In Situ Synthesized Glycerol‐Releasing Nanocarriers Unlock Superlubricity in Oil‐Based Lubricants

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents an in situ synthesis of glycerol‐based nanocarriers in hydrophobic lubricant oils via inverse miniemulsion polymerization. Encapsulating glycerol within a glycerol‐based polyurethane shell resolves miscibility issues between glycerol and the hydrophobic base oil, yielding novel nanoadditives with tunable glycerol loading.

Casa B (Casa Aitor)

open access: yes, 2016
The houses in this issue propose a variety of ways of relating to the sea and its surroundings. They express a concern about how to respectfully take advantage of the singular quality of the place, how to colonize the space, how to blend the materials with a striking natural context through sophisticating construction methods.

Interfacial Energy and Composition Controlled Self‐Stratification in Polyurethane Coatings

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study elucidates self‐stratification in polyurethane coatings driven by interfacial energies and composition‐dependent phase separation. Using XPS, SIMS, and Raman analyses, we reveal rapid formation of hydrophobic and hydrophilic layers and substrate‐dependent interfacial structures.

Strain‐Induced Density Fluctuations in Glassy Polymers

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Strain deformation induces the density fluctuations in glassy polymers, resulting in shear‐thinning behavior. ABSTRACT Deformation of glassy polymers induces plastic flow as a result of mechanical instability, ultimately leading to cavitation and fracture of the liquid. Thus, understanding the origin of such mechanical instability is crucial.

Revealing Ionic Transfer Kinetics in Poly(3,4‐Ethylenedioxythiophene)/Multi‐Wall Carbon Nanotubes

open access: yesNano Select, EarlyView.
Binder‐free electrodes are critical for advancing supercapacitor performance. Here, the development of carbon nanotubes electrodes by replacing conventional non‐conducting polymer binders by a conducting polymer was evaluated. Advanced gravimetric tools permits a deep investigation of the various mechanisms related to the ionic/solvent transfers ...

The Differential Impact of Emotional Support on Social Problem‐Solving and Mental Health Among Latina Immigrant Survivors of Adverse Childhood Experiences

open access: yesResearch in Nursing &Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are often positively associated with mental health conditions. We examined whether emotional support attenuates the association between ACE clusters and both social problem solving and mental health assessments (depression, anxiety, post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms).

Impact of Electrolyte Temperature on Solution‐Combustion Synthesized NiO/Ni Nanoparticles as Oxygen Evolution Reaction Electrocatalyst

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Electrolyte temperature significantly affects electrocatalyst performance in water splitting reactions. Catalysts synthesized by solution combustion synthesis were evaluated for oxygen evolution activity at different temperatures. Elevated temperatures reduced overpotential and increased current density, reflecting enhanced reaction kinetics and ...

Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...
