3D Cf/SiC composites, consisting of carbon fibers reinforced with silicon carbide are increasingly used in aerospace and defence due to their excellent mechanical properties and high-temperature strength.

Circular polymer composites can help to decrease virgin resin consumption and provide value from agricultural waste, but there are still challenges with recycled-feedstock variability and poor fiber–matrix interfaces to achieve consistent performance.

Additive manufacturing has successfully manufactured lightweight, programmable and geometrically complicated components. However, reliable mechanical performance and efficient use of resources remain hard.

Biodegradable sensing materials are needed for sustainable smart electricity metering, yet cellulose/single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) systems lack a unified percolation and structure–property description.

High-performance polymer composites are emerging as versatile platforms for next-generation biomedical sensor interfaces because they can combine mechanical compliance, electrical functionality, biocompatibility, and structural tunability within a single material system.

Uncontrolled hemorrhage remains one of the leading causes of preventable trauma-related mortality worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for rapid, effective, and biocompatible hemostatic materials.
