The decarbonisation of the maritime sector: Horizon 2050
BrodogradnjaThe decarbonisation of the maritime sector is one of the world’s priorities to reduce the volume of polluting emissions. The basis of this decarbonisation is the adaptation of existing ships to emission control regulations by means of transformations ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A scalable one‐step copolymerization strategy is developed to produce low‐cost microporous ion exchange membranes that boost both the efficiency and lifespan of flow batteries. When combined with organic electrolytes in aqueous systems, these membranes enable safe and cheap flow battery energy storage, supporting the widespread integration of renewable

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A nanostructured palladium membrane is developed for high‐temperature hydrogen separation, comprising isolated, thermally‐stable palladium plugs embedded within nanopores of a porous support. The membrane withstands high temperatures (1000 K for 100 h) without structural failure, demonstrating exceptional robustness over conventional metal membranes ...

A Termite‐Inspired Alternative to Cement
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A termite‐inspired composite of clay, cellulose, and lignin forms a dense fibrous network with concrete‐like strength (32 MPa) and superior elasticity, processed at ambient temperature. Abstract Clay combined with organic materials is used by termites as a strong and durable construction material for their mounds with minimal environmental impact. Here,
