Small Structures, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.Revolving chiral patterns are induced by an ultraviolet light beam in frustrated films of photoactive chiral nematics. The uniformity and regularity of the rotation depend on the ratio of the pattern size to the diameter of the light spot. The rotation is interrupted when this ratio reaches about eight.

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 310, Issue 11, November 2025.This study proposes a synthesis route for polyurethanes (PUs) derived from bio‐based polyols. The polyols were obtained through metathesis depolymerization of butadiene rubber using fatty alcohol (a castor oil derivative) as a chain transfer agent to produce hydroxyl‐terminated polybutadiene (HTPB).

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 310, Issue 10, October 2025.This study investigates the mechanical, thermal, and dynamic mechanical properties of an eco‐friendly, green tyre tread compound, focusing on a ternary filler (CB, exfoliated graphite/modified silica) system. These findings establish modified silica as a key enabler in the development of next‐generation green tyres, offering a high‐performance ...

Study on Thermal Degradation Characteristics and Regression Rate Measurement of Paraffin-Based Fuel
Energies, 2015 Paraffin fuel has been found to have a regression rate that is higher than conventional HTPB (hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene) fuel and, thus, presents itself as an ideal energy source for a hybrid rocket engine.

A Structural Integrity Perspective for the Assessment of Ageing in Composite Solid Propellants
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 50, Issue 10, Page 152-158, October 2025.ABSTRACT Composite solid propellants (CSPs) are critical materials in the defence and aerospace industries, known for their complex mechanical behaviour and susceptibility to ageing. This study explores the application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to discriminate the ageing degradation of CSPs based on structural integrity parameters.

Amine‐AlH3 Adducts as Energetic Materials for a New Generation of Solid Fuels
Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 40, July 17, 2025.New amine‐AlH₃ adducts offer a more environmentally friendly, high‐energy alternative to conventional rocket propellants, and exhibit ultra‐fast ignition. They can be synthesized by mechanochemical method under hydrogen pressure starting from aluminum metal directly or by wet chemical processes with AlH3.
