Ultrahigh Piezoelectricity in Truss‐Based Ferroelectric Ceramics Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
By leveraging the unique combination of polarization direction and loading state, ultrahigh piezoelectricity is achieved through careful tuning of the relative density and scaling ratio in truss‐based ferroelectric metamaterials. This approach enables the simultaneous realization of extremely high piezoelectric constants and ultralow dielectric ...

Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

Not victims, but fighters: A global overview on women's leadership in anti-mining struggles

open access: yesJournal of Political Ecology, 2023
While it is known that women have a strong presence in struggles for Environmental Justice, there is a lack of knowledge about their role in them, particularly in struggles opposing mining projects. We aim to fill this gap by undertaking the first global

Mining revival [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In relation to its size the United Kingdom (UK) is remarkably well-endowed with mineral resources as a result of its complex geological history. Their extraction and use have played an important role in the development of the UK economy over many years ...

Revealing the Auxetic Behavior of Biomimetic Multimaterial and Region‐Specific Nanofibrous Fascicle‐Inspired Scaffolds via Synchrotron Multiscale Digital Volume Correlation: Innovative Building Blocks for the Enthesis Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Enthesis injuries are a worldwide healthcare problem. Biomimetic electrospun enthesis fascicle‐inspired scaffolds, with and without nano‐mineralization are developed. Human Mesenchymal Stromal cells (hMSCs) express the most balanced enthesis markers on the non‐mineralized scaffolds.

REMOTE SENSING FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND REMEDIATION OF AREAS DEGRADED BY MINING ACTIVITIES IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO: CALL FOR ACTION [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Behavior
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) is a country with strong potential in mineral raw materials; therefore, it is qualified as a “Geological Scandal.” It is the world’s leading producer of cobalt, and in 2022 it will be among the five major ...

Phase‐Stable Palladium Hydride Derived from PdCoO2 for Sustainable Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The exceptionally active β‐PdHx is demonstrated for the hydrogen evolution reaction in acidic media. The fast activation kinetics from the PdCoO2 template are resolved by operando spectroscopy, and isotope‐labeled atom probe tomography quantifies the H content in β‐PdHx. The outstanding stability of the electrocatalyst is attributed to the retention of
