Strong Lateral Confinement of Hydrophilic Silica Nanoparticles on Mg‐Al Layered Double Hydroxides Nanoflakes for Enhanced Thermal Properties

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A nanostructured, naturally flame‐retardant, and non‐toxic inorganic composite is introduced, which is laterally associated with silica nanoparticles to induce the restacking of the LDH lamella structure, thereby serving as an efficient thermal insulator.

High‐Power Rapid Laser‐Induced Synthesis of Multi‐functional Cobalt Metal‐Organic Framework With an Unprecedented Synthesis Efficiency

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Laser‐assisted synthesis enables rapid (within 1 h) and high‐yield (≥90%) production of Co‐MOFs with mesoporous structures, tunable magnetic and optical properties, and efficient adsorption of N2, CH4, and CO2 for low‐energy gas separation. DFT calculations elucidate the electronic structure and adsorption behavior.

DEF: As a form of sulfate attack

Materiales de Construcción, 1996
Delayed ettringite formation (DEF) is the term used to describe expansion of some heat cured portland cement concretes. Although meaningful progress has been made, the exact mechanism of the expansion itself is not entirely understood. The ettringite reformation is enabled, primarily, by thermal decomposition of ettringite formed prior to or during the

Intramolecular FRET Cascades Enable Small Efficiency Roll‐Off in Solution‐Processed OLEDs

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work highlights how an intramolecular FRET design strategy in solution‐processable MR‐TADF emitters enables narrowband emission, high PLQY, and efficient exciton harvesting. The resulting hyperfluorescent solution‐processed OLEDs reach up to 20.7% EQEmax with minimal efficiency roll‐off even at 10 000 cd m−2, demonstrating strong potential for ...

Resistance to external sulfate attack - Comparison of two alkali-activated binders

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Durability of binders, mortars and concretes in aggressive environments is of crucial importance for their commercial application. In this paper the resistance to external sulfate attack of two different alkaliactivated binders (AABs), based either on ...

Interactions of Antibody Drug Conjugate Anti‐Tubulin and Topoisomerase I Inhibitor Payloads with Radiotherapy to Potentiate Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Antibody drug conjugates deliver their cytotoxic anti‐tubulin or topoisomerase I inhibitor payloads to tumors through cancer cell receptor targeting. The released drug payloads induce cellular changes that interact with radiotherapy resulting in radiosensitization that improves cancer cell kill and stimulates anti‐tumor immune responses.

QBP1 Peptide as a Potential Anti‐Amyloidogenic Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes: An In Vitro Study

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The anti‐amyloidogenic peptide QBP1 effectively halts human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) aggregation, preventing the formation of toxic β‐structured intermediates. Through a combination of biophysical assays, molecular dynamics, and cell‐based studies, QBP1 is shown to preserve β‐cell viability and metabolic homeostasis, positioning it as a ...

The damage evolution law and life prediction of mortar under Freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate corrosion based on entropy weight method

Case Studies in Construction Materials
Freeze-thaw cycles coupled with sulfate attack represent one of the most challenging service environments for concrete. This study aims to enhance the durability of concrete materials in environments characterized by sulfate attack and severe freeze-thaw
