly improved, leading to better control and performance on the field. This innovative approach not only extends the lifespan of the footballs but also provides economic advantages by reducing the frequency of replacements. Additionally, the enhanced stability contributes to a more consistent and reliable playing experience, promoting improved safety and performance for athletes.

Various polymeric electrolytes were prepared from PEG, PEO and PMMA with LiClO$_4$ to develop lithium conductive electrolytes for smart windows. The complementary electrochromic devices were fabricated with these electrolytes involving cathodically coloring WO$_3$ and anodically coloring V$_2$O$\sub$5/ thin films. The performance of electrochromic device with PMMA/LiCLO$_4$ electrolyte was found to be excellent

Cellulose(cell)/dimethylacetamide(DMAc)/lithium chloride(LiCl) solutions were prepared and spun to fibers in coagulants. Then, obtained fibers were annealed in appropriate chemicals. The fibers from cell/DMAc/LiCl showed cell III morophology prior to annealing without differenciating the kind of coagulants. Morphology of crystallite, however, was affected by annealing. Annealed fibers at 17$0^{\circ}C$ showed cell IV morphology and had better mechanical properties than others.

Polymer electrolytes consisted of $BF_3LiMA$ and 300 (PEGMA300) or 1100 (PEGMA1100) g $mol^{-1}$ of PEGMA were prepared and the electrochemical properties were characterized. Interestingly, the AC-impedance measurement shows $1.22{\times}10^{-5}S\;cm^{-1}$ of room temperature ionic conductivity from PEGMA1100 based solid polymer electrolytes while $8.54{\times}10^{-7}S\;cm^{-1}$ was observed in PEGMA300 based liquid polymer electrolytes. The more suitable coordination between lithium ion and ethylene oxide (EO) unit might be the reason of higher ionic conductivity which can be possible in PEGMA1100 based electrolytes since it has 23 EO units in monomer. The lithium ion transference number was found to be 0.6 due to the side reactions between $BF_3$ and lithium metal expecially for longer time but 0.9 was observed within 3000 seconds of measuring time which is strong evidence of a single-ion conductor.

In this study, a positive-electrode material in a lithium secondary battery $Li[Ni_{0.575}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.325}]O_2$ was synthesized as precursor by co-precipitation. Cathode material was synthesized by adding iron. The synthesized cathode material was analyzed by scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffraction. The analysis of x-ray diffraction showed that the a-axis and c-axis is increased by doping iron. And $I_{(003)}/I_{(104)}$ is increased and $I_{(006)}+I_{(102)}/I_{(101)}$ is decreased. Through this result, it was confirmed that the structural stability is improved. And impedance measurements show that the charge transfer resistance ($R_{ct}$) is lowered by doping iron. Consequently, electrochemical properties are improved by doping iron. In particular, the cycle characteristics are improved at a high temperature condition (328 K). Structural stabilities are contributing to the cycle properties.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop polymer secondary battery. This paper describes the first discharge characteristics of PAn/Li-Al secondary battery. PAn was prepared in $HBF_4$ aqueous solution by galvanostatic electropolymerization and then used as cathode active material. PAn/Li-Al secondary battery was prepared in 2025 coin type.

An electrochromic(EC) cell was constructed using $WO_3$ as a electrochromic material and NiO as a counter electrode, deposited onto ITO-coated glass by the implementation of electron beam evaporation. The electrolytic media were both lithium and proton conducting polymers such as poly-acrylonitrile(PAN)-$LiClO_4$, poly-ethylene oxide(PEO)-$LiClO_4$, poly-vinyl butyral(PVB)-LiCl and PVB-H$_3$$PO_4$. Potentiodynamic cycling of the cells using PAN-$LiClO_4$, or PVB-$H_3$$PO_4$ electrolyte yielded a transmission variation of more than 40% at the wavelength of 632.8 nm within less than 10 sec response time at room temperature. These results indicate that these electrolytes, transparent in gel type, are premising for the application in large area electrochromic windows.
