“Brick‐Mortar‐Binder” Design toward Highly Elastic, Hydrophobic, and Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulator by Shanying Sui, Huafeng Quan, Jingxing Wang, Yufang Lu, Yufan Yang, Yuhan Sheng, Zhifang Sun, Yi Zhang

“…Inspired by a “brick‐mortar‐binder” biomimetic texture, a layered double hydroxide/carboxylated cellulose nanofibers/Si–O–Si (LCS) hybrid aerogel is developed by bottom‐up freeze‐drying. Owing to the distinct building blocks and organized structure, as‐prepared LCS hybrid aerogel exhibits impressive mechanical elasticity, cycling stability at an extremely low temperature (‐196 °C), hydrophobicity, and flame‐retardancy (LOI = 44.6%, UL‐94: V‐0). …”

Traductibilité et design : explorer les paramètres génératifs du brief by Laurent Mertz, Justine Peneau, Dorian Reunkrilerk

“…As Walter Benjamin (1968) demonstrates, in translatology this negotiation can be based on two opposite approaches: one he calls literal translation and the other translatability. The first one freezes languages and their malleable nature, unlike the second one which creates new language potential. …”
