Sustainable Catalyst‐Free PLG Networks: Recyclability, Biodegradability, and Functional Performance
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A catalyst‐additive free covalent adaptable network is developed from star‐shaped poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) cross‐linked with pyromellitic dianhydride, enabling internal carboxylic acid‐driven transesterification. The resulting biodegradable network exhibits mechanical robustness (Young's modulus ≈1.6 GPa), complete recyclability, rapid biodegradation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Tailored thermo‐mechanical properties of shape memory polymer composites enable large reversible deformation as well as high actuation speed. Moreover, a structural design with curvature in the transverse direction achieves sub‐second actuation on heating and a larger recovery ratio on cooling. Finally, these newly developed smart two‐way actuators can

Phase-Field Model of Freeze Casting
Directional solidification of water-based solutions has emerged as a versatile technique for templating hierarchical porous materials. However, the underlying mechanisms of pattern formation remain incompletely understood. In this work, we present a detailed derivation and analysis of a quantitative phase-field model for simulating this nonequilibrium ...

Freeze Casting of Porous Bioactive Glass and Bioceramics [PDF]
Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2009 Highly porous network structures of hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphates, a bioactive glass as well as their composites have been fabricated using variations of camphene‐, glycerol‐, and ice‐based freeze‐casting techniques. The ball‐milled slurries containing 10%–60% solid loading were cast at ambient temperature, followed by ...
