Quality control methods for thermally modified wood

, 2018
Thermally modified wood (TMW) is currently produced commercially by a range of processes across many countries. A prerequisite of the commercial success is an efficient quality control (QC), and methods with this regard are discussed in this review. When direct measurement of the key attribute of the material is not feasible, QC is based on a suitably ...

Revolutionizing Lithium Metal Anodes With 3D‐Printed Topology‐Optimized Hosts for Enhanced Stability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a topology‐optimized lithium metal anode host fabricated via digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. The reinforced microstructure provides mechanical stability, suppresses dendrite growth, and accommodates volume changes.

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

Thermally modified wood of Acacia melanoxylon preliminary results

, 2022
Due to the urban development and the continuous growth of cities, architects, engineers, and constructors are choosing sustainable materials. Wood is a natural, sustainable, and low-carbon material. However, wood presents some disadvantages (e.g. hygroscopicity and anisotropy), that can be overcome by thermal treatments [1].

Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...

Penetration of Wood Preservatives into Thermally Modified Birch and Pine Wood

Pro Ligno, 2018
The objective of the present study was to investigate the interaction between Cu-containing preservatives and birch (Betula spp.) and pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) wood, modified at a relatively mild temperatures (150 – 180ºC). The disposition of wood to absorb water was evaluated by capillary absorption (CA) tests through the specimens’ tangential and ...

Constraint of Lignin–Carbohydrate Complex Orchestrated on Polyphenol in Oil–Water Interface Targeting Ulcerative Colitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the W1/O/W2 emulsion–based targeted therapy delivery system for ulcerative colitis (UC) utilizing LCC as surfactant for the first time. This multifunctional emulsion offered certain therapeutic advantages for UC, including targeted colonic delivery of active compounds, synergistic modulation of gut microbiota through combined ...
