  • Traditional catalytic techniques often encounter obstacles in the search for sustainable solutions for converting CO2 into value-added products because of their high energy consumption and expensive catalysts. Here, we introduce a contact-electro-catalysis approach for CO2 reduction reaction, achieving CO Faradaic efficiency of 96.24%.

  • Polymeric nanofibers are attractive nanomaterials owing to their high surfacearea- to-volume ratio and superior flexibility but designing durable and recyclable polymer nanofibers is challenging. Here, the authors integrate the concept of covalent adaptable networks to produce dynamic covalently crosslinked nanofibers via electrospinning.

  • PHAs are natural biodegradable polyesters synthesized by microorganisms. However, several disadvantages such as their poor mechanical properties and limited functionalities limit their competition with traditional synthetic plastics or their application as ideal biomaterials. To circumvent these drawbacks, PHAs need to be modified to ensure improved performance in specific applications. Well-established modification methods of PHAs are summarized and discussed. The improved properties of PHA that blends with natural raw materials or other biodegradable polymers are summarized. The functionalization of PHAs by block copolymerization and graft copolymerization is described. The expanded utilization of the modified PHAs as (bio)engineering materials is addressed.
