Solvent‐based recycling is a promising approach for closed‐loop recovery of plastic‐
containing waste. It avoids the energy cost to depolymerize the plastic but still allows to …

When in equilibrium, thermal forces agitate molecules, which then diffuse, collide and bind
to form materials. However, the space of accessible structures in which micron-scale …

Abstract 3D bioprinting of living cellular constructs with heterogeneity in cell types and extra
cellular matrices (ECMs) matching those of biological tissues remains challenging. Here, we …

In this paper, we report the high proton conductivity of a single high-purity Nafion nanofiber
(1.5 S/cm), which is an order of magnitude higher than the bulk Nafion film (∼ 0.1 S/cm). We …

Abstract Development of carbon fibers (CFs) with high strength and high modulus for
structural applications in CF-reinforced polymer (CFRP) industry has been a challenge …

Articular cartilage is a connective load-bearing tissue with a low rate of regeneration due to
slow metabolism. Fabricating tissue-like structure modified based on natural features can …

Fabricating biomaterials that mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) environment of human
tissue with appropriate functional, biomechanical, and biocompatible properties remains a …

Owing to nonlinear viscoelasticity, materials often show characteristic features that resemble
those of thixotropy. This issue has been debated in the literature over the past several …

Gradients in fluid viscosity characterize microbiomes ranging from mucus layers on marine
organisms and human viscera, to biofilms. Although such environments are widely …

Polyphenylenesulfone (PPSU) is widely used as a membrane material for water reuse
applications because of its good chemical resistance, hydrolysis stability and outstanding …
