Nutritional, Functional, and Analytical Characterization of Banana Blossom: A Waste Valorization Approach

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Banana blossom (Musa paradisiaca spp.). Segregation of different parts (Pistil, Calyx, Bract, Stem). Nutritional, Functional and Analytical Characterisation. Bract has high carbohydrate, aminoacids and nutrient profile. Stem has high protein and colour stability. Pistil has better flavour binding, lipid interactions and strong cooking stability. Banana

Robust β‐myrcene block copolymer elastomeric vitrimers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Myrcene‐based vitrimeric elastomers were compared: statistical (poly(styrene‐stat‐myrcene‐stat‐AAEMA)] versus ‘hard–soft’ diblock (poly(styrene)‐block‐poly(myrcene‐co‐AAEMA)). The diblock's ability to anchor the glassy poly(styrene) blocks in a self‐assembled microstructure was effective – leading to four times higher tensile stress and ten times ...

A Systematic Comparison of 10 Known Electrolyte Additives for Silicon‐Based Anodes in Lithium‐Ion Batteries in One Setup

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
A comparative screening of 10 literature known electrolyte additives has been conducted in an identical full‐cell setup and with respect to the baseline electrolyte (1.0 M lithium hexafluorophosphate in ethylene carbonate/ethyl methyl carbonate 3:7). This systematic investigation enables direct comparison of the additive effects with focus on a silicon‐

Chiral Morphing of Liquid Crystal Polymer Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.
This paper reviews how macroscopic chirality spontaneously arises from liquid crystal polymer materials. It describes how alignment is utilized to create the mechanical anisotropy, geometric misorientation and asymmetry that leads to chiral shape morphing, how shape selection between helicoids and helices arises, the techniques used to prepare these ...
