Desert Plant Inspired Hierarchical Nanofibrous Membranes for Integrated Solar Desalination and Heavy Metal Remediation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An Alhagi maurorum inspired hierarchical composite membrane (NFCu) was developed by integrating heavy metal remediation and solar‐driven interfacial evaporation in a single platform. Beyond the photothermal effect, a localized photocatalytic process is realized on the CuO surface, deepening the mechanistic understanding of light–matter–water ...

Multi‐Scale Bionic Structure Constructs Biomass Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulation Foam Material

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by mussel adhesion and hierarchical brick‐and‐mortar architectures, a cellulose‐based biomimetic foam is constructed by anchoring bentonite nanosheets onto a polydopamine‐decorated cellulose nanofiber network. The resulting foam combines low thermal conductivity with intrinsic flame retardancy and full biodegradability, presenting a ...

Are Brazilian bamboo species helpful for cognition and memory?

open access: yesPhytomedicine Plus, 2022
Background: Bamboo species has been used for centuries in Asian traditional medicine to treat mental disorders resulting from the aging process. Brazil has the greatest diversity of bamboos in the Americas, with a high degree of endemism, but just a few of them has been studied for bioprospecting purposes.

Wood Carbon Sponge/SiO2 Aerogel Composites with Anisotropic Broadband Microwave Absorption, Elastic Resilience, and Thermal Insulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Anisotropic wood carbon sponge/SiO2 aerogel composites are constructed, revealing a robust direction‐dependent permittivity ordering (tangential > radial > axial). The radial direction delivers an ultra‐broadband effective absorption bandwidth of 11.6 GHz at only 4.95 mm, while the tangential direction offers superior compressibility and thermal ...
