Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Mechanoactive Biomaterials for Cell–Matrix Mechanotransduction

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how individual triggers (force, light, or temperature) and combined optothermal or receptor‐targeted actuation induce material responses at the tissue, cellular, and receptor scales. Their spatial (global or focused) and temporal (continuous or cyclic) modulation determines the resulting mechanical output.

Coordination Bridges in Confined‐Water Domains Enable Partially Desolvated Zn2+ Transport in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional polymer layer with amide and imidazolium groups simultaneously suppresses dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution in Zn‐ion batteries. By providing Zn2+ binding sites and forming a confined‐water domain that acts as a coordination bridge, it boosts single‐ion conductivity and stability, enabling 4000 stable cycles in Zn‐I2 full cells ...

Stud shear connectors for composite beams [PDF]

open access: yes
The published results of push tests were analysed statistically in order to determine the main parameters that affect the strength of stud shear connectors. The results of the statistical analysis were used to design a series of seventy-nine push tests.

Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Ionic Liquid (IL) Compatibilization of Macropore‐Infused Nanocomposite Emulsion Thermosets (MINETs) for Structural Ion Transport

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Macropore‐infused nanocomposite emulsion thermosets (MINETs) offer tunable multifunctionality due to their incorporation of structural resin, functional nanoparticles, and working fluid stabilized by surfactant. Here we show that if ionic liquid working fluids are introduced, structural capacitive (conductive particles) or separator (insulating ...
