The title com-pound, {[Ni(CHO)(CHNO)(HO)]·HO}, contains octa-hedrally coordinated Ni ions ligated by adamantane-1,3-di-carboxyl-ate (adc) and -(pyridin-3-yl)isonicotinamide (3-pina) ligands forming coordination polymer layers with a (4,4) grid topology. These diperiodic layer motifs aggregate in an pattern mediated by supra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions to form the full triperiodic crystal structure of the title com-pound.

Joining heterogeneous materials in engineered structures remains a significant challenge due to stress concentration at interfaces, which often leads to unexpected failures. Investigating the complex, multiscale-graded structures found in animal tissue provides valuable insights that can help address this challenge. The human meniscus root-bone interface is an exemplary model, renowned for its exceptional fatigue resistance, toughness, and interfacial adhesion properties throughout its lifespan.

The exploitation of high-performance third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials that have a favorable optical limit (OL) threshold is essential due to a rise in the application of ultra-intense lasers. In this study, a Cu-based MOF (denoted as Cu-bpy) was synthesized, and its third-order NLO and OL properties were investigated using the Z-scan technique with the nanosecond laser pulse excitation set at 532 nm. The Cu-bpy exhibits a typical rate of reverse saturable absorption (RSA) with a third-order nonlinear absorption coefficient of 100 cm GW and a favorable OL threshold of 0.

As the rubber industry seeks sustainable alternatives to mitigate its environmental impact, this study introduces a biobased approach using polyfarnesene rubber reinforced with plasma-modified cellulose nanocrystals (MCNC) and nanofibers (MCNF). The nanocellulose was modified by plasma-induced polymerization using trans-β-farnesene and was characterized by FTIR, XPS, XRD, TGA, and SEM to confirm the grafting of farnesene-derived polymer chains onto the cellulose surface, demonstrating the successful modification and integration of the nanoparticles. Polyfarnesene bio-based rubbers were synthesized through two different polymerization techniques: solution-based coordination polymerization (PFA1) and emulsion-based free radical polymerization (PFA2).

Ion transport in solid polymer electrolytes is crucial for applications like energy conversion and storage, as well as carbon dioxide capture. However, most of the materials studied in this area are petroleum-based. Natural materials (biopolymers) have the potential to act as alternatives to petroleum-based products and, when derived with ionic liquid (IL) functionalities, present a sustainable alternative for conductive materials by offering tunable morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties.

Lithium (Li) metal anodes hold great promise for next-generation secondary batteries with high energy density. Unfortunately, several problems such as Li dendrite growth, low Coulombic efficiency and poor cycle life hinder the commercialization of Li metal anodes. Herein, we design a highly lithiophilic carbon cloth host modified with Sn-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) (ZnSn-CC) directly derived from a bimetallic ZnSn metal-organic framework (ZnSn-MOF), which boosts uniform Li plating/stripping during charge-discharge and effectively protects the Li metal anode.
