Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades
Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

We elucidate the electrochemical actuation mechanism of 2D material‐based electrodes within a MXene‐centered framework, linking atomic‐scale surface chemistry to macroscopic performance (see schematic). Mechanistically, the reduction of Ti─O─Ti sites in H2SO4 triggers the accumulation of hydrated ions at confined active sites, resulting in anomalous ...

Given that PEEK chest wall implants induce shear force at the soft tissue‐implant interface due to respiratory motion in the early in vivo post‐implantation stage. We confirmed that this mechanical stimulus triggers the PIEZO1/ITGB1/YAP1 signalling axis in L929 and the STAT6/p‐STAT6 pathway in RAW264.7, which in turn mediates adhesion and migration of ...

This review explores emerging 2D materials beyond graphene, including graphdiyne, phosphorene, borophene, siloxene, MBene, antimonene, and germanene for Li/Na–S batteries. It analyzes their roles as sulfur hosts, metallic anode protectors, separators, and electrolyte fillers, emphasizing polysulfide suppression, dendrite inhibition, and interfacial ...

A root‐inspired microneedle array patch uses lattice‐based mechanical interlocking to unite rigid microneedles with a flexible substrate. The interlocked rigid–soft architecture improves interfacial bonding, supports stable adhesion on curved and wet tissues under dynamic motion, and provides a versatile platform for robust biointerfacing and future ...

Disturbed flow promotes the formation of TRIM21‐rich biomolecular droplets, which concentrate TRIM21 and PTPN14 and facilitate their SPRY‐FERM interaction (illustrated by the TRIM21 D355‐PTPN14 R132 salt bridge). This condensate‐driven proximity enables TRIM21 to catalyze K48‐linked polyubiquitination of PTPN14 at lysine 956, leading to proteasome ...

α‐Synuclein Forms Distinct Micelle‐Like Assemblies at Low Ionic Strengths
At high ionic strength, α‐synuclein forms diverse assemblies, including oligomers, fibrils, and condensates. Here, we show that at low ionic strength, α‐synuclein adopts a distinct, low‐abundance assembly state. These assemblies maintain a constant size above a critical concentration and do not coalesce, suggesting a micelle‐like organization ...

An asymmetric sulfonate solvent forms thermally stable interphases and demonstrates non‐flammability, suppressing heat accumulation for safer, high‐performance lithium‐ion batteries. ABSTRACT An asymmetric sulfonate‐based linear solvent, 2,2,2‐trifluoromethyl mesylate (FMS), is designed and used as the primary solvent in liquid electrolytes to enhance ...
