A structural polymer for highly efficient all-day passive radiative cooling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
There still remains a big challenge in fabricating highly efficient and low-cost radiative coolers for all-day and all-climates. Here, the authors report a hierarchically structured polymethyl methacrylate film with a micropore array combined with random

Radiochemical “degelation” of polymethyl methacrylate networks [PDF]

open access: yesPolymer, 2017
Methyl methacrylate-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate networks were synthetized and submitted to radiochemical degradation, with ageing monitored by means of sol-gel analysis. The networks were shown to undergo chain scission predominantly, which leads to their degelation, i.e., the recovery of a thermoplastic-like behavior with loss of all elastically ...

Multi‐Dielectric Metasurfaces for Ultrabright, Tunable Structural Color and Reconfigurable Optical Filtering with Extraordinarily Large Color Span

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Structural color generation is an emerging field for digital display and printing applications. This report presents a novel truncated‐cone design and the first use of GaP sandwiched between two layers of TiO2, demonstrating ultra‐bright, tunable colors with a record color gamut.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Measurement of Nonplanar Dielectric Samples Using an Open Resonator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Conventional microwave methods for measuring permittivity often utilize samples in flat sheet form. In practice, however, it is sometimes desirable to measure samples having curved surfaces, for example, parts of lenses or small radomes.

Highly Biomimetic Ectodermal Epithelial Organoids for Epithelial Barrier Stimulation Assays

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evaluating the potential toxicity of pharmaceuticals and biomaterials to ectodermal epithelia, such as the oral mucosa and skin, is indispensable in pre‐clinical assessments. However, this remains a challenge primarily owing to the lack of physiologically relevant and accurate screening models.

Impact and fracture resistance of an experimental acrylic polymer with elastomer in different proportions

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2009
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact and fracture resistance of acrylic resins: a heat-polymerized resin, a high-impact resin and an experimental polymethyl methacrylate with elastomer in different proportions (10, 20, 40 and 60%).

Dynamic Covalent Networks of Molecular Clusters for Hard and Impact‐Resistant Glass with Feasible Processability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecular granular material glass is fabricated by crosslinking sub‐nm POSS clusters with dynamic borate ester bonding while the materials combine high transparency, modulus, and hardness with superior impact resistance and (re)processability, offering a promising strategy for creating robust yet highly processable organic glasses.
