Nanoconfinement and the Strength of Biopolymers

Annual Review of Biophysics, 2013
This review examines size effects observed in the mechanical strength of biopolymers that are organized in microstructures such as fibrils, layered composites, or particle nanocomposites. We review the most important aspects that connect nanoconfinement of basic material constituents at critical length scales to the mechanical performance of the ...

Nanoconfinement-mediated cancer theranostics

Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2020
Despite various therapeutic or diagnostic developments, cancer is still one of the most lethal diseases due to insufficiently adequate treatments and the delay of the early stage of disease detection. An image-guided drug delivery system (IGDDS), as a real-time noninvasive imaging assessment of therapeutic response, has the strong potential to improve ...

Superpermittivity of nanoconfined water

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2015
Nowadays, it is well established that the physical properties of confined liquids strongly differ from those in bulk phase. While dynamical and structural properties were strongly explored, dielectric properties are poorly studied despite their importance in the understanding and the modelling of molecular mechanism in a number of nano-applications ...

Nanoconfined Ionic Liquids

Chemical Reviews, 2016
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely investigated as novel solvents, electrolytes, and soft functional materials. Nevertheless, the widespread applications of ILs in most cases have been hampered by their liquid state. The confinement of ILs into nanoporous hosts is a simple but versatile strategy to overcome this problem. Nanoconfined ILs constitute a

Chemical reactivity under nanoconfinement

Nature Nanotechnology, 2020
Confining molecules can fundamentally change their chemical and physical properties. Confinement effects are considered instrumental at various stages of the origins of life, and life continues to rely on layers of compartmentalization to maintain an out-of-equilibrium state and efficiently synthesize complex biomolecules under mild conditions.
