Phase change materials (PCMs) show promise for thermal energy storage (TES) owing to their substantial latent heat during phase transition. However, the power density and overall storage efficiency are constrained by low thermal conductivity, leakage issues and phase instability of most viable PCMs. While extensive research focuses on enhancing heat capacity, cooling power, and system integration, many innovative PCMs, including porous, silica-based, metal organic framework based PCM, photo switchable PCM, magnetically multifunctional PCM remain, bio-inspired materials, 3D printed PCM and flexible PCMs remain underexplored. This necessitates a comprehensive review to project the innovative role of PCM based on existing knowledge, identified gaps, and chart a roadmap for future research directions. This review highlights the potential of these advanced PCMs, emphasizing their application in spacecraft, photonics, paint emulsions, biomedical fields, cotton fabrics, smart packaging, and solar energy systems, while also identifying gaps and suggesting future research directions. Advanced functional PCMs are expected to efficiently facilitate thermal regulation and thermal energy storage, subsequently contributing towards sustainable energy utilization.

Hydrogels are soft and wet materials with a three-dimensional porous network structure, capable of swelling to retain a large volume of water and maintaining semi-solid integrity. In general, their diverse structures are mainly determined by the type of polymer matrix, the method and degree of crosslinking, and the three-dimensional structure. However, all different hydrogels share water as their core theme. The water content and organization, both at the surface and within the hydrogels, are crucial factors influencing their many physical properties. Over the past years, their formulations and applications have made transformative advances. But the construction of novel hydrogel systems requires understanding how water molecules or solutes interact with the hydrogel. Herein, this review reexamines hydrogels from the perspective of water and summarizes the states, distribution, and behavior of water within hydrogels, as well as the hydrogel properties imparted by water. We also enumerate the techniques for detecting water in hydrogels and discuss the latest progress in the regulation and design of water-hydrogel systems and their unique role in key applications. Thus, the role of water within hydrogels extends far beyond merely acting as a solvent; it is one of the key factors bridging the structure–function relationship in hydrogels.

The worldwide request for clean water and renewable energy is growing rapidly due to the rising population, changing ways of life, expanding economies, and increased utilization of natural resources. One way researchers from multiple disciplines are striving to meet these demands is to develop a direct solar steam generation (DSSG) system providing steam interrelated with the water-energy conversion process. To maximize steam generation, various systems have been developed based on the water supply path and efficient photothermal conversion structures. However, evaporative systems are vulnerable to salt generation and antifouling/antimicrobial problems, which can cause irreparable damage. To overcome these problems, recent research has been focused on thermo-responsive shape-morphing hydrogel-based DSSG systems. Although reversible actuators and materials for biomedical, soft robotics, tissue engineering, and other applications have been discussed in several reviews, no comprehensive insight has been provided on thermo-responsive actuators for DSSG. The aim of this review is to address these points while providing a comprehensive insight into thermo-responsive actuators. This is achieved by covering new and existing design and modeling strategies for hydrogel actuators with shape-morphing properties, including material modeling and numerical analysis, along with uncovering their working mechanism and production through 4D printing and evaporation dynamics.

Tumor metastasis, responsible for the majority of cancer-related mortality, represents a critical challenge to effective treatment. Despite the deployment of various therapeutic strategies, difficulties remain due to tumor heterogeneity and the complexity of the biological microenvironment. Functional nanomaterials possess unique acoustic, optical, electromagnetic, and thermal properties, playing critical tools in the treatment of tumors and holding substantial potential for improving therapeutic outcomes. However, prior to clinical implementation, critical factors such as dispersion, targeting, immunogenicity, in vivo biodistribution, and biosafety must be thoroughly evaluated. In this review, we focus on the recent advancements in the use of bioengineered nanomaterials for treating tumor metastasis. We emphasize the design, composition, and construction methods of these nanomaterials, along with their mechanisms of action and notable breakthroughs in anti-metastasis therapy. Furthermore, we outline early detection techniques for tumor metastasis. By elucidating the significant potential of these nanomaterials, the associated challenges and prospects for clinical translation are discussed as well, with the aim of encouraging high-quality research and promoting the potential clinical applications of bioengineered nanomaterials in the fight against tumor metastasis.

Clean energy, water, and air are all critical to the sustainable development of humanity. Electrospun nanofibers, including nanofibrous membranes, have attracted enormous interest for energy and environmental applications, whether for energy generation and storage, or separation and purification. Electrospun polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF)-based nanofibers, in particular, have been extensively studied for various applications (e.g., separation membranes) due to their excellent thermal and chemical stabilities, superior mechanical strength, and excellent processability. In this review, we initially explore PVDF as a preferred material for nanofiber fabrication via electrospinning, highlighting its unique chemistry. Subsequently, we discuss common electrospinning techniques, structures, and the functionality of the resultant nanofibers. As electrospun nanofibers often exhibit relatively open structures with large pores and high porosity, requiring further modification, we consolidate and analyze several pivotal modification methods for electrospun nanofibers, including crosslinking, surface coating, and assembly. We also explore the applications of electrospun PVDF-based nanofibers for clean energy and sustainable environment, including energy harvesting and storage, self-powered sensors, water treatment through different membrane processes, gas separation, and environmental sensing. Finally, we discuss the prospects of electrospun PVDF-based nanofibers for clean energy and sustainable environment. This review provides important guidance on developing desirable electrospun PVDF-based nanofibers and harnessing their capabilities to achieve a sustainable future characterized by clean energy, clean water, and clean air.

Functional porous carbon materials are at the forefront of current research due to their exceptional properties, making them highly sought after for various applications, including energy storage/conversion, sensing, adsorption, and catalysis. One crucial factor in producing carbon materials with specific uses and optimized functions is the selection of appropriate carbon precursors. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as game-changing precursors due to their adaptable molecular design and adjustable structures. As a result, they exhibit tremendous potential for the development of advanced carbon materials. In recent years, there has been remarkable progress in COF-derived carbon materials, and we try to comprehensively cover COF-derived carbon materials from their synthetic methods to specific applications. Focusing on the relationship between structure and properties in COF-derived carbon materials, mechanism during carbonization, morphology control strategies, and properties modulation approaches are highlighted, followed by their representative applications in the last 10 years. Moreover, despite the significant advances achieved to date, COF-derived carbon materials still suffer from some limitations. Thus, proposals on how to improve COF-derived carbon materials’ performance are also discussed, as well as future challenges and perspectives, aiming to provide concise yet informative guidelines for choosing suitable carbon materials for particular applications.

Aortic dissection continues to be responsible for significant morbidity and mortality, although recent advances in medical data assimilation and in experimental and in silico models have improved our understanding of the initiation and progression of the accumulation of blood within the aortic wall. Hence, there remains a pressing necessity for innovative and enhanced models to more accurately characterize the associated pathological changes. Early on, experimental models were employed to uncover mechanisms in aortic dissection, such as hemodynamic changes and alterations in wall microstructure, and to assess the efficacy of medical implants. While experimental models were once the only option available, more recently they are also being used to validate in silico models. Based on an improved understanding of the deteriorated microstructure of the aortic wall, numerous multiscale material models have been proposed in recent decades to study the state of stress in dissected aortas, including the changes associated with damage and failure. Furthermore, when integrated with accessible patient-derived medical data, in silico models prove to be an invaluable tool for identifying correlations between hemodynamics, wall stresses, or thrombus formation in the deteriorated aortic wall. They are also advantageous for model-guided design of medical implants with the aim of evaluating the deployment and migration of implants in patients. Nonetheless, the utility of in silico models depends largely on patient-derived medical data, such as chosen boundary conditions or tissue properties. In this review article, our objective is to provide a thorough summary of medical data elucidating the pathological alterations associated with this disease. Concurrently, we aim to assess experimental models, as well as multiscale material and patient data-informed in silico models, that investigate various aspects of aortic dissection. In conclusion, we present a discourse on future perspectives, encompassing aspects of disease modeling, numerical challenges, and clinical applications, with a particular focus on aortic dissection. The aspiration is to inspire future studies, deepen our comprehension of the disease, and ultimately shape clinical care and treatment decisions.

Color is a property directly discernible by our eyes, making it perceptually conspicuous. Changes in color, whether achromatic (from white to black) or chromatic (from colorless to colored or between different colors), are easily detectable by people with normal vision or through simple spectrophotometric instruments. The categorization of chromogenic systems reveals various mechanisms of chromism. Applications photochromic, thermochromic, and electrochromic materials have been extensively discussed, including their behavior, mechanisms, and limitations. In the landscape of future energy storage systems, the significance of chromisms transcends conventional boundaries, promising transformative impacts on energy efficiency, management strategies, and sustainability. Chromic materials, endowed with their dynamic color-changing attributes, emerge as catalysts for innovation across diverse applications such as batteries, supercapacitors, and smart windows. This review aspires to offer a comprehensive exposition on the intrinsic chromism phenomena within energy storage systems. Commencing with a succinct overview of chromism phenomena and their nuanced formation mechanisms, the narrative seamlessly transitions to an exhaustive scrutiny of recent strides. This exploration encompasses a thorough examination of the components, intricate structures, and diverse properties characterizing chromism phenomena.

Thermal conductivity is critical to the stable operation, service life and reliability of electronic equipment. Solving thermal management problems in electronic devices requires the development of composites with high thermal conductivity. The interface between the filler and the matrix is formed due to the addition of the thermal conductive filler. The presence of interfaces greatly affects the heat transfer of composites. Therefore, it is a challenge to effectively control interface behavior and reduce interface thermal resistance. This review describes the mechanism of heat conduction and the theory of thermal conductivity of composites, and analyzes in depth the effect of interfacial thermal resistance on phonon heat transfer. The importance of improving the thermal conductivity of composites based on interfacial regulation strategies is illustrated from three aspects: non-directional structure design of fillers, co-doping of fillers and multi-layer structure design. Combined with the current research status, this review also describes the multifunctionality of thermally conductive composites. It is hoped that this review will provide some guidance for the study of polymer-based thermally conductive composites.

It is hoped that this review will provide some guidance for the study of polymer-based thermally conductive composites.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":411,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Materials Science","volume":"148 ","pages":"Article 101362"},"PeriodicalIF":33.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142162626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been widely employed in many engineering fields due to their unique functional properties, such as super-elasticity, elastocaloric effect, and shape memory effect. Besides the experimental observation, the phase field approach is a mainstream and significant research tool and has played an increasingly prominent role in predicting the functional properties and fracture behavior of SMAs and revealing correspondent physical mechanisms. In this work, the phase field models of SMAs are first introduced, including the models of thermally induced SMAs addressing a) the fundamental framework for the martensite transformation and considering some influence factors; b) precipitation behavior; c) fracture behavior; and those of magnetically induced SMAs. Then, the state-of-the-art of phase field simulations on the thermally induced SMAs are systematically reviewed by concerning the martensite transformation, functional properties, and fracture behavior, and those on the magnetically induced SMAs are also reviewed by considering the magnetic-field-induced strain and mechanical-field- and magnetic-field-induced shape memory effect. Finally, the future research directions of the phase field modeling of SMAs are prospected.
形状记忆合金（SMA）因其独特的功能特性，如超弹性、弹性热效应和形状记忆效应，已被广泛应用于许多工程领域。除了实验观察之外，相场方法也是一种主流的重要研究工具，在预测 SMA 的功能特性和断裂行为以及揭示相应的物理机制方面发挥着越来越突出的作用。本文首先介绍了 SMA 的相场模型，包括热诱导 SMA 的模型（a）马氏体转变的基本框架并考虑一些影响因素；（b）析出行为；（c）断裂行为；以及磁诱导 SMA 的模型。然后，通过马氏体转变、功能特性和断裂行为，系统回顾了热诱导 SMA 相场模拟的最新进展；通过考虑磁场诱导应变以及机械场和磁场诱导形状记忆效应，回顾了磁诱导 SMA 相场模拟的最新进展。最后，展望了 SMA 相场建模的未来研究方向。
