Topological Insulator Layered Bi2Te3 Based 3D‐Printed Nanocarbon Electrode for Rechargeable Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Battery

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, Bi2Te3 is integrated into a 3D‐printed nanocarbon electrode for NH4+ storage. A rocking‐chair battery with CuHCF as the cathode delivers a high energy density of 134.8 Wh kg−1 and a power density of 1800 W kg−1. The design allows easy recovery of carbon additives, promoting sustainability and recyclability in next‐generation aqueous ...

Enhancing Metal‐Support Interactions of Ru Catalysts via Relaxation of Oxygen Vacancies for Hydrogen Production

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Designing stable Ru nanoparticle catalyst remains a critical challenge in electrochemical applications. Here, a strategy is presented to stabilize Ru catalysts by leveraging Ce‐doped ZrO2 supports (ZrCeO2‐x), which enhance catalyst durability and activity through electronic metal‐support interactions and stabilized oxygen vacancies.

Functional Hydrogel for Modulating Lipid Droplets and Neuroinflammation in Head Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
After TBI, elevated cholesterol levels in activated microglia lead to the accumulation of cholesterol esters in lipid droplets, exacerbating neuroinflammation. A β‐cyclodextrin‐conjugated GelMA (βCD‐GelMA) hydrogel is developed to promotes cholesterol efflux and reduces LDL influx, thereby alleviating intracellular cholesterol and lipid droplet buildup.

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Near‐Infrared Emitting Lanthanide Catecholate Giant Single Crystals – Morphology Control and Photon Down‐Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled syntheses of lanthanide coordination polymers based on the dihydroxybenzoquinone (DHBQ) organic linker afforded large single crystals of Ln‐DHBQ CPs (Ln = Yb, Nd). A novel structural variant of Yb‐DHBQ is identified by means of single crystal diffraction analysis.

Tailored Polymer‐Based SEI via iCVD for Stable Zinc Metal Anodes in Aqueous Batteries through Modulation of Hydrophilicity and Elasticity to Inhibit Hydrogen Evolution Reactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A stretchable and superhydrophobic pF1V1 polymer layer is conformally coated on Zn metal via iCVD, forming a water‐repelling interphase that inhibits the hydrogen evolution reaction. This tailored interface maintains excellent electrolyte compatibility while suppressing dendrite growth, thereby enhancing the long‐term electrochemical stability of Zn ...

A Universal Way to Manipulate Droplet via Light‐Fueled Thermocapillary Convection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A non‐contact light‐induced droplet manipulation strategy fueled by mid‐infrared (MIR) light irradiation is introduced. No additional additives and/or complex substrate are required. Here, thermocapillary convection, directly generated by temperature gradient at outer surface of droplet via localized surface heating, plays a key role to propel the ...

Hand Washing

British Journal of Perioperative Nursing (United Kingdom), 2000
What could be more basic than the simple act of washing your hands? Children at junior school are taught to do it. Yet research tends to point to the lack of hand washing as being a major contributor to hospital acquired infection. I have summarised this piece by Elizabeth Pinney which takes us right back to the 18th century - and bang up to date ...

HAWAD: Hand Washing Detection using Wrist Wearable Inertial Sensors

International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems, 2020
Hand hygiene is crucial in preventing the spread of infections and diseases. Lack of hand hygiene is one of the major reasons for healthcare associated infections (HAIs) in hospitals.
