The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Liquid‐Phase Fabrication of Janus 2D Materials: Defect‐Rich MoS2 Ultrathin Layers Asymmetrically Decorated with Au Nanoparticles

Small, EarlyView.
This work presents a versatile strategy for asymmetrically decorating MoS2 flakes using SiO2 microspheres as masking templates. The Janus MoS2 exhibits a 1.9‐fold enhancement in photoluminescence (PL) due to the incorporation of Au nanoparticles (NPs), primarily dominated by B exciton emission, which is attributed to defect‐rich structures.

Cellulose Acetate Fibers With Infiltrated ZnO Nanocrystals: Activation of Antibacterial Properties Against Acne vulgaris by Oxygen Plasma Treatment

Small, EarlyView.
We present biodegradable cellulose acetate fibers infiltrated with ZnO nanocrystals for Acne treatment. Fibers produced by centrifugal spinning were vapor‐phase infiltrated to contain uniform ZnO nanocrystals. Oxygen plasma treatment enhanced the fibers´ wettability.

Direct Synthesis of Exfoliated Carbon Nitride Mediated by Sodiated Cellulose Nanocrystals for Photocatalytic and Adsorbent Applications

Small, EarlyView.
Few atomic‐layer‐thick carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNS) were synthesized using an in situ exfoliation technique. The directly exfoliated CNNS exhibited a wider electronic bandgap along with a fourfold increase in specific surface area and tenfold increase in pore volume.

Mechanical Properties and Quantitative Analytical Modelling of Micro/Nanocellulose Co‐Modified Insulating Papers With Different Aspect Ratios

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The incorporation of nanocellulose‐doped insulating paper into the material composition of a given structure has been demonstrated to enhance the material’s mechanical properties and retard the development of cracks. However, the effects of different length‐to‐diameter ratios of nanocellulose are different.

Fibril Synthesis From Food Processing By‐Products and Strategies for Structure–Function Stabilization for Food Applications

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Protein fibrils can be synthesized from both conventional and by‐product protein sources, each having distinct advantages. Stabilization through polysaccharides and polyphenols can enhance fibril functional properties, such as gelling, foaming, and emulsification, thus furthering their application in food and non‐food materials.
