Exceptionally Water‐Stable Hybrid Metal Halides via Divide‐and‐Conquer Strategy for Anti‐Counterfeiting and X‐Ray Imaging

ABSTRACT The lattice of organic–inorganic hybrid metal halides (OIMHs) is predominated by ionic interactions, which leads to spontaneous hydrolysis and structural collapse in water. Most prevailing stabilization approaches tend to either compromise photophysical performance to so...

Tracing Shale-Gas Migration in Complex Tectonic Settings: Evidence from Carbon-Isotope Fractionation Patterns

Abstract Late-stage tectonic deformation strongly influences shale-gas preservation and redistribution, but conventional methods rarely resolve gas-migration pathways and directions. Here, we test whether the direction of spatial carbon-isotope gradients can indicate the dominant...

Effects of Different Ecological Restoration Treatments on Plant Functional Group Characteristics and Nitrogen and Phosphorus Stoichiometry in Alpine Semi-Humid Sandy Land

Ecological restoration of alpine sandy lands plays an important role in promoting vegetation recovery and enhancing ecosystem functions. However, the response characteristics of plant functional groups and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) dynamics under different restoration treat...

Emergence of five-dimensional Lorentzian spacetime: dimensional isolation and Wick-like rotation under the information-curvature scaling principle

In this paper we take the six-dimensional Riemannian information manifold as the substrate, and treat information as the only source of curvature,to investigate the emergence mechanism of the five-dimensional Lorentzian spacetime under general covariance constraints. The differen...

Factors associated with health-promoting lifestyles among community-dwelling older adults in Zigong, China: a cross-sectional study

[Purpose] The aging population in China faces significant challenges in maintaining health-promoting lifestyles, with disparities between life expectancy and healthy life expectancy. In this study, we aimed to assess health-promoting lifestyles and identify factors associated wit...

Tightly Coupled FeNi Alloy/NiO Interface Derived from an LDH Precursor Promotes Deep Hydrodeoxygenation of p -Cresol

Abstract Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin derivatives is a promising strategy for biomass utilization, but its catalytic performance is often unsatisfactory for non-noble metal catalysts. This hinders the industrialization process of biomass utilization. Herein, we obtained a F...

Mobility Control and Solid–Liquid Interface Interaction Mechanisms of Psyllium Gum-enhanced CO2 Foam

Abstract Efficient mobility control is essential for foam-enhanced CO2 flooding and storage, yet the adsorption of chemicals in reservoirs can cause foam destabilization and mobility-control loss. This study investigates the mobility control and solid–liquid interfacial mechanism...

Conformation-Engineered Silk Fibroin Microspheres: Controllable Fabrication toward Precision Biomedical Platforms

Abstract Polymer microspheres have garnered significant interest in biomedical applications owing to their tunable size, high specific surface area, and high drug-loading capacity. Silk fibroin (SF), a natural protein with excellent biocompatibility, controllable biodegradability...

Sprayable EGCG-Grafted Alginate Hydrogels Embedded with Platelet Exosomes: Functional Synergy of Immunomodulation and Angiogenesis for Accelerating Burn Wound Healing

Abstract Burn wounds were often entrapped in inflammatory cascades and highly vulnerable to bacterial infection. Meanwhile, accumulated necrotic tissue and impaired vessels further aggravated local ischemia, thereby impeding the wound healing process. Herein, a sprayable hydrogel...

Flood damage estimation and disaster perception using multi-source data: a case study of Henan, China

Urban flood is becoming increasingly frequent worldwide, posing a serious threat to life and property. Accurately assessing flood damage is critical for risk management and flood prevention. However, traditional estimation methods are resource-intensive and untimely. Previous stu...

Beyond Direct Two-Electron Oxidation: High-Potential Formaldehyde Oxidation on Palladium Still Generates Hydrogen Atoms

Abstract Electrochemical oxidation is typically regarded as incompatible with hydrogen intermediate formation, particularly at highly positive potentials where surface hydrogen species are expected to be rapidly oxidized. Formaldehyde oxidation reaction (FOR) on palladium represe...

Structure-Guided Upcycling of Polyamide 6 Waste into Ultra-Strong Adhesives

Abstract Upcycling polymer waste, especially polyamide 6 (PA6), remains challenging because it is difficult to simultaneously exploit its intrinsic structural advantages and meet the performance requirements of high-value applications. Herein, we propose a structure-guided upcycl...

ZIF-8-Based Smart-Responsive Nanocomposites for Cutaneous Wound Healing: A Review
