Intrinsic and Water‐Triggered Hydrophilicity in Tween 20‐PDMS Composites for Dynamic and Long‐Term Wettability Control

Small, EarlyView.
A one‐step bulk integration of the surfactant Tween 20 into PDMS enables intrinsic and water‐triggered hydrophilicity. Combined molecular simulations and experiments reveal a dual mechanism where bound and mobile Tween 20 molecules cooperatively induce self‐activating, stretch‐tolerant, and long‐term wettability, supporting self‐driven liquid transport,

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.
