Combined Effects of Thermal Cycling Aging and Reinforcement Content on the Ball‐On‐Disk Wear of Additively Manufactured Polylactic Acid Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Thermal Aging and Tribological Tests of Additive Manufactured PLA Composites. ABSTRACT This study focuses on the additive manufacturing of pure polylactic acid (PLA) specimens and milled glass fiber (GF)‐filled PLA composites under thermal cycling aging and wear tests. Wear tracks have been analyzed via 3D optical profiling and SEM imaging.

Conjugated Polymers Engineered for Flexible/Stretchable Electronics

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This review highlights glass transition temperature (Tg) as the central parameter linking molecular structure to device performance in conjugated polymers. By tuning backbone rigidity, side‐chain architecture, and dynamic bonding, Tg governs the balance between π–π stacking–enabled charge transport and mechanical compliance.

Building Sulfone Bridges: Multi‐Technique Analysis of Thermally Induced Cross‐Linking in Highly Sulfonated Poly(Phenylsulfone)

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Highly sulfonated poly(phenylsulfone) undergoes controlled thermal cross‐linking through sulfone bridge formation, exploiting the dual role of sulfonic acid groups as both proton‐conducting functionalities and reactive precursors. The resulting fluorine‐free membranes exhibit enhanced hydrolytic, thermal, and mechanical stability while maintaining ...

Sustainable Healthy Diet Transitions: An Examination of Media Discourse Concerning Beef in the United Kingdom From 2018 to 2022

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of diet in individual and planetary health is increasingly scrutinised as consumers are encouraged to make food choices that balance health and sustainability, particularly with beef. While prior research has considered reduction from the perspective of alternate product acceptance, the social context of beef is less understood. Media

The Effect of Alloying Elements and Impurities on the Composition and Formation of Intermetallic Particles in Titanium and Titanium Alloys

open access: yesSurface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The corrosion resistance of alpha and near‐alpha titanium alloys has resulted in their widespread application in extreme environments. Their corrosion behavior is often influenced by their microstructure, particularly intermetallic particles (IMPs), and even slight compositional variations can produce significant differences in microstructure ...

Designing Elastic Softening Under Compression via Dipole–Dipole Interactions: The Case of Na2TiSiO5

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Pressure usually stiffens solids, yet Na2TiSiO5 exhibits anomalous elastic softening under compression. Unlike conventional mechanisms driven by geometric rearrangements or electronic spin‐state transitions, the softening originates from enhanced dipole coupling along head‐to‐tail TiO5 chains.
