Hydrogel‐Based Smart Materials for Wound Healing and Sensing
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of hydrogel‐based flexible materials in advancing biomedical applications, including wound healing, point‐of‐care diagnostics, smart patches, and wearable devices. Hydrogels are particularly promising in modern wound care due to their high‐water content, flexibility, and biocompatibility.

Nanoscience in nature: cellulose nanocrystals
Nanoscience, the study of materials so small that not even light can capture them, seeks to unravel and understand the building blocks of our planet. Nature, perhaps the most talented nanoscientist, has created very remarkable biological nanomaterials including proteins, lipids and polysaccharides.

Cross‐linked protein crystals are introduced as a novel class of nontraditional luminescent materials (NLMs) exhibiting tunable full‐color photoluminescence. Three polymorphic lysozyme crystals establish a clear, definitive structure–emission relationship, revealing that emission originates from intermolecular through‐space interactions (TSI).

Tailoring the Morphology of Cellulose Nanocrystals via Controlled Aggregation [PDF]
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are bioderived nanoparticles that can be isolated from various sources of natural cellulose via acid hydrolysis. However, the link between particle morphological characteristics and their ensemble behavior is poorly understood, partly because of the difficulties in controlling the CNC morphology during their extraction ...

Recent Advances in PBAT (Nano) Composite Materials for Food Packaging: A Comprehensive Review
Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) is the most commonly used plastic. PBAT‐based (nano) composites provide a lot of potential as food wrapping. The preparation of plastics based on PBAT composites is described. PBAT materials' distinctive properties lead to suitability for application in food packaging.

Tuning the morphology of aerosolised cellulose nanocrystals via controlled aggregation [PDF]
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are polycrystalline, rod-shaped nanoparticles isolated from cellulose, which have attracted increasing attention for a wide variety of applications. While there has been significant research into CNCs in suspensions, hydrogels and films, there have been remarkably few studies that investigated their properties during and ...
