Ultra‐Improved Interfacial Strength Between Metallic Surface and Polyurethane via Cost‐Effective Anodizing Process

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
SAA significantly enhanced Al/PU bonding, increasing SLSS by up to 920% and fracture energy by 15 100% through optimized micro‐nano porous surfaces. RSM identified the optimal anodizing conditions, while ML confirmed sulfuric acid concentration and roughness as dominant predictors of strength.

Unreclaimed mines are key habitats for pioneer specialists: A case study on natterjack toad (Epidalea calamita) microhabitat occupancy

Global Ecology and Conservation
Post-mining areas are populated by many taxa and are particularly important for pioneer species whose primary habitats, such as dynamic floodplains, have largely been degraded. For such species, habitats must be optimally managed beyond the end of mining
