Affordable Biogenic Anti‐Icing Surfaces

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The article explores affordable biogenic coatings that prevent icing by combining coconut shell charcoal with natural hydrophobic agents such as beeswax. It shows how particle size and surface treatment influence water repellence, heat absorption, and self‐cleaning ability.

Morphology vs. Specific Surface Area: Which Plays the Leading Role in Microwave Absorption?

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The role of morphology and specific surface area on microwave absorbing characteristics is systematically evaluated and compared. The matrix effect on microwave absorbing performance is studied using polyacetylurea. Implanted carbon nanotubes by red phosphorus and in situ polymerization of polyindole promoted microwave absorption.

The challenges of measuring plastic pollution

Field Actions Science Reports, 2019
Plastic is a single word for a multifaceted reality, encompassing a wide variety of polymers and additives with different chemical and physical properties. The end products range from single-use plastic bags, food wraps and plastic bottles, to fishing lines, buoys, and synthetic fibres used in the clothing or fishing industries.As the use of plastic is
