IoT-Connected Transparent Conductive Polymer–Silver Nano-wire Electrodes for Real-Time Performance Monitoring of Flexible Solar Panels
Abstract: Flexible photovoltaic technologies have emerged as promising energy harvesting solutions for wearable electronics, portable power systems, and Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled smart devices. However, the limited mechanical durability of conventional transparent conductive electrodes and the lack of integrated real-time monitoring restrict their long-term reliability. This study presents an IoT-connected transparent conductive polymer–silver nanowire (PEDOT:PSS–AgNW) hybrid electrode for flexible solar panels, combining high optoelectronic performance with continuous wireless performance monitoring. The …

Digital Twin-Driven Optimization of Dynamic Covalent Polymer Networks under Real-Time IoT Monitoring
Abstract: The dynamic covalent polymer networks (DCPNs) has the highest allurement because of the reversibility of all of the chemicals and repetitive. The process of convalescence is delayed, the sense of source betrayal and acting relations is too strong. This transport to our material situation is an ever-refrigerated digital twin in this painting which was developed through repetition produced by constant synchronism sensors of the IoT that is constantly refined by …

Green Synthesis and Functional Evaluation of Ag–Polypyrrole/TeO2 Nanocomposites for Advanced Electronic Applications
Abstract: Ag–PPy/TeO₂ nanocomposites with TeO₂ loadings ranging from 2% to 10% were synthesized using an in-situ chemical polymerization method. Green tea extract, rich in phytochemicals, acted as both a reducing and stabilizing agent to facilitate the formation of metal oxide nanoparticles. The structural and morphological characteristics of the nanocomposites were analyzed using FTIR, PXRD, and SEM techniques. FTIR confirmed the successful integration of Ag, TeO₂, and PPy functional groups. PXRD patterns …

Autonomous Agentic AI for Adaptive Cure Optimization and Defect Prevention in Thermoset Polymer Composite Manufacturing
Abstract: Thermoset polymer composites occupy a central position in modern structural manufacturing, from aircraft fuselages to wind-turbine blades. Despite progress in resin chemistry and fiber architecture, the “cure process” that transforms compliant preforms into load-bearing structures remains difficult to manage. Manufacturers encounter ‘voids’, “interlaminar delaminations”, and “spring-back distortion” when curing complex or thick-section parts. The cause is not ignorance of the relevant physics, but rather that ‘temperature’, ‘chemistry’, ‘rheology’, and ‘mechanics’ …

Fabrication of Polydimethylsiloxane Composites with Nickel Nanoparticles: Unification and Current–Voltage Relationship
Abstract: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)–nickel nanoparticle (NiNPs) nanocomposite films were fabricated and systematically investigated to understand their electrical transport behavior through current–voltage (I–V) characterization. Nanocomposite films with varying Ni nanoparticle filler concentrations (14.88 wt%, 15.77 wt%, and 16.65 wt%) were prepared using a solution-mixing and spin-coating technique, followed by controlled thermal curing. The electrical properties of both pristine PDMS and PDMS– NiNPs nanocomposites were examined over a wide voltage range (up to 800 …
