Surface Termination Engineering of 2D Titanium Carbides for Light-Activated Soft Robotics Applications Open
The transition metal carbide (TMC) Ti3C2Tx exhibits exceptional electrical conductivity, photothermal conversion, and mechanical flexibility. The latter two properties are useful for creating coatings that convert light into heat, which ca…

SPOTTER: Assessing supply disruption impacts along the supply chain within Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment Open
The present article introduces the SPOTTER approach, a novel way to assess supply disruption impacts along the supply chain in the short-term (i.e. the next 5 years) and the medium-term (i.e. in 5 to 15 years) within the Life Cycle Sustain…

The role of industrial actors in the circular economy for critical raw materials: a framework with case studies across a range of industries Open
In this article, we explore concrete examples of circularity strategies for critical raw materials (CRMs) in commercial settings. We propose a company-level framework for systematically evaluating circularity strategies (e.g., material rec…

WITHDRAWN: A review of methods and data to determine raw material criticality Open
The assessment of the criticality of raw materials allows the identification of the likelihood of a supply disruption of a material and the vulnerability of a system (e.g. a national economy, technology, or company) to this disruption. Inc…
