Nanofibers: Friend or Foe? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Since the early 1990s nanofibers, particularly those of a carbonaceous content [1] have received heightened interest due to their advantageous physico-chemical characteristics (e.g., high strength, stiffness, semi-conductor, increased thermal conductivity

Metachromatic Butterfly Bile Pigments for Multi‐Level Optical Security Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐derived optical security materials are manufactured by embedding butterfly‐based pigments in polymer films. Tunable color and fluorescence responses arise from concentration‐controlled metachromasy, enabling spatially encoded patterns with distinct visible, UV‐active, and spectral signatures.

Hierarchical Cellulose/MXene Aerogel Films with Coral‐Like Polyaniline Skin for Absorption‐Led Broadband EMI Shielding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A regenerated cellulose/MXene aerogel film is engineered with a surface‐confined, coral‐like polyaniline skin to intensify interfacial polarization while a porous, percolated conductive core is retained. By molten salt hydrate processing and interfacially confined oxidative polymerization, PANI growth is localized at the outer surface and internal ...

Cellulose and xylan nanofiber mats via electrospinning: Lignin-enhanced properties in wood-inspired biocomposites

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
Nanofiber mats were fabricated by combining cellulose, xylan, and organosolv lignin. The biopolymers, and a small amount (15 wt. %) of polyethylene oxide, were dissolved in a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid and trifluoroacetic anhydride, then blended in ...
