Catalyst Layer Modifications for Enhanced Performance of Fluorine‐Free Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Considerable improvement in the performance of fully‐hydrocarbon‐based fuel cells is necessary to replace and compete with Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances‐containing fuel cells. Herein, a way to enhance the ionic conductivity of the catalyst layer (CL) by incorporating insoluble ionomer particles into the CL is presented.

CAUIM: Amazonian Cassava‐Based Programmable Biocolloid

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Bridging indigenous heritage and computation, this work introduces the usage of cauim, a traditional Amazonian cassava fermented beverage, as a programmable memristive‐like substrate and resistance switching. The material exhibits frequency‐dependent dynamics enabling reconfigurable Boolean logic operations.

Improving Oxygen Barrier Performance of Polylactide Film by Using Bleached and Unbleached Nanocellulose From Grape Pomace

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Bleached and unbleached nanocelluloses were produced from the exhausted grape pomace and applied as coatings on PLA substrates for sustainable food packaging. Unbleached nanocelluloses were more hydrophobic and amorphous than bleached ones. The resulting bio‐based bleached nanocellulose‐coated PLA films showed a 68% reduction in O2 permeability ...
