Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Circadian‐Inspired Hydrogel Moisture Electricity Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A circadian‐inspired hydrogel moisture‐electric generator enables sustainable electricity generation by autonomously current direction switching between daytime and nighttime. This reversible output is accompanied by inversion of the internal water gradient, which effectively reduce hydrogel fatigue and offers a new strategy for harvesting diurnal ...

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 ...

Long‐Lifespan Polyorganosiloxane‐Based Silicone Evaporator for High‐Efficiency Seawater Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional evaporators suffer from salt crystallization and degradation. We design a white polyorganosiloxane evaporator with a reflector, achieving 4.344 kg m−2 h−1 at 1 sun in 3.5 wt.% NaCl. It shows over 53‑day cycling stability and 197‑day seawater resistance.
