Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The unique brine transportation and salt crystallization behavior, that is, the salt is preferred to be crystallized on the surface of the directional liquid transportation fabric, is discovered and investigated in this work. Abstract Directional and asymmetric liquid transport (DALT) materials are promising for human moisture management and ...

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

Artificial Compound Eye for Clear Vision in Harsh Environment
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Artificial compound eye (CE) with exceptional imaging and motion tracking capturing the movement of a spider and swinging thread with a wide field of view. Surface modifications ensure clear vision of alphabetic letters in rain and fog. Images captured in fog with CE remains visible 3 times longer than simple eyes (SE).
