Abstract Engineered cementitious composites (ECC) are ductile cement-based materials developed to overcome the brittleness of conventional concrete by exhibiting strain-hardening behaviour and improved crack control unde...

ABSTRACT Silicon anodes require binders that not only buffer volume changes but also preserve interfacial integrity. However, excessive encapsulation limits ion transport and long–term stability. Here, we develop a lip...

A crucial objective for mitigating the global environmental footprint of the construction sector is the imperative to develop sustainable and ecological concrete alternatives. This investigation presents a novel strategy...

Reinforced concrete (RC) piers have been widely studied and applied in bridge construction practice. To ensure the normal operation of RC piers under corrosive environments and seismic effects, new corrosion-resistant ma...

Flat-band systems have attracted considerable interest in different branches of physics in the past decades, providing a flexible platform for studying fundamental phenomena associated with completely dispersionless band...

Abstract The plastic pollution crisis urges innovative recycling solutions. Promising approaches especially for polyester-containing wastes include enzymatic hydrolysis and microbial upcycling. For efficient enzymatic hy...

In linear optical processes, compact and effective wavefront shaping techniques have been developed with the artificially engineered materials and devices in the past decades. Recently, wavefront shaping of light at newl...

Concepts adapted from radio frequency devices have brought forth subwavelength scale optical nanoantenna, enabling light localization below the diffraction limit. Beyond enhanced light–matter interactions, plasmonic na...

Radiative cooling is a passive cooling strategy that leverages thermal radiation to dissipate heat into a cooler environment, offering an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cooling ...

Abstract Bone fracture healing requires coordinated regulation of osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and immune homeostasis within a dynamically evolving microenvironment. However, current biomaterials rarely integrate these th...

ABSTRACT Fabric‐based wearable electronics are gaining increasing attention owing to their flexibility, breathability, biocompatibility, and seamless integration into clothing. However, most existing studies rely prima...

Lignin, the most abundant aromatic polymer from nature, represents a promising feedstock for sustainable functional materials. Yet its intrinsic structural heterogeneity and broad molecular weight distribution limit its ...

Abstract A promising approach for constructing visible-light-responsive photocatalysts with superior activity is realized through the surface grafting of wide-band-gap semiconductors with earth-abundant elements. Consequ...

The expanding deployment of biodegradable mulch films in global agriculture aims to mitigate persistent plastic pollution, yet the fate of resulting biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) in soil ecosystems remains poorly ch...

The asphalt industry faces growing challenges from stringent greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction mandates and diminishing high-quality virgin material reserves. This review paper positions upcycling as the engineered transfor...

Bladder cancer is a highly malignant tumor with limited treatment options. Although adoptive cell therapy has shown promise in oncology, its efficacy is often constrained by poor intrinsic antitumor activity and a highly...

Abstract The present study describes the eco-friendly synthesis and multifunctional investigation of a Peganum harmala leaf extract–mediated PVA/ZnO@β-CD nanocomposite. The synthesised nanocomposite was characterised ...

Micro-capillaries with an engineered hidden surface were produced via the self-rolling of polymer thin films whose surface was photochemically modified so as to coat it with silver nanoparticles. The polymer films consis...

This study investigates the impact of fiber composition and fabric structure on the liquid absorption and retention performance during pressure of weft-knitted fabrics designed for reusable incontinence products. Twelve ...

The present chapter explores how the distinctive characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), particularly when at different interfaces, account for many novel potential applications in the oil industry. According t...
