Congratulations to a PhD student in Department of Materials Science KU, Mr.Kwanchai Buaksuntear, he also worked at the Specialized center of rubber and polymer materials in agriculture and industry (RPM). His front cover work and manuscript have been accepted to publish by ACS Applied Polymer Materials in 2025 Volume 7 issue 6. The mussel-inspired mechanism was applied in natural rubber products, which utilized noncovalent interactions to improve the filler dispersion and rubber properties. You can find the application of this work as the RPM rubber tire in the front cover file, please feel free to promote this interested work, thank you.
