PE‐RT Grades for High‐Temperature Flexible Risers: Comparative Evaluation of Thermal, Mechanical, and Aging Performance

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 7, February 15, 2026.
Flexible riser structure, tie‐molecule arrangement, and XRD comparison of PE100, DOWLEX, and INTREPID polyethylene grades. ABSTRACT This study compares three polyethylene grades—a benchmark PE100 and two high‐temperature resistant polyethylene (PE‐RT) types (Type I and Type II)—to assess their suitability for flexible riser applications.

Microstructural Evolution and Mechanical Performance of Plasma‐Assisted Hybrid Friction Stir Welded Dissimilar Aluminum–Copper Joints

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 3, 4 February 2026.
Plasma‐assisted hybrid friction stir welding of dissimilar AlCu joints employs localized plasma preheating to balance heat input and enhance plastic flow. The optimized process reduces axial force by up to 35%, refines the microstructure, and achieves ≈96% joint efficiency.

Encapsulating Zinc Powder in MXene/Silk Scaffolds with Zincophilic‐Hydrophobic Polymer for Flexible Zinc‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 10, 2 February 2026.
This work develops flexible zinc‐ion batteries (FZIBs) using a zincophilic/hydrophobic polymer (thermoplastic polycarbonate‐based polyurethane, TPCU) to protect Zn powder anodes and MXene/Silk (MXS) as flexible current collectors. The designed TPCU‐ZnP@MXS structure enables uniform Zn deposition, yielding dendrite‐free anodes with stable cycling ...
