Improve the Thermal Conductivity, Insulation Performance and Mechanical Properties of Silicone Rubber by Constructing EG‐PDA‐Cu Hybrid Nanoparticles

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a novel expanded graphite‐supported nano‐copper polydopamine composite was designed and synthesized. The procedure involved first modifying EG via a mussel‐inspired technique to deposit a polydopamine coating, after which Cu2+ ions were reduced to immobilize copper nanoparticles onto the EG‐PDA substrate.

Unraveling the effect of topological structures of B/N‐doped conjugated macrocycles on spectral properties: A computational study

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Herein, we constructed a series of fully B‐doped, fully N‐doped and hybrid B/N‐doped conjugated macrocycles considering three key topological factors. At a fixed ring size, the spectra initially redshift then blueshift with varying B/N ratio, while ring size exhibits negligible impact on spectra.

Glove Reuse Limits in Hair Dyeing: Permeation of p‐Phenylenediamine and Aminophenols Through Natural Rubber Latex and Neoprene After Repeated Washing

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Disposable glove reuse reduced chemical protection during repeated hair‐dye exposure. Under ASTM F739 testing, natural‐rubber‐latex deteriorated rapidly after one reuse, whereas neoprene performed better initially but also declined over repeated cycles. Wash type had no significant effect. These findings support single‐use only and discourage the reuse

Contact Sensitisation Trends in Slovenian Children and Adolescents: A Retrospective Single‐Centre Study

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Nickel sensitisation in children decreased significantly over time, while dyes and isothiazolinones are emerging allergens. These findings underscore shifting exposure patterns and the need for continuous surveillance to guide effective patch testing and prevention strategies.
