Fine particulate matter damages and value added in the US economy

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance In 1999, the National Research Council published a report calling for the integration of externality costs from air pollution into the national accounts. So far, this call for action has not materialized.

Direct Ink Writing 3D Printing of Recyclable and Thermally Stable Vitrimers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Vitrimers hold great promise in additive manufacturing as defect‐insensitive, repairable, and recyclable feedstocks. A thin‐film additively manufactured process is developed for a high‐performance vitrimer that is difficult to process traditionally.

Photothermomechanically Efficient, Low‐Cost, High‐Cycle‐Life, Hybrid MXene‐Polymer Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The addition of MXenes to elastomer‐plastic‐paper films enables the creation of easily prepared actuators that are scalable for small robotic applications. Known as MXene‐polymer Trilayer Actuators (MPTAs), they bend from UV light. Their usefulness is demonstrated through kirigami‐inspired flower‐shaped art design, parallel manipulator for waveguiding,
