Abstract: Hierarchically structured and ultralight pullulan/poly(vinyl alcohol) (pullulan/PVA) aerogels or sponges are prepared from short electrospun nanofibers using solid templating. The architecture of the aerogel consists of cell-like pores of 50–100 µm interconnected by a network… read more here.

Abstract: Herein, a mushroom-like reentrant structure is proposed, inspired by springtails, to create a selective liquid sliding surface by implementing a simple yet sturdy silicon fabrication and lithography method. The fabricated arrays display high structural fidelity,… read more here.
