Wetting‐Driven Transfer of Flexible Ultra‐Thin Temperature Sensors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A wetting‐driven transfer approach enables ultra‐thin temperature sensors to be transferred from a super‐hydrophilic donor substrate onto rigid, curved, and biological receiver substrates. By combining controlled wetting with a conformal Parylene carrier layer, the method preserves stable thermal sensing performance while expanding the integration of ...

Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

Sonocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction for syngas production over surface‐roughened CuxO catalyst

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition to a carbon‐circular economy requires efficient technologies for converting CO2 into value‐added chemical feedstocks. Sonocatalytic CO2 conversion has recently emerged as a compelling approach to drive this conversion. Here, we report a surface‐roughened CuxO catalyst for sonocatalytic CO2 reduction in aqueous media, achieving a

Overcoming limitations in polyolefins upcycling by codesigning endothermic-exothermic magnetocatalytic system

Nano Research Energy
In the quest for low-temperature polyolefins upcycling, overcoming the decomposition temperature limitations caused by chemically inert carbon-hydrogen (C(sp3)–H) bonds remains a challenge. Here we report a tandem endothermic-exothermic magnetocatalytic (
