High‐strength composites by thiocracking of high‐polypropylene‐content mixed waste

Polymer International, Volume 75, Issue 10, Page 1004-1010, October 2026.
Mixed plastic waste made up of polystyrene and polypropylene was reacted with elemental sulfur to give high‐strength composites. Abstract Mixed‐material municipal waste poses a persistent end‐of‐life management challenge because the heterogeneous composition limits efficient separation and recycling. After disposal, mixed‐material waste often fragments

Biomass‐Derived Laser‐Induced Graphene: From Precursor Chemistry to Device Integration

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Laser direct writing provides a mask‐free route for converting suitable carbon‐containing precursors into patterned, porous, and conductive laser‐induced graphene (LIG) networks. Although LIG was initially demonstrated mainly using aromatic synthetic polymers, such as polyimide, biomass precursors introduce renewable feedstocks with highly ...

Electrochemical Investigation of Compatibility Between Chloride‐ and Sulfide‐Based Solid Electrolytes Using Four‐Electrode Cells

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2026.
Sulfide | chloride interfacial resistances and their evolution over time are measured using an all‐solid‐state four‐electrode cell. It is demonstrated that the interfacial resistances are governed by ion transport in the interphases formed by interfacial reactions.
