Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

Highly Scalable, Raspberry‐Like Microbeads with Nano‐/Micro‐Confined Hybrid Hydrogel Desiccants for Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable nano‐/micro‐confinement strategy is developed, where polyacrylamide (PAM)‐LiCl hybrid desiccants are confined within hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) and assembled into raspberry‐like microbeads. The beads have a hydrogel‐rich core and an NP‐rich shell for fast absorption and desorption, releasing water 13.6 L kg⁻¹ day⁻¹.

Chemo‐Mechanical Coupling in Hydrogels: Dynamics in the Diffusion‐Limited Regime

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A time‐dependent continuum model is developed to capture the transient swelling dynamics of chemo‐mechanical hydrogels. By coupling chemical reactions, solvent transport, and polymer deformation, volume phase transitions, reaction kinetics, and transient mechanical instabilities are analyzed.

Functional Hydrogel for Modulating Lipid Droplets and Neuroinflammation in Head Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
After TBI, elevated cholesterol levels in activated microglia lead to the accumulation of cholesterol esters in lipid droplets, exacerbating neuroinflammation. A β‐cyclodextrin‐conjugated GelMA (βCD‐GelMA) hydrogel is developed to promotes cholesterol efflux and reduces LDL influx, thereby alleviating intracellular cholesterol and lipid droplet buildup.

Metal‐Organic Framework Embedded Electrospun Fibrous Membranes‐Based Hybrid Nanogenerators with Hierarchical Modified Polyamide Films for Mechanical Energy Harvesting and IoT Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid nanogenerator (HNG) based on a zinc‐metal‐organic framework‐loaded fibrous film integrated with a hierarchically modified nylon film having micropatterns and micropores is fabricated via an electrospinning technique, and its electrical properties are optimized. The HNGs are incorporated into wearable garments and automobile systems for practical

Near‐Infrared Emitting Lanthanide Catecholate Giant Single Crystals – Morphology Control and Photon Down‐Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled syntheses of lanthanide coordination polymers based on the dihydroxybenzoquinone (DHBQ) organic linker afforded large single crystals of Ln‐DHBQ CPs (Ln = Yb, Nd). A novel structural variant of Yb‐DHBQ is identified by means of single crystal diffraction analysis.

A Robust Dual‐mode Self‐Monitoring Battery Thermal Management System via Bilayer Structural Design

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An adaptive dual‐mode material capable of both evaporative cooling and photothermal preheating is developed. It achieves a cooling efficiency of 53.9%, surpassing existing evaporative cooling counterparts, and a self‐monitoring capability, making it ideal for electric vehicles, portable electronics, and grid‐scale energy storage.

Solvent‐Induced Octahedral Self‐Assembly of Prussian Blue and Its Applications in Sodium‐Ion Capacitors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the stepwise assembly process of octahedral Prussian Blue (PB) particles in glycerol. Initially, smaller cubic PB nanoparticles form and interact in the solvent. Over time, these particles undergo dissolution and reassembly, leading to the formation of well‐defined octahedral structures with minimized surface energy.

Correlation of Total Body Potassium with Body-Water [PDF]

open access: possibleNature, 1956
THE total potassium content of the human body1 is of considerable interest from the point of view of physiology and in connexion with the clinical study of certain muscular disorders. Recently it has acquired additional interest because the radioactivity of naturally occurring potassium-40 in the body constitutes the principal ‘background’ in some 4π ...
