A Strategic Approach to Improving Interfacial Interactions in TPU/POSS Composites via Ball Milling of POSS

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Ball‐milling promotes uniform POSS dispersion in the TPU matrix, markedly improving the mechanical performance of TPU‐POSS composites. ABSTRACT We synthesized TPU/POSS composites through a two‐step process involving the ball milling of POSS to reduce its particle size, followed by in situ polymerization of TPU to reinforce the material.

Polycaprolactone/Gelatin and Polycaprolactone/MXene/Gelatin Composite Films for Biomedical Applications

Herein, we report the fabrication of composite films based on polycaprolactone (PCL), MXene, and gelatin prepared by solution casting intended for use e.g. as scaffold materials for biomedical engineering. Three different concentrations of gelatin derived from bovine, fish, and porcine skin were used to prepare the composites.

Investigation of a Polyamide 6 (PA6) and Polybutylene Succinate (PBS) Blend as Candidate Matrix for Self‐Healing Application

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
This illustration shows polyamide 6 (PA6) blended with 20–50% polybutylene succinate (PBS) by volume. The balance between tensile properties, fracture toughness and self‐healing capability is achieved in the 30% vol PBS blend. Thermal healing at 140°C results in 40% fracture toughness recovery in a blend containing 30% vol PBS.

Diverse reactivity of maleimides in polymer science and beyond

Polymer International, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 296-306, April 2025.
This mini‐review provides a thorough overview of maleimide chemistry, highlighting its diverse reactivity in polymer and materials science applications. Abstract Maleimides are remarkably versatile functional groups, capable of participating in homo‐ and copolymerizations, Diels–Alder and (photo)cycloadditions, Michael additions, and other reactions ...

Current Trends and Future Prospects of Integrating Electrospinning With 3D Printing Techniques for Mimicking Bone Extracellular Matrix Scaffolds

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1481-1504, 15 March 2025.
ABSTRACT This article presents a review of the recent findings on the combination of electrospun nanofibers and three‐dimensional (3D)‐printed structures for extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. We explore the synergy between electrospinning (ES), which produces highly porous, fibrous structures from materials like collagen

Laponite Network Controls FGF‐2 Release and Drives Functional Nerve Regeneration via 3D‐Printed Nerve Wrap Interfaces

Small Methods, EarlyView.
We developed a 3D‐printed nerve interface integrating a biomimetic nanocomposite hydrogel with sustained delivery of thermostable FGF‐2. The bioactive interface supports Schwann cell activity and myelination while providing a regenerative microenvironment.

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural
