This work reviews the methods and mechanisms of synchronous reinforcement and toughening of commonly used thermosets, including the addition of second-phase modifiers such as thermoplastic polymers, block copolymers, liquid crystal polymers, siloxanes, nanoparticles, etc., as well as changing the network structure by introducing hyperbranched polymers, constructing topological network structures, and introducing sacrificial bonds. Finally, the future directions and challenges of high-performance thermosets are summarized and proposed. Overall, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the methods and mechanisms of synchronous reinforcement and toughening of thermosets, providing guidance for their applications in various high-tech, sustainable, and emerging fields.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145123777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A major challenge is how to balance the distinct active site requirements for both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we report a NiFe layered double hydroxide incorporated with molybdenum (Mo) (NFM0.5-H) for the purpose. During the electrochemical process, Mo leaching generates oxygen vacancies, which facilitate the formation of OER active sites and modulate the interfacial microenvironment to enhance HER kinetics. The integration of atomic incorporation and defect engineering significantly accelerates the overall reaction kinetics. NFM0.5-H delivers outstanding performance for overall water splitting (OWS), achieving low HER and OER overpotentials of 40 and 230 mV, respectively, at 10 mA cm-2 in alkaline media. It drives a low cell voltage of 1.51 V (10 mA cm-2) for OWS and maintains long-term stability at 500 mA cm-2 for over 300 hours. Tests in an alkaline anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) further confirm the industrial application potential of NFM0.5-H.

Remarkably, the dibromo-substituted compound Z-BBBA underwent [2+2] cycloaddition reactions through strong aggregation in aqueous solution and solid state under 365 nm ultraviolet irradiation. The reaction mechanism of Z-BBBA was revealed through UV-vis absorption, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), combined with theoretical calculations. Z-BBBA formed antiparallel dimers via dynamic Br-mediated interactions, enabling ideal π-stacking and reversible olefin spacing regulation to satisfy Schmidt geometry under UV light. Mechanical grinding enhanced the reactivity by introducing crystal defects, increasing surface areas, and promoting molecular sliding.

This study introduces the first utilization of polymer blend nanocomposites as templates for isolating nanoparticle monoliths with bimodal porosity. We examined tri-continuous polymer blend nanocomposites of silica nanoparticles (SNPs) in polyethylene (PE), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), and polyethylene oxide (PEO) using three-channel confocal microscopy. This allowed visualization of their morphology and its evolution during quiescent annealing. The analysis extends to co-continuous polymer blend nanocomposites, with or without PEO. Our findings highlight the reinforcing effect of sequentially adding polymer phases in tri-continuous blends. This results in a refined morphology and strengthened three-dimensional particle network, as evidenced by a two-order-of-magnitude increase in the terminal modulus in frequency sweep rheometry. Conversely, co-continuous systems exhibit a significantly weaker particle network with a minimal increase in terminal storage modulus, making them prone to collapse during the polymer template removal. The interplay between domain size, nanoparticle jamming within one phase, and consequent particle network robustness enables the material to withstand deformation during polymer removal, facilitating the isolation of hierarchically structured monoliths. This novel templating method offers a scalable approach to fabricating hierarchically porous materials with potential applications in catalysis, energy storage, and gas separation.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145123813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review outlines how these modes of disorder manifest across key oxide families such as rock salt, spinel, fluorite, and perovskite. We highlight recent advances in spectroscopy, total scattering, and high-resolution microscopy enable multi-scale insight into short- and intermediate-range order. By integrating experimental observations with theoretical modeling of entropy and local energetics, we establish a framework linking structural heterogeneity to emergent properties.

The interfacial structure between nano-ceramic phases and the Al matrix plays a decisive role in determining composite performance, fundamentally governing load transfer, deformation mechanism, and failure fracture. This review systematically examines interfacial structures in nano-ceramic reinforced AMCs, categorizing them into four distinct types: direct-contact interfaces, in situ reaction interfaces, atomic segregation interfaces, and precipitation segregation interfaces. We elucidate the structure-property relationships across multiple scales, from atomic-level bonding mechanisms to nanoscale dislocation interactions and mesoscale deformation behavior. By integrating recent advances in characterization techniques and multiscale modeling, we provide comprehensive insights into interface design strategies for optimizing mechanical performance.

In the past few decades, SHS and SLIPS have made progress in anti/de-icing surfaces. However, their durability has been challenged. In recent years, liquid-like surfaces (LLS) prepared by grafting functional polymers have been proven to significantly improve the durability of anti/de-icing surfaces, thus achieving diverse, large-scale and controllable performances. Herein, we review the wetting mechanism and anti/de-icing mechanism of LLS. Then, the factors influencing the anti/de-icing performance of LLS are introduced, including their grafting density, relative molecular weight, branched structure and end groups. Subsequently, taking polymer brushes, polymer networks, storage-functional polymer networks and brush-like polymer networks as four types, the preparation methods and anti/de-icing performance of LLS are elaborated. In addition, in the case of photothermal anti/de-icing coatings, LLS can endow them with excellent transparency to meet the requirements of special application environments. Finally, the challenges and obstacles of LLS in the anti/de-icing field are discussed, and the great potential of LLS in this field in the future is prospected.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145079195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their practical application is hindered by traditional synthesis methods, which often induce metal aggregation and fail to achieve precise control over carrier structures. Herein, a breakthrough strategy for synthesizing SACs using the dynamic structural transformation of coordination polymers (CPs) is proposed. Solvent H2O drives the transformation of the CP crystal structure from two-dimensional to one-dimensional, simultaneously triggering a drastic morphological evolution from bulk to nanosheets. Through the controlled cleavage of Cu-O coordination bonds and the synchronous reduction of partial Cu coordination centers, SACs are directly anchored on CP-derived carriers via a one-step process. This strategy ingeniously exploits the solvent-responsive structural dynamics of CPs, circumventing the destruction of carrier crystallinity caused by high-temperature treatments, and provides a novel approach for the controllable synthesis of SACs. Moreover, the synthesized SACs demonstrate exceptional ROS-scavenging capabilities, effectively alleviating oxidative stress and accelerating wound healing in diabetic mice.","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145079174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
