Make‐Use‐Remake: Toward Indefinite Low‐Temperature Material Loops
We introduce a regenerable materials platform built from microparticles bound by a temperature‐responsive polymer shell, enabling strong, processable structures from diverse feedstocks. The material is shaped at low temperatures (80°C) using common manufacturing methods and reprocessed repeatedly in the presence of water, demonstrating stable ...

COMPARISON BETWEEN WOOD DRYING DEFECT SCORES: SPECIMEN TESTING X ANALYSIS OF KILN-DRIED BOARDS
It is important to develop drying technologies for Eucalyptus grandis lumber, which is one of the most planted species of this genus in Brazil and plays an important role as raw material for the wood industry.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF WOOD DRYING PROCESS
This work focuses on the development of mathematical models describing moisture movement in wood, when the wood is considered as porous medium. Main moisture transport mechanisms are discussed. It is shown how the wood can be described as a two‐ or three‐phase system.

A regenerated cellulose (RC) hydrogel‐based SERS substrate integrating a Marangoni‐transferred gold nanoparticle self‐assembled monolayer (Au‐SAM) is fabricated. Reswelling‐induced hotspot formation enhances polystyrene micro/nanoplastics (PS MNPs) detection in complex matrices, providing reproducible, high‐throughput SERS signals across diverse ...

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Mathematical modelling of wood drying process
This work discusses issues on the design of finite difference schemes for modelling the moisture movement process in the wood. A new finite difference scheme is proposed. The stability and convergence in the maximum norm are proved.

Domain Engineering and Anisotropic Domain‐Wall Photovoltaic Effects in Ferroelectric SnS
The bulk photovoltaic effect at domain walls in the in‐plane ferroelectric 2D semiconductor SnS is investigated using periodic domain structures. Unlike conventional oxide ferroelectrics, domain walls of SnS do not contribute to photocurrent generation perpendicular to the domain walls.

IDENTIFICATION OF WOOD DESTRUCTION DURING DRYING
The subject of this paper concerns destruction of timber during drying. The main goal is to propose a method of avoiding destruction through a suitable programming of drying processes, controlled with the help of the acoustic emission (AE) method. Three different programs of convective drying of pinewood (Pinus sp.) samples are presented.
