**FINDING:** Icosahedral symmetry group \( I_h \) (order 120) is simple, and its rotational subgroup \( A_5 \) is the smallest non-abelian simple group. The group is intimately linked to the golden ratio \(\phi\) and appears in optimal volume-to-surface ratio problems (e.g., icosahedron is the Platonic solid with maxi…

This is the instrument paper of the Structural Control series, and it is deliberately two-sided, with every claim carrying a declared evidence stratum. The telemetry side is measured: a single-channel precursor estimator — rolling median, robust MAD threshold, persistence gate — as two predeclared, cadence-scaled conf…

Magnesium (Mg) is known for its biocompatibility in degradable body implants, with mechanical properties similar to bone tissue. Pure Mg corrodes too fast for implants, but alloying or coating are methods to slow down the implant surface degradation. Using density functional theory calculations we study the adsorption…

Abstract This work investigates the curing behavior of epoxidised soybean oil (ESO) with citric (CA), maleic (MA), and salicylic (SA) acids. The curing process was monitored by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at heating rates of 5–20 °C min–1. FTIR analysis showed…

ABSTRACT Efficient anti‑/de‑icing coatings are urgently needed for outdoor infrastructures in cold climates. Here, we report a photothermal superhydrophobic coating based on ultrasmall‑bandgap tellurium nanowires (TeNWs, E g = 0.43 eV) synthesized via a surfactant‑assisted solid‑solid‑solid growth strategy. The compos…

This perspective proposes a structural accessibility hypothesis for interpreting negative biodegradation results in crosslinked photopolymer additive-manufacturing materials. The hypothesis is deliberately non-exclusive: an observed low biodegradation fraction may reflect intrinsic chemical recalcitrance, limited acce…
