AbstractThis work presents an innovative concept for the design and construction of timber grid shells, combining the advantages of active bending, carpentry joints, and digital fabrication, using a new laminated veneer lumber (LVL) made from Eucalyptus globulus L., which allows a fast
Martinez-Topete, A., Robles, M., Pérez, G., Martín-Consuegra, F., Castellote, M. & Jiménez-Relinque, E. Ecofriendly multifunctional bismuth oxyiodides pigment and paint coatings: Photocatalytic and cooling functionalities. Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology A: Chemistry, Volume 460, 116151 (2025).

Abstract This work explores the potential application of bismuth oxyiodides as “cool” and photocatalytic materials. The BiOI-orange (microflower) and Bi5O7I-white (microneedle) pigments demonstrated multifunctional properties. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to their suitable band structures for NOx pollutant degradation.
