Thermal Cyclotrimerization Bridges Polymer‐Filler Interfaces for High‐Performance CO2 Separation Membranes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Thermal cyclotrimerization of nitriles converts interfacial discontinuity in MAF‐stu‐1/PIM‐1 MMMs into a continuity‐enhanced junction. Triazine–Zn2+ coordination between TR‐PIM chains and MAF‐stu‐1, together with hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking, lowers interfacial tension and builds selective CO2 pathways, enabling > 10 000 barrer CO2 permeability ...

Urban Living Labs as Inter- and Transdisciplinary Arenas for Sustainability Planning Research

Nordic Journal of Urban Studies
The transition towards sustainable societies necessitates inter- and transdisciplinary knowledge, particularly in urban planning, where diverse knowledge traditions are crucial for decision-making. Despite this, planning practices often remain entrenched

Magneto‐X Effects in Magnetic Soft Materials and Their Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically explores magnetic soft materials (MSMs), a novel class of composites that transform under magnetic fields. It catalogs fundamental “Magneto‐X” effects, classifies materials by their matrix and magnetic fillers, and highlights transformative applications in soft robotics, biomedical devices, flexible electronics, etc. Finally,

Understanding the Interplay Between Thermal Activation, Diffusion, and Phase Segregation of Molecular Dopants Blended with Polymeric Semiconductors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The use of air stable but thermally labile molecules provides an efficient strategy for the N‐type doping of organic semiconductors with relatively low electron affinities. Design criteria for efficient dopants should also take into account diffusion and phase segregation that cannot be decoupled from thermally activated doping.
