Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) filaments are fabricated through extrusion with in‐process UV curing, enabling controlled flow alignment and network locking of mesogens. The resulting structure responds to thermal or optical stimuli, inducing molecular reorientation and macroscopic contraction.

Targeting fibrosis in the treatment of lower urinary tract dysfunction
The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.Abstract Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a widely prevalent age‐associated disease that is the main contributor to lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in aging men. Although prostate fibrosis has been recognized as a contributor to BPH pathophysiology, there are not any clinically available therapeutics that target this aspect of disease ...

High Birefringence Fluoro-Terphenyls For Thin-Cell-Gap Lcds
, 2011 Two series of high birefringence fluoro terphenyl compounds are investigated. A binary mixture M1, instead of each individual compound, is found to have predictable properties when mixed with other host mixtures.

Poly‐Ether‐Ether‐Ketone Melt Behavior in Fused Deposit Modeling Printing Moves
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.A thin solidified layer forms at the print bed during FDM of PEEK, reducing the effective shear height and raising the effective shear rate above the nominal value. Surface defects emerge once the effective shear rate exceeds a critical value of approximately 750 s−1.

Acid Resistant and Highly Silver Selective Membranes Based on Charged Nanoporous 2D‐Materials
Small, EarlyView.In this work, new membranes based on charged & nanoporous nanosheets with unprecedented selectivity to silver versus a wide range of other metallic ions are reported. Furthermore, a demonstrated and lead specific intralamellar lead pathway is demonstrated. A potential applicability for ubiquitous silver in WEEE is validated.

Small, EarlyView.Open‐shell quinoids with intrinsic spins are assembled into chiral supramolecular structures via blending with chiral additives. Thermal annealing induces stable co‐crystallization, leading to a 30‐fold amplification of chirality (gabs = 1.23 × 10−2). Significantly, this study represents the first integration of spin‐possessing chiral assemblies into ...
