ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Fluoro‐functionalized polyether electrolytes, which combine fluorine‐ and ether‐containing groups, achieve enhanced oxidative stability, high ionic conductivity, and superior interfacial stability. Due to their non‐flammability, remarkable flexibility, ease of processing, and design versatility, polymer‐based electrolytes containing polyethers have ...

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study addresses the influence of fibre architecture on the mechanical properties of vacuum‐infused glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites at elevated temperatures (ET). Laminates with three different fibre configurations—unidirectional (UD), bidirectional 0°/90° cross‐ply (BD), and ±45° off‐axis angle‐ply (OA) – were tested in ...

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene on chromosome 4, leading to progressive cognitive decline, motor impairment, and functional disability. Falls represent the leading cause of nursing home placement in HD.
