“…When the phase-change materials are loaded with photothermal materials, they can store solar energy in the form of thermal energy for further recycling or conversion. Recently, Liu, Li, and co-workers applied AIE materials to phase-change materials for the first time (Figure b) . By encapsulating carbon dots with AIE properties and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) in porous delignified wood (DW), the temperature can be raised to 55.7 °C within 4 min under stimulated light irradiation.…”

Solar energy is the most abundant energy resource on earth. Unfortunately, only a very small portion of the solar radiation can be utilized by current light-harvesting materials, thus leading to the poor utilization efficiency of solar energy. In this regard, aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) have demonstrated versatile properties that can enhance energy conversion and potentially revolutionize solar utilization systems. AIEgens with great processability can selectively absorb radiation across multiple spectral regions and transform solar energy into longer-wavelength light, heat, or alternative forms of energy. These processes can considerably enhance the solar energy utilization performance by either developing light-harvesting systems based on AIEgens or hybridizing modern light-harvesting systems with AIE technology. In this Perspective, based on material properties, we highlight different functions of AIEgens related to solar light utilization, including sunlight transformation, chemical conversion, and thermal conversion.

“…Por otro lado, con la finalidad de mejorar las propiedades mecánicas del material compuesto, se han preparado nanocompuestos con almidón de madera utilizando nanotubos de pared múltiple, con lo que se mejoró las propiedades térmicas, mecánicas, flamabilidad y resistencia al agua [70] . Liu et al [76] desarrollaron un material compuesto fluorescente termocrómico basado en puntos de carbono de agregación inducida para una conversión y almacenamiento de energía solar térmica. En este sentido, Zhou et al [1] desarrollaron un material compuesto de polvos de madera con poliuretano (PU), dopado con nanohojas de óxido de grafeno para el almacenamiento de energía.…”

Los compuestos de madera-plástico han sido objeto de interés por parte de investigadores por sus propiedades mejoradas, en comparación con los productos basados únicamente en plástico o madera. Sin embargo, durante algunos años se han estudiado los efectos de algunos nanorrellenos sobre estos compuestos. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo la revisión de las investigaciones más relevantes en trabajos publicados en revistas científicas sobre los efectos de los nanorrellenos en los compuestos de madera y plástico. El material bibliográfico consultado se encuentra entre los años 2011 y 2021. En este estudio se discuten los beneficios ambientales, la limitación de las aplicaciones y los efectos de algunas nanopartículas en estos compuestos con plástico virgen y reciclado. Se concluye que los nanocompuestos de madera-plástico son una excelente opción de material con aplicaciones potenciales. No obstante, se sugiere visualizar las alternativas que existen para el uso de nanocompuestos madera-plástico en el diseño de producto.

Transparent wood (TW)‐based materials have increasingly become the focus of researchers worldwide owing to their superior physico‐chemical‐optical properties, sustainable nature, as well as the fact that they are highly accommodating frameworks that can act as building blocks to readily explore a vast range of potential functionalities, holding great potential to displace glass and plastics in their various respective applications. The integration of multiple functionalities into TW has been undertaken to fulfill the demands of prospective sophisticated applications through the utilization of functional fillers or coatings. Herein, the up‐to‐date foundational developments and reports concerning emergent TW composites and coatings from a perspective of fabrication‐functionality‐application are comprehensively summarized, with a particular focus on seven specific functionalities; i) solar control; ii) chromically‐responsive, iii) electrically‐conductive, iv) shape‐memory active; v) flame‐retardant; vi) electromagnetic interference shielding; and vii) aesthetics. The potential applications of TW with these functionalities are also discussed. Finally, the current challenge with TW is addressed, as well as the future developments required for eventual real‐world application.
