Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Adaptively Receding Galerkin Optimal Control for a Nonlinear Boiler‐Turbine Unit

Complexity, 2018
The boiler‐turbine unit is really a complex system in thermal power engineering due to its large‐scale nonlinearity, unmeasured state, unknown disturbances, and constraints imposed on both controls and outputs. To design a controller with appropriate performance in above synthetical cases, this paper intends to propose an adaptively receding Galerkin ...

Metastable Polymers for Circular 3D Printing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
3D‐printed polymers are usually permanent and hard to recycle. Here, metastable polymers are designed to fall apart on demand. A chemical trigger unzips the printed material back into its original building blocks within minutes at room temperature.

Inductively Expandable Supraparticles as Microscopic Force Generators for Remote Mechanical Actuation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the combination of magnetic nanoparticles and functional blowing agents into supraparticles. Upon induction heating, they actuate via rapid gas generation or extensive volume expansion. These supraparticles lift up to 25 000 times their own mass and rapidly open cured epoxy resins, providing a versatile strategy for fast micron ...
