Enhanced Performance 3‐D Printed PLA Parts through a Photo‐Initiator Mediated UV‐Curing
This solvent‐free method enhances 3‐D printed PLA parts by incorporating photo‐initiators during fabrication, followed by up to 3 min UV treatment. This process improves PLA's mechanical properties, including a 64% increase in tensile strength, while addressing weak interlayer bonding and outdoor sensitivity.

Potential improvement for elastocaloric performances of shape memory alloys through comparing with natural rubber [PDF]
The elastocaloric (eC) effects of natural rubber (NR) and shape memory alloys (SMAs) are compared and potential improvement for eC performances of SMAs is proposed. Both the plateau and hysteresis of stress-strain curve in NR and SMAs are observed. They are attributed to the similar phase transformation: strain-induced crystallization (SIC) in NR and ...

A Bistable Assistive Device for Wireless Control of a Dysfunctional Bladder Under Minimal Stress
This paper presents a wireless system designed to restore bladder function in patients with an underactive bladder (UAB). The system features a multilayered structure, combining a pre‐shaped restoration layer with a spring‐based actuator. The system delivers 95–100% voiding efficiency within a 10‐s activation while ensuring minimal stress on the ...

Understanding the Strain-Dependent Dielectric Behavior of Carbon Black Reinforced Natural Rubber: An interfacial or bulk phenomenon? [PDF]
Filler-polymer interactions are one of the keys to understanding the physical properties of polymer composites. These interactions give rise to an interface with specific properties that may have a nontrivial effect on the macroscopic properties of composites.

This work demonstrates that wavelength selective reflection of circularly polarized light (CPL) of both handedness (right‐R or left‐L) can be achieved from self‐assembled cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), breaking the inherent limitation of obtaining only L‐CPL reflection.
