Improvement of mechanical properties of biomimetic‐layered Si3N4 ceramics with TiN as the interface layer

International Journal of Ceramic Engineering & Science
In order to synergistically improve the strength and toughness of Si3N4 ceramic. We imitate the structure of shell nacre and use Si3N4 as the matrix layer, TiN is used as the interface layer.

Achieving High‐Instantaneous Pulse Power in Contact‐Separation TENG via Series Capacitive Voltage Control Architecture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional contact‐separation triboelectric nanogenerators generate high voltage but deliver limited power due to premature charge dissipation. Here, a capacitive charge reservoir architecture decouples charge accumulation from discharge triggering, enabling sequential voltage amplification via floating‐layer capacitive coupling.

High-entropy diboride: A novel high-temperature self-lubricating ceramic with enhanced mechanical and tribological properties

Journal of Advanced Ceramics
Ceramic-based lubrication materials are among the best choices for solving high-temperature load-bearing and lubrication problems. However, traditional ceramics achieve self-lubrication by adding lubricating phases, which often leads to significant ...

Diblock Copolymer Nanoparticles Act as Nanoreactors for the Synthesis of Sterically‐Stabilized Inorganic Oxide Particles in Non‐polar Media

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Poly(lauryl methacrylate)‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PLMA‐PHEMA) diblock copolymer nanoparticles prepared in non‐polar media serve as nanoreactors for the in situ synthesis of silica from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). A silica mass loading of 17% as judged by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) produces a highly transparent dispersion, and ...

Transformation of chemical ordering and configuration entropy in quaternary CrxTi0.75Mo0.75V1.5−xAlC2 MAX system

Journal of Advanced Ceramics
Two new quaternary CrxTi0.75Mo0.75V1.5−xAlC2 (x = 1.25 and 1) MAXs and Cr0.75Ti0.75Mo0.75V0.75AlC2 are synthesized via hot pressing. An unprecedented transition in M-site atomic occupancy from out-of-plane order to solid solution is observed along with ...

Characterizing Biopolymer Electrolytes in Zinc–Air Batteries: Challenges, Best Practices, and a Robust Workflow Guiding Future Research Paths

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based gel polymer electrolytes promise sustainable, mechanically adaptable zinc–air batteries, yet their progress is constrained by inconsistent characterization. This review critically links formulation, structure, interfaces, and cell performance, identifies methodological gaps under alkaline operating conditions, and proposes application ...

Adaptive Hydrogenation of Alkynes Using CO as a Molecular Trigger to Selectively Produce Alkanes or Z‐Alkenes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
One catalyst for two products: CO acts as a molecular trigger for adaptive alkyne hydrogenation using supported Pd nanoparticles. The catalyst reversibly switches between the formation of alkanes under H2 and Z‐alkenes under H2/CO for 37 structurally diverse alkynes.

Development of an Inchworm‐Like Dual‐Balloon‐Assisted Colonoscopic Robot Based on a Two‐Segment Extensible Continuum Section

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents an inchworm‐like dual‐balloon‐assisted colonoscopic robot (IDCR) based on a rod‐driven two‐segment continuum section. The IDCR enables the active straightening of the sigmoid colon through an inchworm‐like locomotion strategy, thereby avoiding loop formation.
