Polysiloxane‐Based Single‐Ion Conducting Polymer Electrolyte for Sodium Batteries
We report a polysiloxane‐based single‐ion conducting polymer electrolyte for sodium batteries. This polymer electrolyte exhibits high Na+ ion mobility and a wide electrochemical stability window, enabling the long‐term stable cycling of various cathode chemistries – also at room temperature, elevated dis‐/charge rates and active material mass loadings,

Complex hydride anion substitution in argyrodite electrolytes has attracted attention for improving interfacial stability, yet the influence of these anions at Li metal interfaces remains unclear. This work shows that electrochemically formed BH4−‐derived interphases enable stable high‐current full‐cell cycling.

Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

V2CTx MXene as a Sacrificial Promoter for NiFe Catalyst for Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers
These findings demonstrate that V2CTx functions beyond passive conductive support as an active electronic participant whose structural legacy sustains durable performance even after vanadium leaching in Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) Electrolysers. ABSTRACT Nickel‐iron layered double hydroxides (NiFe‐LDH) show excellent activity, their poor conductivity
