Stretchable Energy Storage with Eutectic Gallium Indium Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
A highly stretchable liquid metal‐based electrode is developed via a one‐step process, retaining conductivity and capacitance after mechanical deformation up to 900% strain. The stretchable all‐solid‐state device provides a areal energy density of 43 µWh cm⁻2 after 150% strain.

Selective Electrolysis of Water Under Artificial Seawater Conditions Using Transition Metal Borate Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The borate‐based cobalt‐iron catalyst promotes selective oxidation of water rather than chlorine evolution reaction during electrolysis of seawater. When integrated into a zero‐gap electrolyzer prototype, this catalyst supports robust splitting of artificial seawater into oxygen and hydrogen on an extended timescale.

Thinking to circularity in temporary textile architecture: end of life and reuse and re-manufacturing scenarios

open access: yes, 2021
Designing for longevity ensures the long-term durability, utilisation and value of assets. Durable materials and robust construction standards can reduce maintenance costs and extend the economic viability of a building or structure . Thinking to circularity in the built environment means to ensure maximum end-of-life material reuse or recycling by ...
