Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study explores the influences of calendering and surface treatment during direct ink writing (DIW) of thermochromic cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) on PET nonwovens. For the PVA‐coated nonwovens, calendering reduces pore size leading to reduced ink absorption and enhanced spreading. The NeverWet‐coated nonwovens improve thermochromic responses by

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A cold wall reactor is developed to coat a SiC fiber tow with BN by low pressure chemical vapor deposition. The precursor gas is triethylamine borane mixed with ammonia. The heating process induces a temperature gradient, with the temperature decreasing from the core to the surface of the multifilament tow.

A Prospect of District Heating and Cooling System
Journal of the Fuel Society of Japan, 1980 Since 1965, district heating and cooling systems have been installed at many places in Japan.The Heat Service Law was enforced in 1972 and the systems are installed at 30 places in 1980. The systems, which form a part of urban and residential policies, are installed to utilize heat energy efficiently, to prevent air pollution and to keep the safety and

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

From Food to Power: Hydrogel Thermoelectrics for Ingestible Electronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We introduce a fully edible thermoelectric–electrochromic platform that harvests heat from food and converts it into a visible color change. N‐type and p‐type hydrogel thermoelectric generators connected in series power anthocyanin‐based electrochromic displays, demonstrating the feasibility of safe, biodegradable, ingestible systems for on‐food ...
