T1 - The sustainable materials roadmap N2 - Our ability to produce and transform engineered materials over the past 150 years is responsible for our high standards of living today, especially in the developed economies. Yet, we must carefully think of the effects our addiction to creating and using materials at this fast rate will have on the future generations. The way we currently make and use materials detrimentally affects the planet Earth, creating many severe environmental problems. It affects the next generations by putting in danger the future of economy, energy, and climate. We are at the point where something must drastically change, and it must change NOW. We must create more sustainable materials alternatives using natural raw materials and inspiration from Nature while making sure not to deplete important resources, i.e. in competition with the food chain supply. We must use less materials, eliminate the use of toxic materials and create a circular materials economy where reuse and recycle are priorities. We must develop sustainable methods for materials recycling and encourage design for disassembly. We must look across the whole materials life cycle from raw resources till end of life and apply thorough life cycle assessments based on reliable and relevant data to quantify sustainability.

T1 - Interfacing with the Brain: How Nanotechnology Can Contribute N2 - Interfacing artificial devices with the human brain is the central goal of neurotechnology. Yet, our imaginations are often limited by currently available paradigms and technologies. Suggestions for brain−machine interfaces have changed over time, along with the available technology. Mechanical levers and cable winches were used to move parts of the brain during the mechanical age. Sophisticated electronic wiring and remote control have arisen during the electronic age, ultimately leading to plug-and-play computer interfaces. Nonetheless, our brains are so complex that these visions, until recently, largely remained unreachable dreams. The general problem, thus far, is that most of our technology is mechanically and/or electrically engineered, whereas the brain is a living, dynamic entity. As a result, these worlds are difficult to interface with one another. Nanotechnology, which encompasses engineered solid-state objects and integrated circuits, excels at small length scales of single to a few hundred nanometers and, thus, matches the sizes of biomolecules, biomolecular assemblies, and parts of cells. Consequently, we envision nanomaterials and nanotools as opportunities to interface with the brain in alternative ways. Here, we review the existing literature on the use of nanotechnology in brain−machine interfaces and look forward in discussing perspectives and limitations based on the authors’ expertise across a range of complementary disciplines from neuroscience, engineering, physics, and chemistry to biology and medicine, computer science and mathematics, and social science and jurisprudence. We focus on nanotechnology but also include information from related fields when useful and complementary.

T1 - Quantitative considerations about the size dependence of cellular entry and excretion of colloidal nanoparticles for different cell types N2 - Most studies about the interaction of nanoparticles (NPs) with cells have focused on how the physicochemical properties of NPs will influence their uptake by cells. However, much less is known about their potential excretion from cells. However, to control and manipulate the number of NPs in a cell, both cellular uptake and excretion must be studied quantitatively. Monitoring the intracellular and extracellular amount of NPs over time (after residual noninternalized NPs have been removed) enables one to disentangle the influences of cell proliferation and exocytosis, the major pathways for the reduction of NPs per cell. Proliferation depends on the type of cells, while exocytosis depends in addition on properties of the NPs, such as their size. Examples are given herein on the role of these two different processes for different cells and NPs.

T1 - A first step towards a standardized iron fuel: Safety characteristics of several pure iron powders N2 - While the use of iron powder as a dense energy carrier has clear advantages over other carriers such as hydrogen and ammonia in terms of health and safety, risks may still emerge from the powder if accidentally dispersed in air during handling, transport and storage. Since the safety characteristics of dusts are affected by, among others, its particle size distribution, chemical properties and moisture content, it is hard to implement safety measures and select the most promising reduction method without a prior explosion testing. Various production and reduction methods are currently being investigated, each producing a morphologically different type of powder. In one of the key databases on safety characteristics of dusts from the Federation of the Statutory Accident lnsurance of Germany, the maximum explosion pressure ranges from non-explosible (=0) to 5.1 bar and the deflagration index goes up to 111 bar*m /s. In this work the safety characteristics of four different iron dusts, produced via three different reduction methods, are investigated using a 20-Liter sphere according to ISO/IEC 80079–20-2:2016–12 (explosibility). Three of the dusts were found to be explosible and were further tested according to EN 14034–1 (maximum explosion pressure) and EN 14034–2 (maximum rate of pressure rise). Though they were found explosible they were all categorized in dust class St1 as mildly explosible. The morphology of the powder was analyzed before the explosion tests using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The particle size distribution was also determined. Since the chemical properties and the moisture content are known, the findings may be applicable to implementation at larger scale without prior testing of every powder.
