Deformation Behavior of Optical Ceramic Nanomultilayers: The Role of Aperiodicity

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ceramic nanomultilayers demonstrate optical and mechanical behavior tunability through aperiodicity. Within the studied systems, optically optimized coatings exhibit an average ultraviolet, visible, and near‐infrared spectral transmittance above 90%.

Multimode Adaptive Thermoregulation Enabled by Shape Morphing and Radiative Cooling Porous Polyurethane

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A shape‐morphing, porous polyurethane film combines passive radiative cooling with folding to deliver multilevel heating‐and‐cooling control. High solar reflectance and midinfrared emissivity keep surfaces up to 3.5 °C cooler in direct sunlight, while photothermal triggering folds the film to absorb solar heat.

Development of SiC Nanocomposites Using Direct Ink Writing Process

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, feedstock inks containing polycarbosilane and various concentrations of SiC nanoparticles (SiCnp) are investigated for fabricating ceramic matrix composites using a DIW 3D printing process. Characterization results from physical measurement, microstructure analysis, and thermal and flexural testing suggested that high‐performance CMC samples ...
