Ion Valency as a Molecular Switch for Salt‐Resistant Underwater Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Monovalent K+ ions weaken adhesion by forming K+‐π complexes with weak bridging capacity. In contrast, multivalent cations like Y3+ enhance adhesion by forming stable π‐cation‐π bridging networks, which are resistant to salt and capable of compensating for the loss of native π–π and NH3+‐π interactions.

Molecular Nanosolids Generation by Vapor Jet Desublimation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A single‐step, solvent‐free approach to fabricate nanoparticles of small organic molecules is demonstrated, using a nitrogen‐propelled vapor jet, enabling tunable particle morphology and crystallinity. Pharmaceutical, flavoring, dyeing and electronics‐relevant molecules are used, demonstrating process generalizability.
