For years, silk fibroin of a domestic silkworm, Bombyx mori, has been recognized as a valuable material and extensively used. In the last decades, new application fields are emerging for this versatile material. Those final, specific applications of silk dictate the way it has been processed in industry and research. This review focuses on the description of various approaches for silk downstream processing in a laboratory scale, that fall within several categories. The detailed description of workflow possibilities from the naturally found material to a finally formulated product is presented. Considerable attention is given to (bio-) chemical approaches of silk fibroin transformation, particularly, to its enzyme-driven modifications. The focus of the current literature survey is exclusively on the methods applied in research and not industry.

A implementação de quadros de valor, mérito e excelência nas escolas portuguesas, nos quais se distinguem os alunos com comportamentos e desempenhos académicos exemplares, constitui o ponto de partida desta comunicação. Num primeiro momento, pretendemos abordar o processo de transição dos alunos distinguidos para o ensino superior. No momento seguinte, incidiremos o nosso olhar sobre as disposições destes jovens face ao ofício de aluno, aos atores e às instituições que marcaram os seus percursos e às expectativas que nortearam os diversos investimentos académicos. Os dados empíricos foram recolhidos no âmbito de um estudo de caso numa escola secundária do Norte de Portugal. Em relação aos alunos já ingressados no ensino superior e para aqueles que já concluíram este nível de ensino, tentaremos refletir sobre o grau de ajustamento destas experiências às expectativas inicialmente formuladas e/ou subsumidas nos sentidos das respostas e nas opções declaradas face ao futuro. Dos dados já obtidos, concluímos que a distinção académica parece escapar às lógicas do destino social, sendo a excelência escolar também visível em jovens de classes sociais mais baixas; concluímos também que estes percursos de excelência não têm na atualidade uma recompensa efetiva no acesso ao mercado de trabalho; e dentro do foco principal desta comunicação denotamos ainda a existência de transições não-lineares entre o secundário e o superior, designadamente no acesso ao curso pretendido e ao desempenho académico neste nível de ensino.

Purpose – Few research has addressed the factors that undermine people’s subjective perceptions of career success. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to further illuminate the issue of career barriers in perceptions of career success for a specific group of professionals: academics. Design/methodology/approach – This study adopts an interpretative-social constructionist methodology. Complementarily, it was employed a phenomenological method in data gathering and analysis – with the use of in-depth interviews and a theme analysis. The research was undertaken with a group of 87 Portuguese academics of both sexes and in different stages of their academic careers. Findings – The findings pinpoint the existence of multi-level barriers encountered by the academics when trying to succeed in their careers. The interviewees mentioned particularly the organizational-professional career barriers pertaining to three general themes: poor collegiality and workplace relationships; the lack of organizational support and employment precariousness; and the career progression standards and expectations. At the individual life cycle level the interviewees referred to the theme of finding balance; at the same time, the gender structure was also a theme mentioned as an important career barrier in career success, particularly by the women interviewed. Research limitations/implications – One of the limitations of this research is related to the impossibility of generalizability of its findings for the general population. Nevertheless, the researcher provides enough detail that grants the reader with the ability to judge of its similarity to other research contexts. Practical implications – This research highlights the role played by distinct career barriers for a specific professional group: academics. This has implications for higher education policy-makers and for human resources managers in higher education institutions. Originality/value – The current study extends the literature on career success by offering detailed anecdotal evidence on how negative work experiences might hinder career success. This research shows that to understand career barriers to success it is useful to consider multi-level factors: organizational-level factors (e.g. poor collegiality and workplace relationships); individual-level factors (e.g. life-cycle factors such as age/career stage); and structural-level factors (e.g. gender).

Polymer electrolytes are currently the focus of much attention as potential electrolytes in electrochemical devices such as batteries, display devices and sensors. Generically, solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are mixtures of salts with soft polar polymers. SPEs have many advantages including high energy density, no risk of leakage, no issues related to the presence of solvent, wide electrochemical stability windows, simplified processability and light weight. With the goal of developing a new family of environmentally friendly multifunctional biohybrid materials displaying high ionic conductivity we have produced in the present work, flexible films based on different polymers or hybrids incorporating different salts. The polymer electrolytes studied here have been characterized by means of Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermogravimetric Analysis, X-ray diffraction, Polarized Optical Microscopy, complex impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. An evaluation of the performance of the sample with the highest conductivity as electrolyte in all solid-state ECDs was performed.
