An Elastocaloric Polymer with Ultra‐High Solid‐State Cooling via Defect Engineering
This work reports a defect‐engineering strategy that enables a record‐high adiabatic temperature change of up to 8.14 ± 1.76 °C in elastomers at an elevated temperature above 65 °C. Combined experimental and theoretical efforts reveal that increasing dangling‐chain defects nonmonotonically impacts the elastocaloric cooling performance of polymers due ...

A novel strategy is developed by doping reduced graphene oxide (rGO) into a (HfZrTi)C medium‐entropy ceramic. This induces a hierarchical strain modification mechanism, synergistically inhibiting crack propagation at the microscale and dissipating stress at the mesoscale.

Luminescent Chiral Molecular Glasses by Melt‐Quenching Enantiopure BINAP
Melt‐quenching of enantiopure BINAP yields transparent chiral molecular glasses that retain axial chirality and display blue‐shifted luminescence together with strongly enhanced circularly polarized emission with dissymmetry factors |glum| of ≈10−2.

Chemical Upcycling of Polyphenylene Sulfide at Room Temperature
Poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) is a semi‐crystalline super engineering plastic with exceptional properties. An iron‐photocatalyzed strategy is reported for chemical upcycling of PPS plastics at room temperature using 1,2‐dichloroethane. The method demonstrates remarkable efficiency across diverse PPS resins and post‐consumer composites, even within ...

Engineering Charge Heterogeneity in COF/Graphene Hydrogels for Salt‐Resistant Solar Evaporation
Hetero‐charged COF/graphene hydrogel (HCG‐1) with spatially separated cationic and anionic domains is engineered to achieve salt‐resistant solar evaporation. This unique charge architecture regulates Na⁺ and Cl− distribution, promotes intermediate‐water formation and effectively suppresses salt crystallization, enabling stable solar evaporation in ...
