A Natural Lignification Inspired Super‐Hard Wood‐Based Composites with Extreme Resilience

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Super‐hard wood‐based composites (WBC) are designed and developed inspired by the mesoscale homogeneous lignification process intrinsic to tree growth. This innovative hybrid structure is achieved by leveraging the infusion of low‐molecular‐weight phenol formaldehyde resin into the cell walls of thin wood slices, followed by a unique multi‐layer ...

Stress Response of Aspergillus niger Spores to Copper Surfaces and the Implications for Antifungal Surface Functionalization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy

Transition Metal Dichalcogenide‐Based Composites in Powder Bed Additive Manufacturing for Electrochemical Applications—A Review

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The robust electrochemical sustainability of additively manufactured high‐performance nanocomposites is substantially dependent on overcoming material selection, process optimization, operational scalability, and design flexibility challenges. Integrating transition metal dichalcogenides into metal‐matrix composites, laser powder bed fusion directly ...

The evolutionary ecology of symbiont‐conferred resistance to parasitoids in aphids

Insect Science, 2014
Aphids may harbor a wide variety of facultative bacterial endosymbionts. These symbionts are transmitted maternally with high fidelity and they show horizontal transmission as well, albeit at rates too low to enable infectious spread. Such symbionts need

Electrophotographic Powder Application for Surface Functionalization of Polymer Parts with Thin Silver‐Nanoadditivated Bactericidal Layers

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Polyamide 12 powder nanoadditivated with laser‐synthesized silver nanoparticles is deposited and sintered on polymer parts via EPA‐PBF‐LB/P. The thin surface coating (140 µm) inhibits E. coli and S. aureus bacteria growth and significantly increases the UV light absorption, whereas the mechanical and thermal properties remain unchanged due to minimal ...

Dual Charge Transfer Mechanisms in Intimately Bonded S‐scheme Heterojunction Photocatalyst with Expeditious Activity toward Environmental Remediation

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
A novel MBOdCN S‐scheme heterojunction photocatalyst is fabricated using pristine Mg‐Bi2O3 and grayish g‐C3N4, where dynamic dual charge migration paths occur to accelerate exciton dissociation. This composite catalyst realizes high degradation efficiency of up to 99.56% of oxytetracycline (OTC) removal under optimized conditions. The material exhibits
