A Janus‐Like Bio‐Inspired Strategy for 3D‐Printed Bimetallic Metamaterials with Excellent Thermal‐Protection and Load Bearing Capacity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A Janus‐like bio‐inspired strategy is proposed for integrally 3D‐printed bimetallic metamaterials. Inspired by shell bilayers, a heat‐resistant AlSiFeMnNiMg alloy and a SiC‐reinforced AlSi10Mg with different SiC volume fractions are arranged as an architected pair.

Thin Reinforced Sulfonated Poly(phenylene sulfone) Membranes for Durable Water Electrolysis: Suppressed Swelling and Enhanced Stability Over 2000 Hours

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrocarbon membranes have the potential to significantly enhance the efficiency of water electrolyzers. However, their application is often limited by insufficient stability resulting from excessive swelling. This work presents a strategy to achieve efficient, safe and stable operation of a 24 µm thin hydrocarbon membrane by combining a modified ...
