Fluorine‐Free Soft Nanocomposites for High‐Speed Liquid Impact Repellence

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fluorine‐free soft nanocomposite coatings are developed using silicone oil‐mediated mechanical‐stiffness control, enabling ‘dry’ liquid‐repellent surfaces that resist high‐speed water jet impacts up to ∼60 m/s. By tuning nanoparticle loading and oil content, the coatings also achieve >90% optical transparency, amphiphobicity with impact resistance to ...

Dual‐Layer Living Hydrogel Enables On‐Demand Delivery of Phages and Probiotics for Synergistic Wound Infection Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐layer living hydrogel, ProΦGel, integrates bacteriophages and probiotics for synergistic wound infection therapy. The outer gelatin‐based matrix releases phages on demand in response to P. aeruginosa infections, while inner alginate beads sustain probiotic delivery.

Resilient Modulus of Recycled Aggregates Obtained by Means of Dynamic Tests in a Triaxial Apparatus

Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012
AbstractThe main objective of this experimental research is to prove the hypothesis of the use of recycled materials (C&D) in building road subbases by means of a comparative study which investigates the resilient behaviour of unbound aggregate blends.The results given by the investigation clearly prove that the blend made of recycled materials has ...
