Inspired by Reinforced‐Concrete Structures: High‐Strength, Stable, Sustainable Reed‐Based Plastics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the structure of reinforced concrete, which develops a composite with high‐strength, stability, fire resistance, and nontoxicity, by using the regular and continuous of reed fiber and thermoset tannin‐based resin. This composite demonstrates potential as a sustainable alternative to conventional petroleum‐derived plastics, with promising ...

A Modern Roman‐Inspired Concrete with Daytime Radiative Cooling Capacity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Coolcrete, inspired by ancient Roman concrete, is a new cementitious material with photonic properties enabling passive daytime radiative cooling. Made from quicklime and zeolites, it reduces cooling energy demand, lowers CO2 emissions, and may eliminate urban heat islands.

Root Meristem Maintenance Mechanisms are Key to Plant Defense Against Nanoplastics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Small nanoplastics can disrupt cell integrity and inhibit cell division in meristem zone of plant root. The plants can counteract the cell damage by upregulating genes associated with root meristem maintenance and increasing auxin accumulation by PIN2 transport inhibition.

Li/Al‐LDH Reinforced Polyacrylamide/Xanthan Gum Semi‐Interpenetrating Network Nano‐Conductive Hydrogels for Stress Sensing and Wearable Device Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PXL hydrogel is prepared by in situ polymerization of acrylamide (AM) between Li/Al‐LDH nanosheets and forming a semi‐interpenetrating network structure with xanthan gum (XG). The in situ polymerization of AM ensures the uniform distribution of Li/Al‐LDH within the hydrogel network.

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...
