Microstructure–Mechanical Response Relationship in Discontinuous Fiber‐Reinforced SMC Composites: Damage Mechanisms

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 11159-11171, 20 June 2026.
Architecture of SMC composites. ABSTRACT The mechanical performance of sheet molding compounds (SMCs) is dependent on microstructural characteristics determined by material composition and processing conditions. The study investigates standard SMCs, advanced SMCs (A‐SMCs), and low‐density SMCs (LD‐SMCs) under quasi‐static and fatigue loading to ...

Beyond Earth: Resilience of Quasi‐2D Perovskite Solar Cells in Space

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 31, 2 June 2026.
In the article (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202520433), Christoph Putz and co‐workers demonstrate rigid quasi‐2D perovskite solar cells operating in low Earth orbit, delivering stable power for more than 100 days under real‐space conditions. In‐orbit performance is correlated with extensive ground‐based thermal and proton‐irradiation studies on rigid and ...

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 11, 9 June 2026.
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Shape‐Memory Collagen/Silk‐Fibroin Scaffold for Dura Sealing and Skull Base Regeneration

Small, Volume 22, Issue 30, 27 May 2026.
ABSTRACT When a skull base defect occurs, reconstruction is typically performed using a variety of autologous grafts, flaps, or synthetic materials. Failure to achieve appropriate management and closure can lead to serious consequences, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage and subsequent meningitis.

Fatigue characteristics of high glass content sheet molding compound (SMC) materials [PDF]

Polymer Composites, 1981
AbstractStatic and fatigue properties of high glass content sheet molding compound (SMC) materials were studied at various temperatures. It was shown that the matrix plays an important role in both fatigue characteristics and failure mechanism of such randomly oriented short fiber composites.
