Molecular Design Strategies for High‐Voltage Organic Cathodes

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work proposes molecular engineering strategies for high‐voltage organic cathode materials for Li‐ion batteries: (1) increase Li‐O coordination number (CN), (2) achieve a greater increase in aromaticity upon reduction (∆Aromaticity), and (3) add an electron‐withdrawing group (EWG), through a combined experimental and computational study on reported

Cooling Holes in Polymer Spur Gears: A Critical Analysis of Heat Dissipation Benefits and Mesh Stiffness Penalties

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Cooling holes provide a simple passive cooling strategy for polymer spur gears, reducing maximum operating temperature by up to 9.39% while introducing a measurable gear mesh stiffness penalty. A validated response‐surface model reveals how hole size and location govern this thermal–mechanical trade‐off, enabling design optimization for thermally and ...

Surface Engineering of AgNPs-Decorated Polyetheretherketone

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Metal nanostructure-treated polymers are widely recognized as the key material responsible for a specific antibacterial response in medical-based applications. However, the finding of an optimal bactericidal effect in combination with an acceptable level of cytotoxicity, which is typical for metal nanostructures, prevents their expansion from being ...
