Radiation‐Based 3D Dual‐Mode Thermal Management Devices: Advances in Active/Passive Switching for Energy‐Saving Applications

Small, EarlyView.
Heating and cooling energy demand account for nearly half of the global energy consumption. SH and RC offer sustainable, zero‐energy strategies, but single‐mode devices lack adaptability. 3D dual‐mode devices, exploiting axial, flipping, and bending deformations, provide reversible switching with dynamic or passive control, representing a promising ...

Large‐Scale MXene Membrane Fabrication via Nonsolvent Phase Separation

Small Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past decade, 2D MXenes have garnered tremendous attention for membrane applications owing to their exceptional hydrophilicity, tunable surface chemistry, and antifouling properties. However, translating MXene‐based membranes from laboratory demonstrations to practically relevant manufacturing remains challenging because scalable ...

A prospective randomised pilot study evaluating the safety of the novel LubriShield™ Foley catheter: a permanently coated indwelling urinary catheter

Scandinavian Journal of Urology
Objective: Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are prevalent healthcare-associated infections, arising from biofilm-forming bacteria. This may be prevented by coating the catheter with an antifouling substance.

Transparent Antifouling Coatings

The present project aims at designing a transparent, antifouling coating for use on solar cells and sensors on underwater drones or unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV). Our vision of a product is based on existing self-polishing antifouling coating technology, in combination with new specialized raw materials and formulation principles.

Tributyltin Protumorigenic Effects Targeting Prostate Cancer Cell Metabolism, Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is an endocrine‐related cancer highly dependent on androgenic signaling. Beyond hormone dependence, extrinsic factors play a significant role in the risk of developing PCa, which raises concern about the influence of environmental compounds such as endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Tributyltin (TBT) is an EDC used in
