Economy of Touch : Task‐Driven Information Selection in Electrical Impedance Tomography‐based Tactile Robotic Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) tactile skins enable multiplexed measurements that trade sensing speed against information richness. This work introduces an economy‐of‐touch framework that treats tactile sensing as an information‐budgeting problem.

Environmental Identification of Novel Enzymes for Polyurethane and Polyamide Degradation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Heteroatom‐containing plastics such as polyurethanes and nylons are produced at scale yet remain largely unrecycled. Biocatalysts offer a promising route to depolymerization under mild conditions. Here, we present a screening platform for the discovery of novel polyurethane‐ and nylon‐degrading enzymes from environmental samples and demonstrate ...

Separation of Polyamide 66 From Blends With Wool Through Selective Dissolution: Implications of the Presence of Dyes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The study assesses dye impacts on PA66/wool recycling via selective PA66 dissolution in calcium chloride–ethanol–water and water reprecipitation. Acid dyes migrate into solvent, yielding color‐free, melt‐spinnable PA66 and reusable wool. Metal‐complex dyes remain, altering PA66 melt viscosity and requiring extraction or repurposing.

Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics for wearable and implantable sensing and therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics are emerging as versatile platforms for wearable and implantable health monitoring and therapeutic applications. These bioelectronics use organic and inorganic matrices combined with advanced fillers, which feature high conductivity, electrochemical sensitivity, softness, and biocompatibility.

Sustainable two-step polyelectrolyte complex for flame retardant nylon-cotton fabric

open access: yes
Blended nylon-cotton (NYCO) fabric is frequently used due to its unique combination of comfort and strength, but it suffers from high flammability. Flame-retardant NYCO is created by applying a simple two-step process of an eco-friendly, water-based ...
