Bone‐Inspired Recyclable Composites for Damage‐Tolerant Circular Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐inspired architected composites are developed by combining osteon‐like reinforcements with a recyclable Elium thermoplastic matrix. The hierarchical architecture redirects cracks and promotes energy dissipation, while enabling recovery of intact, aligned, load‐bearing reinforcement units that retain their original stiffness, revealing a route ...

Water Organization and Hydration‐Dependent Hydroxide Transport in Anion Exchange Membranes (AEM)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hydroxide transport in anion exchange membranes is governed by the organization of water within the polymer rather than by hydration alone. A hydration‐window framework is presented to unify transport, swelling, and mechanical stability, providing guidance for designing durable membranes for fuel cells and other hydroxide‐based electrochemical ...

Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Exchange‐Coupled Two‐Dimensional MOFs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene mediates ferromagnetic coupling between two‐dimensional metal‐organic frameworks and cobalt. Fe‐tetracyanobenzene develops a remanent magnetic response whose orientation follows the cobalt magnetization direction and persists up to room temperature, whereas Ni‐TCNB remains only field‐polarized.

Reconstructing Residual‐Solvent‐Involved Li+ Coordination in PVDF‐HFP Polymer Electrolytes for Stable Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2,2,2‐trifluoroethanamide‐mediated coordination regulation reconstructs the local Li+ environment in PVDF‐HFP polymer electrolytes by weakening residual DMF‐dominated coordination and promoting TFSI−‐involved anion‐rich solvation. This strategy facilitates Li+ migration and interfacial desolvation, promotes the formation of a thin inorganic‐rich SEI ...

Programmable Soft Actuator with Multi‐Responsiveness Based on Conductive MOF‐Liquid Crystal Polymer Composite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A sequential dual‐alignment strategy independently programs the orientation of conductive metal‐organic framework (c‐MOF) microrods and liquid crystals within a composite film. This approach creates an asymmetric bilayer structure that enables precise, multi‐responsive actuation.

Modal Analysis of Light Propagation, Polarization and Diffraction by Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Layers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The analysis of optical eigenmodes in chiral liquid crystal with perpendicular or tilted helical axis, and their correspondence with the external medium, leads to an intuitive understanding of the angle and wavelength dependency of transmissive and reflective diffraction.
