Upcycling of Disposable Face Masks into Water‐Resistant and Flame Retardant Foams

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Disposable mask waste is upcycled into lightweight polypropylene‐based foams with tunable porosity and composite architectures reinforced by ear‐loop fibers. The sustainable solvent‐based process enables upcycling rates of 91% and solvent recovery of >90%.

Mechanically Triggered Chemical Recyclable Polyethylene‐Like Materials

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Polyethylene‐like copolymers with benchmark properties are prepared by embedding latent cyclobutene mechanophores to overcome PE's end‐of‐life limits. The mechanophores are inert in service but are selectively opened by solvent‐free ball milling to yield well‐defined telechelic oligomers.

Integrated Lead/Iodine Management for Sustainable Perovskite Solar Modules

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Perovskite solar modules face environmental risks from lead and iodine leakage. A dual‐function adsorbent—porphyrin‐modified whitlockite nanocomposites—effectively captures iodine and Pb2+, even under severe damage. Combined with a semi‐closed recycling process, it recovers 96.9% high‐purity PbI2 and reduces residual Pb2+ to <10 ppb, offering an ...
