Ultra‐High‐Throughput Discovery of Multifunctional Polyphenolic Coatings on Droplet Microarrays

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
An ultra‐high‐throughput (UHT) combinatorial strategy enables the miniaturized synthesis and screening of ≈30 000 polyamine‐polyphenolic (PaPp) coatings using droplet microarrays (DMA). This approach reveals hundreds of previously unknown fluorescent, redox‐active, and antibacterial materials, including multifunctional, cell‐compatible surfaces ...

Corrosion and Degradation of Materials in Marine Environments: Implications for Coastal and Offshore Infrastructure

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study presents a failure‐oriented analysis of corrosion in marine infrastructure, linking degradation mechanisms to crack initiation, fatigue propagation, and structural failure. A unified framework is proposed to connect environmental exposure, material degradation, and reliability, supporting failure prediction, inspection planning, and life ...

Tunable Sol–Gel Transition in Poloxamer Blends for Injectable Osteoarticular Applications

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Thermoresponsive poloxamers are commonly used in biomedical applications; however, their wider translational applicability depends on precisely controlling sol–gel transition behavior near body temperature while ensuring injectability and a favorable biocompatibility profile.

Triiodide Faujasites With Reactive, Ionic, Antimicrobial, and Catalytic Applications

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Alkyl iodides and zeolites react under open‐air reaction conditions to give triiodide anions (I3−) inside the zeolite (I3−@zeolite), without any additive or solvent. The multigram solid, with up to ≈25 wt% I3− loadings, is active as a water disinfection agent, bacteria and yeast antiseptic, solid electrolyte, and catalytic solid for the carbonyl–olefin

A Novel Low‐Cost Technique for Three‐Dimensional Cardiopulmonary Preservation Using Internal Poly(Vinyl Acetate) (PVAc) Injection

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Anatomical preservation is essential for teaching and research; however, conventional formaldehyde‐based techniques present limitations due to toxicity, volatility and environmental impact. Plastination provides excellent morphological quality, but its high cost, reliance on flammable solvents and requirement for specialized equipment limit ...

Antimicrobial properties of hindered amine light stabilizers in polymer coating materials and their mechanism of action

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
UV-stabilizers are a class of additives that provide extended polymer resistance to UV-degradation, but have also been suggested to have antimicrobial activity, potentially preventing the spread of pathogens, and inhibiting microbial-induced ...

Silver and Antimicrobial Polymer Nanocomplexes to Enhance Biocidal Effects

International Journal of Molecular Sciences
Antimicrobial resistance has become a major problem over the years and threatens to remain in the future, at least until a solution is found. Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) and antimicrobial polymers (APs) are known for their antimicrobial properties and can be considered an alternative approach to fighting resistant microorganisms. Hence, the main goal

Evaluation of bactericidal action of 2-vinylpiridine copolymers containing quaternary ammonium groups and their charge transfer complexes

Polímeros, 2013
We report the development of copolymers based on 2-vinylpyridine with different porosity degrees. The copolymers were quaternized with methyl iodide and acrylonitrile to introduce quaternary ammonium groups on pyridine units.

Anti-fungal and anti-termite activity of extractives compounds from thermally modified ash woods

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2020
Thermal modification of wood is a promising alternative to chemical and biocidal modification processes, increasing the biological durability and dimensional stability of wood. However, the wood-decay resistance properties of heat-treated wood are still
