The 14th Shenzhen International Thermally Conductive Materials and Equipment Exhibition, also known as CIME2025, is set to take place on June 4-6, 2025, at the Shenzhen International Convention and Exhibition Center. With an expansive exhibition area of 20,000 square meters, the event is expected to host 500 exhibitors, 30 academic presentations, and attract approximately 30,000 professional visitors. CIME, originating in Shenzhen in 2013, has evolved over the past decade into a prestigious industry event in the field of thermal management and thermally conductive materials, now hosting exhibitions in Shenzhen in June and in Shanghai in December.
Researchers have recently developed a novel light-responsive double network hydrogel based on methyl acrylated peptide nanofibers (PNFMA) with high biocompatibility, excellent biodegradability, and multifunctionality for the modulation of cancer cells in photothermal therapy.
Single layer graphene is known as the "king of materials" due to its unique two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure and electronic band characteristics, which exhibit excellent performance in conductivity and thermal conductivity. The following is a detailed analysis of its conductivity and thermal conductivity:
A groundbreaking study published in Advanced Functional Materials on February 16, 2025, unveiled a novel MXene thin film protected by reduced graphene oxide (rGO), termed rGM. This innovative film boasts exceptional charge transfer capabilities and the remarkable ability to stay stable in the ambient air. The protective rGO layer effectively shields the conducting layer of MXene from air oxidation, significantly enhancing air stability. After 40 days of exposure to air at 25°C and 40% relative humidity, the membrane resistance of the rGM film (135.9±2.3Ω/sq - 312.6±4.5Ω/sq) showed negligible amplification compared to the pure MXene film (145.0±2.3Ω/sq - 2,152.8±6.8Ω/sq).
In a groundbreaking study reported on March 28, 2025, in the prestigious journal Nature Synthesis, researchers achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of materials science. By employing precise etching techniques guided by theoretical computations, they successfully obtained atomically ordered W2TiC2Tx MXene, a novel two-dimensional material. This achievement revolutionizes the challenges associated with interlayer delamination, paving the way for innovative applications of MXene powder in various fields, particularly in hydrogen production through water electrolysis.
Recent breakthrough research published in the journal Small in April 2025 has unveiled a groundbreaking approach in cancer treatment. Scientists have developed a multifunctional nano-delivery system, TMBFG, by surface modifying MXene powder through a non-chemical modification strategy using bovine serum albumin (BSA). This innovative system combines MXene with manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles, folic acid (FA), and glucose oxidase (GOx) to target cancer cells, induce starvation, and achieve photothermal double killing effects.
