Supergravity and In‐Situ Evaporation Induced Well‐Aligned and Self‐Crosslinked 2D Material‐Based Thin Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The supergravity and in‐situ evaporation are utilized to produce GO thin films with a record‐high mechanical strength of 540 MPa. The supergravity confines the 2D flakes within a very thin layer and creates a large all‐directional shear stress to induce the superalignment, while in‐situ evaporation accelerates the dehydration and facilitates the ester ...

Growth Factor‐Loaded Mesoporous Silica Particles, Incorporated in Electrospun PCL Fibres, Provide Topographical and Chemical Cues for Tendon Tissue Engineering

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Electrospinning enables the hierarchical assembly of nanofiber‐based scaffolds for tissue engineering. However, encapsulated proteins often undergo structural changes. This study used mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as protective carriers, mitigating protein denaturation and supporting controlled release.
