Deformation and Failure Mechanisms of Natural/Waste Rubber Blends Under Mechanical and Thermal Cycles: A Synchrotron In Situ Study. [PDF]
Macromol Rapid CommunThis study explores how ground tire rubber (GTR) enhances strain‐induced crystallization (SIC) in natural rubber (NR) under mechanical and thermal cycles. Using in situ WAXD, it reveals improved reinforcement, delayed failure, and increased thermal resistance while increasing GTR content.

Amphiphilic Poly(γ-glutamic acid) Derivatives for Delivering Doxorubicin in Cancer Cells. [PDF]
Macromol BiosciIn this study, poly(γ‐glutamic acid) was modified via esterification with 4‐phenyl‐butyl bromide to enhance its amphiphilic properties, enabling self‐assembly into nanoparticles (NPs). Further functionalization with hydrophilic groups (MethoxyPEG) and targeting ligands (Folic acid‐PEG) (FA‐PEG) provided NPs that were loaded with DOX and delivered in U ...

3D Micropatterned Traction Force Microscopy: A Technique to Control 3D Cell Shape While Measuring Cell-Substrate Force Transmission. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The function, mechanics, and 3D shape of cells are related to each other. Here, a technique is developed to control 3D cell shape, while measuring the mechanical forces that cells exert on their environment. It is found that breast epithelial cells transition from pushing to pulling on their environment as their volume is increased. Abstract Cell shape
