Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

A bioinspired TENG features a homologously paired interface with matched modulus. Ultrasonic cavitation enhances its toughness to 190 N m−1 (3.2× higher), preventing delamination under 400% strain. Abstract With the growing demand for flexible self‐powered energy sources for wearable bioelectronics, triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) have emerged as a ...

An Elastocaloric Polymer with Ultra‐High Solid‐State Cooling via Defect Engineering
This work reports a defect‐engineering strategy that enables a record‐high adiabatic temperature change of up to 8.14 ± 1.76 °C in elastomers at an elevated temperature above 65 °C. Combined experimental and theoretical efforts reveal that increasing dangling‐chain defects nonmonotonically impacts the elastocaloric cooling performance of polymers due ...
