Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

Anomalous Stiffening of a Conjugated Polymer During Electrochemical Oxidation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The electromechanical response of a thienothiophene‐based conjugated polymer with triethylene glycol side chains is investigated. Electrochemical nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy reveal a modest and reversible increase in elastic modulus at room temperature upon electrochemical oxidation.

Reinforced Concrete‐Inspired Multiscale Hierarchical Metamaterial Composite for Synergistic Enhancement Across Thermal, Electromagnetic, and Mechanical Domains

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A structurally integrated multiscale hierarchical metamaterial composite (MHMC), inspired by the synergistic architecture of reinforced concrete, achieves simultaneous enhancement of thermal, electromagnetic, and mechanical functionalities. By combining a carbon black‐based mechanical metamaterial with a porosity‐graded cellulose acetate aerogel, this ...

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...

Biomimetic Ion‐Orchestrated Hierarchical Armored Hydrogel Coating for Robust and Multifunctional Surface Protection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the skin‐toughening mechanism of marine sponges, an ion‐orchestrated structural engineering strategy is proposed to regulate the surface microstructure of hydrogel coatings, enabling the in situ formation of a robust armor layer that enhances mechanical integrity and provides multifunctional protection by suppressing fouling attachment and ...

Wetting Interactions Between Porous Carbon Hosts and Liquid Sodium‐Potassium Alloys Toward Their Use in Negative Electrodes of Alkali‐Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Porous carbon host materials are investigated for their possible usage in liquid alkali‐metal negative electrodes. X‐ray computed tomography reveals pore‐filling behavior under various conditions: non‐wetting, forced wetting, and spontaneous wetting. The applicability of porous carbon in electrochemical cells is demonstrated at high areal capacities ...
