Investigation of Surface Modification of Bagasse Fibers: Performance of Asphalt Binders/Mixtures with Bagasse Fibers

Buildings
The influence of surface modification on the properties of bagasse fibers and asphalt binders/mixtures was investigated. Bagasse fibers were modified by single, binary, and ternary methods with hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and sodium chlorite ...

Improving Welding Behavior of ETPU Bead Foams by Surface Modification with Plasticizers

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Tributyl citrate (TBC) and stearic acid (SA) modify ETPU beads through different diffusion mechanisms. TBC diffuses the bead structure directly after coating, whereas SA remains on the surface until melting and subsequent diffusion during heating. The resulting plasticization improves bead fusion, allowing RF processing at reduced temperature and ...

Microfluidic Capillary Arrays for Pixelated Control of Multimaterial Flows

Small, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed pixellated capillary array maps up to thousands of fluid inputs into arbitrary multimaterial flow cross‐sections. Automated manifold design and laminar scaling are used to amplify printing resolution orders of magnitude, generating microscale fluidic control from printed elements, enabling designed microflows for potential use in ...

Enabling Scalable Nanoscale 3D Printing via Laser‐Driven Termination

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoscale three‐dimensional (3D) printing promises to revolutionize next‐generation devices in optics and electronics, but its widespread adoption is hindered by fundamental challenges in scalability and manufacturing throughput. Meniscus‐guided writing is a promising technology for fabricating 3D nanostructures, yet it suffers from a critical

Engineering Flexible Nanofibrous Hydroxyapatite Scaffolds With Tunable Degradation and Mechanical Properties for Bone Regeneration

Small, EarlyView.
Conventional hydroxyapatite ceramics are brittle and poorly resorbable, limiting their use in bone repair. To overcome these limitations, flexible scaffolds are fabricated using ceramic nanofibers as structural building blocks. Adjusting nanofiber characteristics allows modulating the mechanical properties and degradation, providing a versatile ...

Meniscus‐Guided Soft‐Lithographic Assembly of Grid‐Type Molecular Martensite Films for Single‐Crystal‐Like Actuation

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 74, 14 September 2026.
A meniscus‐guided microtransfer molding strategy enables scalable fabrication of grid‐type molecular martensite films with b‐axis‐correlated preferential texture. Sequential growth across microchannel intersections creates structurally continuous grids and robust thermoelastic actuation (∼11% strain, > 50 cycles, maximum force density: 7.1 × 109 N m−3).

Biphasic Co‐Delivery of Curcumin and 5‐FU using 3D‐Printed Dissolving Microneedles for Skin Cancer Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 35, 18 September 2026.
Using pixel‐aware digital light processing, the authors created high‐resolution, dissolvable microneedles from a PEGDA/VP matrix. These microneedles encapsulate curcumin and 5‐fluorouracil and dissolve in the skin, co‐delivering drugs directly to tumours.
