Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We propose an “amorphous oxygen mechanism (AOM)” for urea electrooxidation on amorphous NiWOx with tunable Ov, which achieves robust UOR activity and stability simultaneously. The “amorphous oxygen” in NiWOx prefers to escape during the UOR, in situ generating and stabilizing Ov, which thermodynamically promotes the reaction.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.HEO‐regulated electronic structure drives nonradical PI activation, promoting ETP‐mediated polymerization of 4CP into high‐molecular‐weight products with enhanced surface enrichment. Concurrent dechlorination occurs via radical coupling and •OHads attack, enabling efficient carbon retention and selective product evolution at the liquid–solid interface.

Thermometric Based‐Microswimmers with Chemical and Optical Engines
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Temperature sensing at small scales is typically performed using passive luminescent particles. Here, an alternative approach is demonstrated by integrating upconversion thermometry into self‐propelled microswimmers powered by chemical fuels or light. This strategy offers a step toward dynamic thermal sensing at the microscale, relevant to both lab‐on ...

Environmental Identification of Novel Enzymes for Polyurethane and Polyamide Degradation
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Heteroatom‐containing plastics such as polyurethanes and nylons are produced at scale yet remain largely unrecycled. Biocatalysts offer a promising route to depolymerization under mild conditions. Here, we present a screening platform for the discovery of novel polyurethane‐ and nylon‐degrading enzymes from environmental samples and demonstrate ...
