Bound Water as a Reinforcing Element for Ultra‐Strong Polyacrylamide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rather than acting as a conventional plasticizer, bound water serves as a reinforcing element in polyacrylamide by constructing strong PAM–water–PAM hydrogen‐bond networks. This water‐mediated architecture delivers ultra‐high mechanical strength and exceptional flame resistance, redefining the role of water in polymer reinforcement.

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Paraborg: Paramedic Cyborg Insects for In Situ Emergency Drug‐Delivery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces Paraborg, a human‐supervised paramedic cyborg‐insect platform that combines controllable locomotion, onboard imaging, and an auto‐injection mechanism for in situ drug‐delivery. By demonstrating reliable navigation, target stabilization, injector launch, and multi‐insect teamwork, the study extends cyborg insects from survivor ...

SigmaFormer: Augmenting transformer encoders with COSMO sigma profiles for pure component property prediction

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Transformer‐based molecular models pretrained on SMILES strings demonstrate strong performance in property prediction. However, these model often lack explicit integration of molecular surface charge distributions that govern intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and polarity.

Circular Economy in Food Supply Chains: Comprehending the Paradigm and Redefining Future Research Through a Multidisciplinary Review of Reviews

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inefficiencies of the global food system necessitate a shift towards a circular economy (CE) in food supply chains (FSCs). While research on CE in FSCs spans multiple disciplines, it often remains siloed within respective disciplinary boundaries, limiting its practical impact.

Auto-ignition Temperature Test Device for Crude Oil in In-situ Combustion

Shiyou jixie, 2017
In order to solve the problem that the ignition temperature is too high to cause the deformation of the pipe string in the process of in-situ combustion, a test device for auto-ignition temperature of crude oil has been developed.
