Self‐Cleaning Sensor Surfaces for Long‐Term Environmental Monitoring
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Long‐term use of unattended outdoor sensors without soiling or biofouling is achieved through generation of a micro‐ and nanorough cuvette surface by combing hydrophobic nanoparticles with fluorinated polymers, crosslinked and surface‐attached through CHic chemistry. The coating demonstrates self‐cleaning behavior and prolonged outdoor stability, which

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron
