Programmable crack dynamics engineering enables flexible strain sensors with high linearity

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
First‐decoupling theoretical framework of crack evolution elucidating the control methods, mechanistic insights, and structure‐activity relationships is established. Crack propagation from uncontrollable randomness systematically evolves into spatially ordered states.

Fabrication of electrospun PVDF nanofibrous membrane for filtration of coconut inflorescence sap

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Electrospinning conditions for polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) nanofibrous membrane were optimized. The polymer solution's properties were analyzed. The developed membranes' average pore size was 478–543 nm. A fabricated membrane was used for the filtration of coconut inflorescence sap.

The Role of Cold Atmospheric Plasma in Surface Modification and Adhesion Behavior of Polypropylene/Flax Biocomposites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effects of plasma surface treatment on adhesive bonding of PP/flax biocomposites. ABSTRACT The emphasis on environmental sustainability has accelerated the adoption of biocomposites as alternatives to synthetic composites. However, their low surface energy may limit adhesion in bonding applications.

Direct evidence for electrostriction‐enhanced piezoelectricity in poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) random copolymers

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Direct experimental evidence for electrostriction‐enhanced piezoelectricity is obtained for a quenched‐stretched‐annealed‐poled P(VDF‐TrFE) 52/48 mol.% random copolymer using time‐resolved small‐angle X‐ray scattering and wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction. Upon stretching up to 6% strain, the crystallinity (xc) increases 10% at the expense of the contents ...

Metal‐Free Submicron‐Hollow‐Fiber Conjugated Polymer Sponges for Efficient Pollutant Removal and Thermal Insulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Mimicking natural tubular structures, metal‐free conjugated hollow fibers are synthesized via one‐pot Chichibabin condensation. Pyridinic networks spontaneously self‐assemble into submicron hollow fibers and entangle into spongy monoliths—without templates, metals, or post‐processing.
