Effect of Designed 3D Reinforcement in Mitigating Machining Damage on CFRP Plates

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effect of Edge Tufting on Surface Quality, Damage, and Mechanical Performance in CFRP Machining: A Comparative Topographical and Structural Analysis. ABSTRACT Composite materials made of carbon fiber‐reinforced epoxy (CFRP) are widely used in aerospace fields due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio. However, due to low out‐of‐plane resistance, these

Tuning catalytic activity and sensitivity in urease‐based thin film biosensors using conjugated polymers and eugenol/biseugenol

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Hybrid thin films of conjugated polymers and urease modified with eugenol derivatives show that polymer–biomolecule interactions enhance catalytic activity while distinctly modulating electrolyte–insulator–semiconductor sensor sensitivity. Abstract Thin films have emerged as promising platforms for biosensor development due to their versatility and ...

Assessing the evolutionary distinctiveness of a highly threatened plant group: The urgency to preserve a unique lineage of evolution in Brazil

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Brazil's diverse flora is under several threats, with many unique lineages facing extinction, particularly in biodiverse regions like the Cerrado and campo rupestre. This study sheds light on the conservation needs of Cambessedesia (Melastomataceae), an endemic genus with 95% of its species endangered, using an approach to rank and prioritise species ...
