Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Over 95% Optical Reflectance From Structurally Modulated All‐Biopolymer Multilayers

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new dense–porous design turns ordinary polysaccharides into highly reflective photonic multilayers. Alternating dense pectin and porous cellulose nanofiber layers create strong refractive‐index contrast without inorganic or synthetic polymers, enabling nearly perfect visible reflection, high near‐infrared reflection, broadband metallic‐like colors ...

Near‐Infrared Imaging of H2O2 in Plants With Nanosensors Under Environmentally Changing Conditions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This paper reports a ratiometric nanosensor enabling robust, multivariate detection of stress signals (H2O2) in plants, with high resistance to light fluctuations and mechanical disturbances. Single‐walled carbon nanotubes serve as the sensor, Egyptian Blue nanosheets serve as a stable reference, and plant autofluorescence serves as a label‐free ...

Binder‐Free Direct Ink Writing of Li6.4La3Zr1.4Ta0.6O12 Garnet Electrolytes for All‐Solid‐State Batteries

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Polymer binders and thick pressed LLZTO pellets limit all‐solid‐state battery integration through grain‐boundary carbon and high ohmic losses. A binder‐free capillary suspension ink is direct‐ink‐written and sintered into 254 μm$\mu{\rm m}$, 95.8%‐dense Ta‐stabilized LLZTO with 17.3 mS cm−1$\text{cm}^{-1}$ bulk conductivity, enabling thinner ...
