Sea Cucumber‐Inspired Double‐Network Biopolymer Hydrogels for Programmable Soft Machines

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the mutable dermis of sea cucumbers, the collagen‐alginate double‐network elastomeric (CoDE) hydrogel achieves programmable, recoverable, and functional mechanical behavior. The CoDE hydrogel mimics the mutable stiffness of the sea cucumber dermis through a densified collagen cryogel scaffold that is secondarily reinforced by a dissipative,

Nonlinear Ion‐Specific Control of Underwater Adhesion by Bottlebrush Polymer Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The efficiency of underwater adhesion is modulated by ion‐specific effects. Strongly hydrated Na+ remains separated from the mica surface by its hydration shell, preserving access to binding sites, whereas weakly hydrated K+ can partially dehydrate and occupy ditrigonal cavities.

Stretchable h‐BN/TPU Fibers for Passive‐Active Dual‐Mode Thermal Management and Wearable Haptic Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Optimized 30 wt.% h‐BN/TPU fibers create a thermal conductivity of 2.08 W·m−1·K−1 while retaining mechanical compliance (422% elongation at break). Woven fabrics reduce surface temperature by 5.7°C under simulated solar irradiation. Glove integration enables localized fingertip heating at 29.55°C·s−1 with a thermal relaxation time of approximately 20 s.

Coral‐Biomimetic Structured Organic Electro‐Oxidations With Exceptional High‐Current Catalytic Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A strategy for energy‐efficient hydrogen production coupled with biomass valorization via organic electrooxidation reactions is reported. A bio‐inspired multiscale coral‐like heterostructure catalyst delivers record‐breaking OEOR performance enabled by a dual‐copper synergistic Cu+/Cu2+–Ni mechanism, establishing a universal architectural and ...

Interfacial Salt Redistribution Enables Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting in a Biomimetic Multi‐Layer Hygroscopic Membrane

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic multi‐layer hygroscopic membrane redistributes salt toward an air‐accessible nanofiber interface, enabling rapid interfacial deliquescence while a brush‐like hydrogel promotes efficient liquid transport and storage. By decoupling vapor capture from bulk water storage, the membrane achieves fast sorption kinetics and enables rapid‐cycling ...

Porcupine‐Quill‐Inspired Shape‐Morphing Biointerfaces Disassemble Biofilms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A porcupine‐spine‐inspired dynamic offensive bio‐interface is developed for active biofilm disassembly. By coupling electrically driven nano‐dagger penetration with light‐triggered ROS generation, the surface overcomes the passive limitations of conventional mechano‐bactericidal topographies, achieving near‐complete biofilm eradication, strong ...
