A surprising new source of conductivity from oxygen atoms trapped inside has been noted by a research group probing the properties of a semiconductor integrated with a novel thin oxide film.
Shape-memory polymers are an emerging class of smart polymer materials that have been a research focus since the 1980s in the materials sciences. Writing in Polymers, researchers from Spain and Italy have investigated the synergic effects of electrospun fibers and shape-memory properties, with implications for the fields of biomedical sciences, sensors, smart electronics, and actuators.

A paper in Polymers, published this week, has investigated the properties of soil enhanced with biopolymers. Whilst there has been growing research interest in soil engineering with biopolymers, thus far there has been little engineering application for these materials to enhance the properties of soil. This research has implications for research into the improvement of soils for construction purposes.
