Envisioning human–nature relationships in the Wadden: An embodied, arts‐based approach for exploring relational, more‐than‐human futures

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Dominant approaches to imagining futures are often anthropocentric, emphasising socio‐technical change without fully accounting for human–nature relationships. Yet sustainability transformations demand approaches to imagining alternative, desirable futures that centre respectful and reciprocal human–nature relationships and reveal the ...

Behavior of Injection‐Molded Nylon 6 Composites With Virgin and Field‐Exposed Waste‐Recycled Blends

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Recycling field‐exposed Nylon 6 composites for sustainable secondary applications. ABSTRACT Every year, more than 18,600 metric tonnes of glass fiber‐reinforced Nylon 6 composite waste from sucker rod guides used in downhole oil and gas applications are landfilled due to uncertainty about retained performance after prolonged service exposure.

Lichen‐Derived Mineral Residue as a Renewable Particulate Filler in Polylactic Acid Biocomposites: Structure, Melt Rheology, Viscoelastic, and Flexural Behavior

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lichen residue, a renewable mineral‐organic material, was melt compounded with polylactic acid and triacetin in a twin‐screw extruder. ABSTRACT A lichen‐derived natural material, known as “höllük” in southeastern Turkey, is introduced as a renewable filler for polylactic acid (PLA).

Tribological Behavior of Additively Manufactured Dual‐Material Polymer Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Layered architecture, tribological performance, and wear mechanisms of additively manufactured dual‐material hybrid polymer composites. ABSTRACT This study presents a novel material design approach for wear‐resistant sandwich‐structured hybrid composites fabricated using dual‐nozzle fused deposition modeling (FDM). By co‐printing commercially available
