A study of The impact of Antibiotic Pollution and The types of Environmental Pollution It causes
Abstract: Antibiotics are essential biological drugs for human health and are the cornerstone of treating infections caused by various bacteria and viruses. However, they also pose a significant risk if misused, as each antibiotic is designed for a specific type of bacteria. Sometimes, due to the evolution of bacteria, many antibiotics have become ineffective and resistant to contamination and infection. Therefore, they can have the opposite effect, polluting the environment instead …

Strategic Integration of Machine Learning in Polymer Composite Development: A Framework for R&D Portfolio Management and Technological Adoption
Abstract: The progress of advanced polymer composites is slow, costly and unpredictable due to traditional methods of trial-and-error research. As materials informatics and data-driven modeling speed up the process of discovering technology, there exists a huge disconnect between computational predictions on one hand and strategic decision-making on the other in research and development (R&D). To solve this issue, this paper presents the Agile Materials-Intelligence (AMI) Framework, a systematic combined methodology that …

AI-Driven Inverse Design of Functionally Graded Bio-Nanocomposites for Sustainable High-Barrier Packaging
Abstract: Multilayer plastic packaging realizes high barrier performance through laminated heterogeneous structures, but the heterogeneous structure has severe end-of-life challenges caused by the interfacial incompatibility of materials and the poor recyclability. This study proposes the inverse design of functionally graded PLA-nanoclay composite films by reinforcement learning as a monolithic alternative to traditional multilayer systems. Twin-screw extrusion is designed as a continuous control Markov decision process, and proximal policy optimization (PPO) is …
