Flax Composites With Improved Interfacial Strength Through Microbially Induced Mineral Precipitation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 56, 8 October 2026.
A bio‐inspired biomineralization strategy introduces an additional hierarchy to flax fiber composites. By controlling microbe‐mediated mineral particle deposition through tuned salt concentrations, stress transfer within the natural fiber composite is enhanced.

Self‐Assembly of Organic–Inorganic Copolymers Toward Bio‐Inspired Cementitious Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 60, 28 October 2026.
Organic–inorganic copolymerization of calcium silicate hydrate and thioctic acid produces a self‐organized nanocomposite inspired by the disordered collagen–mineral architecture of trabecular bone. The resulting material combines a compressive strength above 300 MPa with intrinsic physical reprocessibility, retaining over 80% of its strength and energy

Fire Performance and Flame‐Retardant Behavior of Epoxy Resin Modified With Fly Ash and Aluminum Trihydrate

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Fly ash (FA) and aluminium trihydrate (ATH) were incorporated into epoxy to enhance fire performance. Increasing FA content delayed ignition and reduced heat release, while the FA with ATH combination significantly improved thermal protection, extending the time for coated steel to reach 100°C from 183 to 646 s.

Histology and fossil diagenesis of a pterosaur tooth from the Crato Formation (Lower Cretaceous of Brazil)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2739-2751, October 2026.
Abstract Pterosaur dental biology remains poorly understood despite its importance for comprehending feeding strategies and flight adaptations. Here, we present the first comprehensive histological analysis of an ornithocheiriform pterosaur tooth from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation (Santana Group, Northeast Brazil).

Spectral signatures of tidal forcing: Spatiotemporal patterns of groundwater–surface water exchange in a tidal creek system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Surface water–groundwater (SW–GW) exchange in tidal creeks is governed by a complex interplay of marine, terrestrial, and anthropogenic forcings. Despite this, the spectral signature of tidal controls on SW–GW fluxes and flow directions remains poorly understood, largely due to the lack of methods that resolve both infiltration and ...

Anisotropic Thermal Properties of Electrically Insulating Thin Films and Sheets: A Review

open access: yesSmall Methods, Volume 10, Issue 20, 26 October 2026.
Thermally conducting and electrically insulating materials with anisotropy properties play an integral role in advanced thermal management, in particular for electronic devices. This review discusses recent progress in enhancing thermal conductivity and controlling the thermal anisotropy between in‐plane and cross‐plane (through‐thickness) directions ...
