Flax Fiber Flyash/Steel Reinforced Sustainable Composites in Corrosive Conditions: Mechanical, Wear, and Corrosion Properties

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Materials used for fabricating sustainable composites. ABSTRACT A composite sample with 18% flax fiber flyash (FF) exhibits increased tensile strength (TS) and greater load‐transfer efficiency of the reinforcement under corrosive conditions.

Defect Passivation via Plasma Modification of Lead Halide Perovskite Thin Films

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that exposure of perovskite thin films to diffuse coplanar surface barrier discharge nitrogen plasma leads to an increase in photoluminescence, attributed to reduced defect densities. This results in implied open‐circuit voltage improvement of up to 80 mV and finalized solar cell open‐circuit gains up to 60 mV.

Cationic‐Hydrophilic Di‐Block Copolymers: Surface‐Shielded Vectors for Gene Delivery

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1419-1432, 15 March 2025.
This study develops synthetic polycationic di‐block carriers for nucleic acid (NA) delivery in gene therapy. Consisting of a cationic block and a hydrophilic block, these carriers efficiently form complexes with NAs and shield them with a protective bioinert layer, enhancing stability during circulation in the bloodstream while reducing undesirable ...

Advancing Sclerotinia risk forecasting for winter rapeseed in Germany: integrating crop phenology and disease development into a decision support system

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrating crop phenology and sclerotia germination models into SkleroPro improved Sclerotinia risk prediction accuracy from 34% to 66%, optimizing fungicide timing and supporting sustainable winter rapeseed production. Abstract BACKGROUND Sclerotinia stem rot, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, threatens winter rapeseed (Brassica napus) production ...

Control System for the Navigation of the Agricultural Robots: A Review

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Control systems for the navigation of autonomous agricultural robots—particularly those operating in uneven terrain and in the presence of static or dynamic obstacles—have advanced considerably in recent years. As conventional machinery evolves toward increasingly automated systems, the design of reliable navigation controllers has become ...

Identification of initial vegetation and habitat changes in small temperate fens using remote sensing

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Temperate fens with only incipient, subtle signs of deterioration can be reliably identified using Sentinel‐2 and aerial imagery, which sensitively detect early productivity‐related structural changes. Abstract Small temperate fens rank among the most endangered habitats in temperate Europe.

Silver‐enhanced Photoresponsive g‐C3N4/Ag Janus Microrobots With Negative Photogravitaxis Efficient Antibiotic Degradation

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water pollution remains a serious global challenge; hence, the efficient, low‐cost, and environmentally friendly removal of pollutants from water has become a research hotspot. Photocatalytic microrobots can achieve autonomous movement and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), presenting a great opportunity for water purification.
