Active Control of Properties of Fresh and Hardening Concrete
RILEM Technical LettersConcrete mixtures have an optimized mix design in view of attaining desired properties. However, after mixing, during further processing, it is typically not possible to further adjust the performance of the fresh and hardening concrete. A new and emerging approach is to actively control the concrete properties by means of responsive particles or ...

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

Bone‐Inspired Recyclable Composites for Damage‐Tolerant Circular Materials
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bone‐inspired architected composites are developed by combining osteon‐like reinforcements with a recyclable Elium thermoplastic matrix. The hierarchical architecture redirects cracks and promotes energy dissipation, while enabling recovery of intact, aligned, load‐bearing reinforcement units that retain their original stiffness, revealing a route ...
