Iron(III) ion reinforced P(NiPAAm‐co‐AA) beads as tunable smart organogels

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Macroporous beads of PNiPAAm‐co‐AA copolymers were further crosslinked by iron(III) ions. The resulting beads are mechanically robust and reversibly responsive to a change of solvent from ethanol to ethyl acetate with half‐lives in the range of minutes.

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

AWSD Reactive Burn Model for the HMX‐Based High Explosive LX‐04

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An Arrhenius–Wescott–Stewart–Davis (AWSD) reactive burn model is applied to describe shock initiation and detonation properties of the HMX‐based high explosive LX‐04. The parameters in the model are calibrated to data from multiple sources. The thermodynamic equations of state used in the model are calibrated to a combination of thermochemical

Direct Measurement of Explosive Impulse From Contact to the Ultra‐Near Field

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurement of impulse from explosive charges in contact and ultra‐near‐field regimes remains poorly characterised due to the short duration of loading, high strain rates, and the difficulty of obtaining direct momentum‐based measurements.

Essential oils as bioherbicides: effects of orange and citronella oils on weed germination and early growth

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Essential oils from orange and citronella showed dose‐dependent inhibition of weed germination and early growth, highlighting their potential as bioherbicides and sustainable tools for integrated weed management. Abstract BACKGROUND Increasing selection of herbicide‐resistant weed biotypes has intensified the search for alternatives to the intensive ...
