Upcycling Keratin‐Based Textile Waste Into High‐Performance Hybrid Fibers Via Tuning the Interfacial Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Keratin recovered from animal‐hair textile waste is fractionated and blended with cellulose to produce continuously spun hybrid fibers. Selecting the high‐molecular‐weight keratin fraction enables 30 wt.% keratin incorporation while maintaining high strength in dry and wet states.

Biodegradable 3D‐Printable and Coatable Antifouling Composites for Marine Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Marine biofouling damages submerged surfaces and raises greenhouse gas emissions. Biodegradable antifouling biocomposites were developed by hot‐mixing beeswax, Tween 80, and calcium stearate or stearic acid. Adjusting the component ratio enables processing via hot‐pressing, 3D‐printing, or dip‐coating.

Toward Pore‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Materials for Sorption Water Harvesting, Interfacial Evaporation, and Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Water harvesting, radiative cooling, and interfacial solar evaporation are fundamentally governed by coupled heat, mass, and light transport processes. These processes are mediated by pore architecture, including pore size, connectivity, and hierarchical organization.

Atomistic Insights into Gradient Architecture Driven Strengthening in Additively Manufactured Cu–Ni Stepwise Graded Structures

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Atomistic simulations reveal the interlayer mechanics of additively manufactured materials, showing how build direction and layer interfaces govern diffusion, defect evolution, and mechanical strength. Distinct anisotropic behavior arises from interface‐controlled deformation and dislocation activity, establishing critical links between microstructural

Study of hydrogen injection strategy on fuel mixing characteristics of a free-piston engine

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
The formation of the gas mixture in the cylinder has a significant effect on the combustion and emission of the engine. The main difference between a conventional engine and a free piston engine is that the piston movement mode is different. Therefore, a
