A Guideline to Evaluate Sorbent Performance for Atmospheric Water Harvesting

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Reporting guidelines for atmospheric water harvesting sorbents allow benchmarking between research groups across seven key performance indicators (KPIs). Beyond simple equilibrium values (such as capacity or maximum water uptake), these KPIs validate sensitivity, reversibility, regeneration conditions, chemical stability, kinetics, and water quality ...

Assessing the Performance of Biopolymers as Substrates for Flexible Printed Supercapacitors Containing Liquid Electrolytes

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The fossil‐based substrates of a printed supercapacitor containing liquid electrolytes can only be replaced with biopolymers if they have adequate permeabilities. This article studies three biopolymers based on their processability, printability, and barrier properties to find a more sustainable substrate option.

Effective Material Stiffness in Curved Actuators

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A new actuator effective material stiffness measurement method is created. It produces a new metric called shape actuation modulus with the potential to help design actuators. This method shows that the smaller the curvature of hinge‐shaped actuators, the stiffer they are.
