Transport and sustainability, with special regard to the EU Transport White Paper of 2011
, 2014 The EU transport policy in 2001 took the environmental imperatives seriously and focused on curbing road transport. This brought strong reactions, and the 2006 reappraisal betrayed an intention of allowing that objective to atrophy. By contrast, the new White Paper appears to mark an environmental offensive, with aims of a 60 per cent cut in carbon ...

Bio‐Inspired Synthesis of Macroporous Single Crystal Particles as Scattering Agents
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A general strategy is presented that delivers unique, single‐crystal microparticles that combine submicron macroporosity and uniform particle shapes. A bioinspired approach is used to occlude three distinct types of additives – polystyrene microspheres, polymer vesicles and amino acids – within calcite single crystals, and subsequent thermal annealing ...

Photothermal‐Activated Antibacterial Amyloid‐Polyphenol‐Iron Hydrogels for Synergistic Wound Healing
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.We report a thermally triggered supramolecular hydrogel (LTFe) formed by Fe3+ and tannic acid on lysozyme amyloid fibrils. Fe3+ enables rapid gelation and photothermal transduction with an efficiency of 88.56%. The LTFe hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility, potent antibacterial activity against E. coli and S.
