Light‐Weight Sustainable Composite From Virgin and Recycled Polypropylene Blends and Biocarbon for Automotive Part Application

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 45, December 5, 2026.
The circular utilization of automotive recycled polypropylene (rPP) blended with virgin polymer and waste‐derived biocarbon to develop sustainable composite materials. The composites were processed via melt compounding and injection molding. The addition of sustainable biocarbon lowered the coefficient of linear thermal expansion and maleic anhydride ...

Simulation of Locally Varying Residual Strains in 4D Printing

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are a class of materials capable of storing deformation in a programmed shape, which can be recovered when an external trigger, such as temperature, a magnetic field, or similar is applied. In the classical shape memory cycle, programming consists of successive heating, deformation and cooling steps. In combination

Tracing the Untraceable: A Review and Discussion on the Forensic Attribution of 3D‐Printed Firearms

WIREs Forensic Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2026.
3D‐printed firearms are rapidly evolving and challenge traditional forensic identification. This review highlights emerging attribution methods, from deposition striae and base‐plate marks to polymer and GSR residual traces, firing marks, and quantitative imaging, identifying the research needed to support robust forensic attribution interpretation and
