AI‐Enhanced Laser Manufacturing: A Social Life Cycle Perspective From the White Goods Industry

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable manufacturing transitions require companies to demonstrate not only environmental and economic benefits, but also measurable advances in corporate social responsibility (CSR). Therefore, we propose using a guideline‐based Social Life Cycle Assessment (S‐LCA) aligned with UNEP (2020) and ISO 14075 (2024) to evaluate the social ...

Tailoring surface structures for enhanced single‐droplet jumping condensation

Droplet, EarlyView.
Hierarchically structured superhydrophobic surfaces enable single‐droplet jumping during condensation, promoting continuous surface refreshment and enhanced heat transfer. By combining micro‐ and nano‐scale textures, the optimized design of micropillars enhances the frequency and efficiency of single‐droplet jumping events.

Achievement of Transition Metal Chalcogenides/Oxides in Hydrogen Production by Seawater Electrolysis

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs)/oxides have shown great application potential in seawater splitting for hydrogen generation due to their adjustable electronic properties, abundant active sites, and excellent catalytic performance. ABSTRACT Under the impetus of global “dual carbon” goals, green hydrogen has become a key component of the future ...

Moisture variability resulting from water repellency in Dutch soils [PDF]

, 1998
The present study suggests that many soils in the Netherlands, in natural as well as in agricultural areas, may be water repellent to some degree, challenging the common perception that soil water repellency is only an interesting aberration.

Dynamic Hydrophobic Liquid Interphase Engineering: A New Paradigm for Advanced Aqueous Zinc Batteries

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Electrode‐philic ether additives spontaneously assemble at the Zn/electrolyte interface to construct a dynamic hydrophobic liquid interphase. This adaptive interfacial layer repels water, suppresses hydrogen evolution and dendrite growth, expands the electrochemical stability window, and enables high‐performance aqueous zinc batteries with long‐term ...

Water repellency under natural conditions in sandy soils of southern Spain

, 2005
The occurrence and consequences of fire-induced water repellency have been studied in several regions of Spain since 1989. The occurrence of water repellency formed under natural conditions, however, has only been described for a few areas in Spain since
