Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Procalcitonin is a key biomarker for bacterial infections, but conventional detection methods are often time‐consuming. Here, we present an electrochemical sensor based on highly conductive Ti3C2Tx MXene combined with PEDOT:PSS, enabling direct antibody immobilization, while a bovine serum albumin coating provides antifouling protection.

Polyethylene Terephthalate: Sax Responds
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2010 In his letter Vasami reminds readers that phthalates are not used in the manufacture of PET. Indeed, I emphasized precisely this point in my commentary (Sax 2010), for example, when I stated that “phthalates are not used as substrates or precursors in the manufacture of PET.” Vasami also asserts that “it is not chemically plausible for PET to produce ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.A simple strategy is presented for bonding acrylic PSAs and silicone elastomers by curing surfactant‐doped Ecoflex on oxygen‐plasma‐treated VHB. The interface reaches a maximum strength of 1.6 N/mm (over 20 times that of the control) while retaining material compliance.

Synthesis of statistical PET/PEN random block copolymers and their crystallizability in the bulk and at the surface [PDF]
, 2018 A series of PET/PEN copolyesters were synthesized by molten transesterification. The degree of randomness and the sequence length of the copolymers were determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy, and the changes in the bulk glass transition temperature (TgB ...

Polyethylene Isophthalate Terephthalate Copolymer
Kobunshi Kagaku, 1957 テレフタル酸ジメチル, イソフタル酸ジメチルおよびエチレングリコールよりPbOを触媒として溶融重合によって, 種々の組成のポリエチレンイソフタレートテレフタレート共重合体を合成した。これら共重合体はいずれも良好な曳糸性を有し, 粘度数が大きいものでは冷延伸も容易である。エチレンイソフタレートが20%以下のものは結晶性を有し, 加熱や延伸などによってこれらを結晶化させることが可能である。延伸熱処理糸のX線図によれば, 結晶部分はエチレンテレフタレートのみよりなり, エチレンイソフタレートは非晶部分に存在するものと考えられる。

Micropillar‐Engineered Hybrid Adhesive Patch for Surface‐Conformable and Directional Adhesion
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This work presents a surface‐conformable hybrid adhesive integrating height‐optimized hexagonal micropillars with open‐rectangular cuts. The micropillars enhance rough‐surface contact and microscale crack arrest, while the cuts guide and reverse interfacial cracks for strong and directional adhesion. The multiscale architecture achieves robust pull‐off
