ABSTRACT The growing impacts of climate change and energy scarcity demand environmentally sustainable refrigeration solutions. This study investigates eco‐friendly refrigerants (R152a, R290 and R600a) and their optimized ternary mixture as alternatives to R134a. Four blend compositions were analysed using experimental testing and REFPROP 10.0 modelling

Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.

Atomically Thin Sieves: Two‐Dimensional Materials for Membrane Separation
Atomically thin membranes derived from 2D materials overcome the inherent selectivity‐permeability trade‐off in conventional separation technologies. This perspective elucidates transport mechanisms for gases, water, and ions, surveys fabrication strategies including top‐down pore engineering and bottom‐up synthesis, highlights recent experimental and ...
