4D Printing of Composite Thermoplastic Elastomers for Super‐Stretchable Soft Artificial Muscles

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the development of soft, super‐stretchable artificial muscles by 4D printing of composite thermoplastic elastomers. A propylene‐based elastomer, combined with carbon black (CB) nanoparticles, is utilized to develop nanocomposite elastomers with enhanced mechanical properties.

Impact of Fiber Morphology and Content on the Thermal Stability, and Mechanical Performance of Maple Wood Fiber‐Polypropylene Composites

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, natural‐fiber‐reinforced polymers have gained significant attention due to their sustainability and enhanced properties. This study used Canadian maple wood fiber as reinforcement in a polypropylene (PP). Fiber length and fiber content are known as key factors affecting the properties of the composites.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.
