For Better and for Worse? On the Transformation of the Finnish Social Assistance Scheme

open access: yesSocial Work and Society, 2020
The recent reform of Finnish social assistance may be described as, in many ways, going against the European tide toward a welfare service state. The reform involved the transfer of the implementation of social assistance from municipal frontline ...

Reversible Phase Transitions of Anionic and Cationic Surfactant Mixtures Drive Shape Morphing Droplets

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A light‐controlled, reversible phase transition of ionic surfactant assemblies, coupled with dynamic partitioning between bulk phases and interfaces, induces rapid, and order‐of‐magnitude changes in oil–water interfacial tension. Surpassing the capabilities of conventional stimuli‐responsive surfactants, this transient, collaborative mechanism enables ...

High‐Entropy Materials for Water Splitting: An Atomic Nanoengineering Approach to Sustainable Hydrogen Production

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
High‐entropy materials (HEMs), typically composed of five or more principal elements in near‐equimolar ratios, offer significant potential due to their unique properties. This review outlines the emergence and structural evolution of HEMs, followed by an in‐depth discussion of the elemental roles (active sites, promoters, or stabilizers) for water ...
