Multi‐Parametric Fluorescence Spectroscopy for the Detection and Characterization of Plant‐Derived Protein Residues on 316L Stainless Steel

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
UV–vis fluorescence spectroscopy enables sensitive monitoring of plant protein adsorption on AISI 316L stainless steel under food‐processing‐relevant conditions. Spectral deconvolution reveals adsorption‐induced changes associated with protein–surface interactions and conformational alterations, demonstrating the potential of the technique for ...

Development of a Solid‐Liquid Hybrid Electrolyte Composed of LiTa2PO8 and [C2mim][FSA]–Li[FSA] Ionic Liquid for Rechargeable Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
LiTa2PO8 (LTPO) suffers from high interfacial resistance when paired with Li metal due to poor solid‐solid contact. Coating LTPO with an ionic liquid (IL) markedly improves interfacial stability, maintaining favorable resistance up to 2000 cycles. However, contact between IL‐coated LTPO and Li metal induces discoloration of LTPO, which is attributed to

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Wood‐Derived Nanocellulose‐Biocarbon Fresnel‐Zone Plate Lenses for Sub‐THz Frequency Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Wood‐derived nanocellulose and lignin‐based biocarbon were combined to fabricate fully bio‐based Fresnel zone plate (FZP) lenses for sub‐terahertz frequencies. These sustainable FZP lenses exhibit low dielectric loss and high directivity, achieving performance comparable to that of metallic references, and remain functional under environmental stress ...

Ultra‐White Elastomeric Coatings for Daytime Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Passive daytime radiative cooling meets elasticity in a new class of ultra‐white silicone coatings. Combining high solar reflectance with strong sky‐window emission, they hold surfaces below ambient temperature under full sunlight while remaining flexible and stretchable. This combination of cooling performance and mechanical flexibility enables energy‐
