Polyzwitterionic Organohydrogel and Soft Composite with Tunable Sol–Gel Properties Enabling On‐Demand Functionalization with Colloids

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Poly[2‐(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl‐(3‐sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide‐based organohydrogels are formed via nonsolvent‐induced gelation, featuring tunable viscoelasticity. Functional fillers (MXene nanosheets, magnetic NdFeB microparticles) enable electrical, magnetic, and mechanical responsiveness for applications in mechano‐tunable electromagnetic ...

Engineering Charge Heterogeneity in COF/Graphene Hydrogels for Salt‐Resistant Solar Evaporation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hetero‐charged COF/graphene hydrogel (HCG‐1) with spatially separated cationic and anionic domains is engineered to achieve salt‐resistant solar evaporation. This unique charge architecture regulates Na⁺ and Cl− distribution, promotes intermediate‐water formation and effectively suppresses salt crystallization, enabling stable solar evaporation in ...

Biomimetic Adaptive Hydrothermal Balance Fabric‐Based Dual‐Interface Solar Evaporator for Efficient and Stable Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines the biological structure of octopuses with the “3D structure” of spacer fabrics to fabricate a dual‐interface solar evaporator with adaptive hydrothermal balance. Water adaptation is achieved through the differentiated design of the upper and lower layers, and dynamic hydrothermal balance is realized by dynamically regulating the ...
