Nematic Liquid-Crystal Colloids

open access: yes, 2017
This article provides a concise review of a new state of colloidal matter called nematic liquid-crystal colloids. These colloids are obtained by dispersing microparticles of different shapes in a nematic liquid crystal that acts as a solvent for the ...

Advances in Solution‐Processed Textile Triboelectric Nanogenerators: Ink Formation, Processing Strategies, Applications, and Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Advanced ink systems for solution‐processed textile triboelectric nanogenerators are systematically summarized, spanning conductive, tribo‐negative, and tribo‐positive layers. By connecting ink chemistry, deposition methods, and device function, the present review reveals the key governing principles of solution development and highlights practical ...

Effects of co-present mineral colloids on the transport of microplastics in porous media: The key role of hydrochemical and hydrodynamic conditions

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Co-present mineral colloids affect the transport and distribution of microplastics (MPs) in porous media, however, the transport mechanism remains unclear.

Sedimentation profiles of charged colloids: Entropic lift and charge separation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present Molecular Dynamics simulations and Poisson-Boltzmann theory of sedimentation equilibrium of suspensions of charged colloids, treated at the level of the primitive model, including the co- and counterions (microions) explicitly.

Myogenic Fusogen‐Engineered Lipid Nanoparticles Enhance mRNA Delivery in Skeletal Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a biomimetic strategy of engineering full‐length Myomaker, a muscle‐specific fusogen, into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to harness the native myoblast fusion capability for skeletal muscle mRNA delivery. The resulting Mymk‐LNPs enhance transfection in differentiating myocytes and enable Cre‐mediated reporter activation in injured ...

A Holistic Platform Approach for Developing Robust Pulmonary mRNA Delivery: Integrating Novel Phenolic Acid‐Derived Ionizable Lipids and Device Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An integrated pulmonary mRNA delivery platform combining novel biodegradable syringic acid‐derived ionizable lipids, design‐of‐experiments formulation optimization, and vibrating‐mesh nebulizer engineering enabled stable aerosolization and efficient lung delivery.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

Multivalent display of minimal Clostridium difficile glycan epitopes mimics antigenic properties of larger glycans

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Immunologically-active glycans are promising vaccine candidates but can be difficult to synthesize. Here, the authors show that pentavalent display of a minimal disaccharde epitope on a chemical scaffold can mimic a native C.

Decoupling the Size and Loading Effects in Silver Nanoparticles for Efficient Paired Carbon Dioxide and Formaldehyde Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We investigate size‐dependent CO selectivity on Ag nanoparticles, where optimized Ag loading achieves nearly 100% Faradaic Efficiency for CO at −100 mA·cm−2. In situ SERS and XPS reveal the crucial role of optimized loading in catalytic performance. The Ag/C catalyst further exhibits bifunctional activity, enabling efficient electrolysis of CO2 and ...
