Superior Impact‐Resistant Composite Hydrogels Through an Ionic Coupling Strategy
An ionic coupling strategy is developed to simultaneously reinforce networks and interfaces in composite hydrogels. Sodium citrate acts as a single multifunctional ionic coupler to strengthen the poly(vinyl alcohol) matrix via the Hofmeister effect, reinforce the chitosan–sodium alginate nanofiber network via desolvation and electrostatic crosslinking,

This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Light‐Programmable Interfaces: From Molecular Photoswitching to Adaptive Membrane Separations
This review advances an interface‐centered framework for light‐responsive membranes, linking molecular photoswitches (azobenzene (AZO), spiropyran (SP), diarylethene (DAE), donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASA), photoacid) to integration strategies in polymeric, porous, self‐assembled, and mixed‐matrix systems.

Influence of Carbon Nanoparticles on Electrically Induced Wear of Grease‐Lubricated Steels
When an electric current enters a pair of rubbing surfaces, enormous damage takes place. In this research, how such damage occurs in the presence of protective grease and the mitigation with added carbon nanoparticles, were investigated. It was discovered that those particles regulate transport and interfacial electrical stability of the grease ...
