Ultrasound‐Assisted for Super‐Rapid and High‐Efficient Adsorption and Desorption

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Adsorption–desorption technologies face challenges due to slow adsorption and complex regeneration. This study shows that PVDF‐HFP offers exceptional adsorption kinetics and regeneration efficiency under ultrasound, adsorbs Rhodamine B 23,000 times faster than activated carbon, removing 90% of levofloxacin and PFOA in 5 min, and maintains performance ...

Superelastic Fire‐Safe Aerogel with Hierarchical Structures via Dual Templates Aided by Microbubble Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, a dual‐template strategy (ice and bubble template) is used to prepare fire‐safe aerogels with hierarchical structures. When the foam expansion ratio exceeds the jamming transition value in the foam system, the aerogels demonstrate superelasticity and extreme shape adaptability.
