Strong Lateral Confinement of Hydrophilic Silica Nanoparticles on Mg‐Al Layered Double Hydroxides Nanoflakes for Enhanced Thermal Properties

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A nanostructured, naturally flame‐retardant, and non‐toxic inorganic composite is introduced, which is laterally associated with silica nanoparticles to induce the restacking of the LDH lamella structure, thereby serving as an efficient thermal insulator.

Different reactivity of phosphorylallenes under the action of Brønsted or Lewis acids: a crucial role of involvement of the P=O group in intra- or intermolecular interactions at the formation of cationic intermediates

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2019
3-Methylbuta-1,2-dien-1-ylphosphonic acid derivatives (phosphorylallenes) [X2(O=)P–CR=C=CMe2, X = Cl, OMe, NR2, or SAr] undergo intramolecular cyclization into the corresponding 1,2-oxaphospholium ions in the Brønsted superacid TfOH.

Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Molecular Inks for the Development of Complex 3D In‐Mold Electronics

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Molecular inks (MINKs) enable the fabrication of thermoformed 3D circuits by decoupling the forming and metallization steps. Following thermoforming, intense pulsed‑light or thermal processing converts the patterned MINKs into complex 3D conductive tracks with improved stretchability and electrical performance, advancing low‑cost, high‑performance in ...

Additive Manufacturing of Patient‐Specific Intracranial Aneurysm Cell Culture Models

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Patient‐specific intracranial aneurysm models were fabricated using chocolate moulding, 3D printed water‐soluble cores, and direct resin 3D printing. Moulding PDMS around sacrificial cores made of chocolate or 3D printed water‐soluble resin yielded accurate, expandable, and endothelializable models that outperformed resin‐based approaches.
