Can Elastomers Combine Stiffness, Toughness and Fatigue Resistance?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review studies how the molecular and macroscopic architecture of elastomers influence their mechanical properties including: stiffness, stretchability, toughness, fatigue resistance, and damping behavior. By linking the structure to performance, it proposes design principles for advanced elastomeric systems that combine mechanical properties ...

Regulating Phase Evolution and Crystallization Dynamics Enables Low Open‐Circuit Voltage Deficit in Wide‐Bandgap Cu2ZnSnS4 Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bilayer composition‐modulated sulfurization (BCMS) regulates Cu redistribution in solution‐processed Cu2ZnSnS4, suppressing Cu2SnS3 and favoring the direct transformation pathway, while transforming the crystallization from surface‐dominated growth to a more synchronized process.

Differential Sedimentation and Cryo‐TEM Mapping Resolve Structural Heterogeneity in Conjugated Polymer Nanowires for Programmable Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Density‐driven differential sedimentation fractionates solution‐assembled P3HT nanowires into crystalline and disordered constituents. High‐resolution cryo‐TEM directly visualizes the molecular chain packing within individual nanowires in real space, and recombining the fractions programs the mobility–stretchability trade‐off without chemical ...

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Multi‐Li+ Coordination for Superior Room‐Temperature Ionic Conductivity in PEO Solid Electrolytes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A phosphonate‐functionalized polycarboxylate ether (P‐PCE) is introduced into PEO electrolytes to induce multi‐Li+ ions coordination, which effectively dissociates lithium salts, liberates Li+ from the strong chelation by PEO chains, and promotes fast Li+ hopping between adjacent coordination sites. Simultaneously, this design establishes dynamic, high‐

Interface‐Mediated Catalysis for Improved Hydrogen Storage in Reactive Hydride Composites

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Catalyst–hydride interfaces are engineered in Co@C‐ and Ni@C‐modified 2LiH + MgB2 reactive hydride composites to accelerate hydrogen uptake and release. Multiscale scattering, in‐situ synchrotron radiation powder x‐ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations reveal the structural and electronic origin of the catalytic enhancement ...

Ionic Cocrystal Programming of Spatial Ionic Organization in Carbon Nitrides Enables Highly Efficient H2O2 Photosynthesis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic cocrystal‐programmed ionic organization establishes a general strategy for electrostatic programming in polymeric photocatalysts. ABSTRACT Controlling the spatial organization of ions in polymeric photocatalysts remains a fundamental challenge for optimizing charge transport and catalytic selectivity in solar‐driven hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 ...

1T‐to‐2H Phase Evolution During Epitaxial Growth of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
During MOCVD growth of MoS2 and WSe2, a transient metallic 1T phase emerges in early, edge‐rich, chalcogen‐deficient domains and declines as the films ultimately coalesce as 2H material. Together, experiments and ReaxFF simulations link domain size, edge stoichiometry, and vacancies to this evolution.

Charge‐Reversed Lipid Nanoparticles Enable Encapsulation of Pt2L4 Nanocages for In vivo Anti‐Cancer Treatment

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Charge‐reversed lipid nanoparticles (revLNPs) enable efficient encapsulation and delivery of cationic Pt2L4 nanocages. Encapsulation preserves potent anticancer activity while improving circulation, reducing vascular leakage, and promoting favorable biodistribution in vivo.
