Engineering Mechanically Adaptive Nanonetworks for Long‐Life and High‐Capacity Silicon Anode Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silicon anodes, with a theoretical capacity of ~ $\unicode{x0007E}$3860 mAh g−1, offer more than ten times the lithium storage of graphite but suffer from large volume expansion during lithiation, leading to particle fracture, electrical disconnection, and unstable solid–electrolyte interphases (SEIs).

In‐situ asphaltene capture with iron oxide nanoparticles in steam‐assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) for improved recovery and partial upgrading of bitumen

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Key improvements obtained by incorporating nanoparticles into a lab‐scale SAGD process configuration. The bar plots show enhanced oil recovery, reduced viscosity, and increased asphaltene adsorption in nanoparticle‐assisted scenarios compared with conventional SAGD.

Sprayable Polyolefin Sorbents Enabled by Bio‐Solvents for Large‐Scale Oil and Chemical Spill Recovery

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A sprayable POE‐based sorbent formulated with a green solvent blend of α‐pinene, D‐limonene, and p‐cymene enables rapid in situ film formation via solvent evaporation, allowing efficient pollutant capture. The system exhibits high oil uptake (37.3 g g−1) and effectively removes up to 60 mL of VLSFO under simulated marine spill conditions.

An Ocular Surface‐Targeting Nucleic Acid Hydrogel for Efficient Dry Eye Disease Treatment

Exploration, EarlyView.
A self‐assembled nucleic acid hydrogel modified with mucin‐1 (MUC1) aptamer is developed, which can actively target the mucin layer on the ocular surface and significantly extend its retention time after distillation. Inside the hydrogel, therapeutic siRNA is embedded and can effectively silence the inflammation gene expression, subsequently restoring ...

Antibacterial Hydrogel Dressing With Ca2+‐Dependent Hyaluronidase Responsiveness for Accelerating Wound Healing via On‐Demand Release of AIE Photosensitizers

Exploration, EarlyView.
This study innovates a Ca2+‐responsive hydrogel dressing that releases AIE photosensitizers on‐demand. Low Ca2+ enhances bacterial hyaluronidase (HAase) activity, degrading hyaluronic acid dressing to trigger antibacterial ROS release, while high Ca2+ inhibits HAase, preventing overdosing.

The enhancing effects of locust bean gum and xanthan gum on the digestibility of potato starch under thermal treatments

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
The dual‐thermal treatment enhanced the interaction between potato starch and gums, consequently reducing starch digestibility. Abstract Locust bean gum (LBG) and xanthan gum (XG) played regulatory roles in the digestibility of potato starch (PS) during thermal treatments.

Fabrication of a salt‐containing coacervated emulsion: Application in low‐salt mayonnaise with enhanced saltiness perception

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Salt‐containing whey protein‐chitosan coacervates enabled stable emulsions with controlled sodium distribution, thereby enhancing perceived saltiness in low‐salt mayonnaise. Improved microstructure, rheology, and stability promoted sodium release during oral processing, offering an effective strategy for sodium reduction without compromising sensory ...

Chemistry Underlying the Behavior of Food and Agricultural Components During Industrial Manufacturing Processes and Its Implications in Quality Assurance, Food Quality, and Food Safety Management: A Systematic Review

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Industrial manufacturing processes have transformative effects on the components of food matrix. These transformations in food matrix and components have direct implications for quality assurance (QA), food quality (e.g., nutritional profile and texture), and food safety management (e.g., pathogen control and toxin mitigation). ABSTRACT This systematic
