Sustainable rubbers and rubber additives [PDF]
ABSTRACTRubber is one of the most versatile materials having myriad of applications—from niche rubber band and eraser to highly engineered spacecraft seal. Of late, the glittering concept of “sustainability” has been able to infiltrate within the domain of elastomer science and technology to a significant extent ‐ in both academia and industry.

Rubber friction on smooth surfaces
We study the sliding friction for viscoelastic solids, e.g., rubber, on hard flat substrate surfaces. We consider first the fluctuating shear stress inside a viscoelastic solid which results from the thermal motion of the atoms or molecules in the solid.

Developing recyclable materials for magnetic robotics that combine rapid response and self‐healing properties is challenging. Hence, this study focuses on the integration of magnetothermal nanoparticles into a dynamic sorbitol‐based vitrimer, a recyclable composite capable of remote actuation and self‐healing by magnetic heating.

Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks
