Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A water‐activated phospholipid phase‐separation gel is repurposed as a drug‐free surgical barrier for postoperative adhesion prevention. Propylene glycol promotes rapid lamellar gel reinforcement, prolonged local retention, and tissue coverage, while phosphatidylcholine‐mediated immunomodulation suppresses inflammatory and fibrotic responses. This dual‐

Tribological and Thermal Transport of Ag-Vegetable Nanofluids Prepared by Laser Ablation
Applied Sciences, 2020 Lubricants and fluids are critical for metal-mechanic manufacturing operations as they reduce the friction and wear of tooling and components, and serve as coolants to dissipate the heat generated in these operations.

Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.
