Porous SiC/NaCl-KCl composite phase change materials with enhanced thermal conductivity via structural inheritance from graphite foam

NaCl-KCl eutectic salts possess high thermal stability, high energy storage density and low cost, representing one of the most promising phase-change thermal storage materials for next-generation concentrated solar power technology. However, its low thermal conductivity and susce...

Multi-objective optimization of TC4/UHMWPE fiber metal laminates for enhanced ballistic performance under fragment impact

This study developed a multi-objective optimization framework for TC4/UHMWPE fiber metal laminates to improve the ballistic limit (V50) and specific energy absorption (SEA) simultaneously. A validated finite element model was first established to predict V50 and SEA and to genera...

Surface-EngineeredMain-Chain Azobenzene-ContainingPolyurethanes: toward Stimuli-Responsive Microstructure and ColorRegulation

Abstract Endowing material surfaces with on-demand, multistimulus responsiveness holds great promise for surface and interface engineering, but remains challenging. Herein, we report a versatile surface-engineering strategy to construct functional surfaces with tailorable microst...
