Antifouling Surface‐Attached Hydrogel Nanocoatings Redefined: Green Solvent‐Based, Degradable, and High‐Performance Protection Against Foulants

Advanced Materials Interfaces
Antifouling coatings are vital to enhance the performance of medical devices, aiming to mitigate bodily reactions by shielding their surface. Despite significant advancements in antifouling coatings, like those based on zwitterionic monomers and hydroxyl‐

A Hydrogen‐Releasing Nanozyme Engineers a Mitochondrial ROS Amplifier for Self‐Sustaining Catalytic Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed a RhPd‐H nanozyme that integrates enhanced POD‐mimetic catalytic activity with thermally triggered H2 release. H2 shields and reprograms mitochondria to continuously leak endogenous ·O2−. This dual‐path ROS spatially and temporally disrupts redox homeostasis, inducing persistent oxidative stress for tumor suppression and antitumor immunity,

Sustainability Evaluation of AquaSun Antifouling Coating Production

, 2022
Relying on a cost-effective and green process that is technically and economically feasible on large scale is not enough to call a technology “sustainable”. We thus evaluate the sustainability of the production of the new “AquaSun”

Interface Wettability Transition‐Driven Drug Release and Dual‐Phase Functionalization in Implant Abutment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A temporally controlled drug release coating is developed for abutments using a superhydrophobic coating self‐assembled on mesoporous silica. This surface provides sequential functionality: initial contamination resistance through non‐wetting, followed by controlled drug release via wettability transition.

Integrated Hydrophilic Interdigitated Network for Silicone Rubber via a Gradient Polarity Modification Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work overcomes the long‐standing challenge of hydrophilic modification of silicone rubber via a gradient polarity modification strategy. By constructing a hydrophilic interpenetrating network within cured SR, simultaneous surface‐to‐bulk modification is achieved while enabling monitoring through a Eu3+ complex fluorescent tracer.

Antifouling Coatings Inspired by Biological Templates

Macromolecular Rapid Communications
AbstractSurface fouling is a major concern in health care, marine industry, and water purification plants. Polymeric coatings are traditionally utilized to reduce the attachment of foulants on a surface, however low density and thickness of polymer brushes formed by surface initiated polymerization methods, surface exhaustion by continuous exposure to ...
