A Natural Lignification Inspired Super‐Hard Wood‐Based Composites with Extreme Resilience
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Super‐hard wood‐based composites (WBC) are designed and developed inspired by the mesoscale homogeneous lignification process intrinsic to tree growth. This innovative hybrid structure is achieved by leveraging the infusion of low‐molecular‐weight phenol formaldehyde resin into the cell walls of thin wood slices, followed by a unique multi‐layer ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.A durable slippery liquid‐infused porous surface (SLIPS) is fabricated on the TiO2 nanotubes. First, TiO2 nanotubes are processed on a Ti via anodic oxidation. The anodized surface is then modified by ethanol, distilled water, trimethoxy(propyl)silane, and Krytox GPL 105 Oil.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The prepared ceramic membrane exhibited 28.84 µm average pore size and hydrophilic properties (≈27.4° contact angle). FTIR shows the presence of aluminol, siloxane, and hydroxyl groups and XRD confirms the presence of quartz and kaolinite phases. Separation of natural organic matter from drinking water is achieved by microfiltration at 0.25 bar and is ...
