Design of Experiments‐Based Optimization of Recovered Carbon Black–Reinforced Isobutylene–Isoprene Rubber in Comparison With Conventional Carbon Black Systems

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 27, July 15, 2026.
Optimized potential of rCB via DOE: recovered carbon black from end‐of‐life tires was assessed as a full substitute for conventional carbon black in IIR composites. DOE and response surface methodology optimized rCB loading, plasticizer, and sulfur contents. Hardness showed linear trends, while rupture energy was nonlinear.

Connecting tradition and technology: The digitization of the ethnobotanical collection at the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1104-1115, July 2026.
The digitization of RBetno (JBRJ) represents a step forward for biodiversity conservation in Brazil. Aligned with the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (Target 2, 2020–2030), this project documents the use of plants, including traditional knowledge and vernacular names, with a focus on the Atlantic Forest and Amazon.

Influence of Airborne‐Particle Abrasion and Thermal Cycling on Enamel Bond Strength and Roughness of Lithium Disilicate Treated With a Self‐Etching Ceramic Primer

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page 1367-1375, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This in vitro study investigated the effect of a self‐etching ceramic primer (Monobond Etch & Prime [MEP]), with or without aluminum oxide airborne‐particle abrasion, on the surface roughness, and microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of lithium disilicate bonded to enamel, compared with the conventional hydrofluoric acid plus silane (HF

Electron Scattering by Highly Oblique Quasi‐Electrostatic Chorus Waves Under Realistic Magnetospheric Conditions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Using Van Allen Probes data (2013–2015), we report that highly oblique chorus waves frequently occur in low‐density regions where fpe/fce≈3 ${f}_{\text{pe}}/{f}_{\text{ce}}\approx 3$. These waves exhibit an electric‐to‐magnetic energy ratio PE/c2PB>0.5 $\sqrt{{P}_{\mathrm{E}}/{c}^{2}{P}_{\mathrm{B}}} > 0.5$, much higher than the typical <0.1 ${
