The Hierarchical Structure of Sheep Wool and Its Impact on Physical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sheep wool, a prevalent α‐keratinous fiber, is an essential model for studying protein‐based fibers. Its genetic diversity across breeds enables the establishment of multiscale structure‐property relationships, uncovering previously elusive insights into wool's hierarchical structure.

Molecularly Tailored Elastomeric Block‐Copolymers for Intrinsically Stretchable Organic Field‐Effect Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular‐level engineering of SEBS elastomers is introduced for skin‐inspired electronics. By systematically modulating the S/EB molar ratio in SEBS, precise control is achieved over nanoscale morphology, mechanical properties, metal‐elastomer adhesion, and dielectric performance.

Enzyme‐Regulated Extended Swelling of Hydrogels for Dehiscence‐Less Tissue Expansions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An interpenetrating hydrogel network with swelling under regulation by enzymatic degradation (INSURED) is fabricated to avoid dehiscence. INSURED remains structurally intact post‐implantation, while HYAL injection enables control over the onset and rate of swelling.

Enhancing Mechanical Deformability of Rigid Conjugated Polymers through Functional Additive‐Induced Persistence Length Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a molecular strategy to enhance the stretchability of conjugated polymers by incorporating plasticizing molecular additives (PMAs). PMAs reduce the persistence length and promote chain entanglement, enabling deformable thin films with preserved electrical performance. A systematic analysis combining rheology, neutron scattering,

Stochastically Generated Digital Twins of 3D Solid‐State Electrolyte Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Digital Twins of random porous tape‐cast solid‐state battery architectures across µm to mm feature sizes from FIB‐SEM to X‐Ray µCT, respectively. Abstract Solid‐state lithium batteries (SSBs) have the potential to overcome conventional Li‐ion batteries in performance and safety.

Supramolecular Liquid Crystal Elastomer Adhesives: Role of Internal Damping and Hydrogen Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The adhesion strength can be significantly enhanced through the molecular design of supramolecular liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) that combine high internal damping from mesogen reorientation with abundant hydrogen‐bonding moieties. Solvent vapor annealing enables reversible, non‐thermal control of adhesion, offering potential for heat‐sensitive ...

Ionic Control of Microstructure and Lubrication in Charged, Physically Cross‐Linked Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, charged, physically cross‐linked poly(methacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) hydrogels stabilized by a short‐range attractive, long‐range repulsive potential is investigated. This work uncovers how salt addition alters not only swelling, but also the microstructure and dynamics, near‐surface stiffness and charge, and ultimately, its lubricity. Salts

SMaRT Stacking: A Methodology to Produce Optimally Layered EMI Shields with Maximal Green Index Using Fused Deposition Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shields consisting of polylactic acid (PLA) in layers with different concentrations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are produced using additive manufacturing. The permittivity function of layers with different filler concentrations is learned using data of homogeneous and randomly ordered shields.
