Understanding the Roles of Microstructure and Viscoelasticity of Soft Ionic Elastomer for Super‐Capacitive Pressure Sensors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By engineering the PVA/H3PO4 ionic elastomer with optimized viscoelasticity and a height‐graded microstructure, the pressure sensor achieves a broad linear range up to 2000 kPa and a high sensitivity of 2.70 nF/kPa. These advancements underscore its strong potential for wearable electronics, including bio‐signal detection, health monitoring, and ...

3D‐Printed Architected Anisotropic Channels for Ultrafast Solar‐Driven Interfacial Evaporation via Localized Thermal Management and Water Layer Structuring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed anisotropic channel evaporator integrates directional geometry with aligned titanium oxide, boron nitride, and chitosan networks to coordinate photon absorption, heat localization, and water transport. Phonon‐guided thermal pathways and interfacial water structuring enable ultrahigh evaporation rates and long‐term salt‐resistant solar ...

Piperazine‐Functionalized Nanoparticles Enable Oral Insulin Delivery in Obese Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biologics have gained prominence as a rapidly advancing therapeutic modality for a diverse spectrum of medical conditions. Nonetheless, they are predominantly administered parenterally due to poor absorption through the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, repeated injections of biologics such as insulin cause injection pain, leading to dose ...

Designing Scalable Mechano‐Virucidal Nanostructured Acrylic Surfaces for Enhanced Viral Inactivation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Can a surface be designed to physically break viruses? This study explores how nanoscale geometry—specifically the spacing of tiny pillars—can determine whether viruses remain intact or rupture. Using flexible acrylic and a scalable fabrication process, the authors develop nanopillared, transparent surfaces that show strong antiviral activity without ...
