Bio‐Inspired Sclerotization of Lignin: A Robust Adhesive for Photothermal Wood‐Based Panels

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A high‐performance lignin adhesive is engineered via an insect‐inspired sclerotization strategy involving oxidation and hyperbranched polymer grafting, overcoming lignin's adhesion failure, and yielding a wet shear strength of 1.02–1.21 MPa. The adhesive endows wood‐based panels with photothermal functionality; building energy simulations indicate HVAC‐

Assessment of eggs freshness by means of pulsed infrared thermography [PDF]

, 2018
The paper examines the topic of identifying eggs freshness through an original approach based on pulsed thermography. The proposed method relies on a short thermal stimulation performed by means of a xenon flash, which rises up the temperature of the egg

Antiferroelectric Phase Transitions Under Electric Fields: A Review of Physics and Applications

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Field‐induced phase transitions in antiferroelectric materials, driven by electric field, temperature, or stress, enable diverse applications including energy storage, electrocaloric cooling, and negative capacitance. These transitions are regulated through compositional design, strain engineering, heterostructure, and size effect, providing a unified ...

From Thermal Inspection to Updating a Numerical Model of a Race Bicycle: Comparison with Structural Dynamics Approach

Applied Sciences, 2018
Carbon fiber bicycle frames are complex-shaped structures and are prone to delaminations and difficult to inspect. The use of finite element model updating is common in structural dynamics but not so common in active thermography inspection.

Noise Suppression via Gain‐Dispersion‐Managed Nonlinear Amplification in a High‐Power Er‐Fiber Laser

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Gain‐dispersion‐managed nonlinear pre‐amplification simultaneously suppresses phase and intensity noise, enabling scalable high‐power fiber amplification. The system delivers 102.3 W linearly polarized pulses with 1.19 µJ energy at 85.69 MHz and compresses them to 380 fs. Near‐linear power scaling without evident saturation highlights a practical route

PDA‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Polymer–ZrO2 Hybrid Scaffolds Enabling Enhanced Radiopacity, Photothermal Therapy, and Cell Migration Modulation

Small, EarlyView.
A multifunctional 3D‐printed polymer–ZrO2 scaffold is developed to provide intrinsic radiopacity, photothermal responsiveness, and surface bioactivity. Reinforcement with ZrO2 enables real‐time x‐ray visibility and mechanical robustness, while a polydopamine coating facilitates near‐infrared‐triggered drug release and modulates cell migration, thereby ...
