Functional Differentiation of Type II and Type I Collagen Articular Models in Synovial Fluid Film Formation and Recombinant Equine Lubricin Retention

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Collagen II coatings support the formation of synovial fluid nanofilms, while collagen I coatings do not. Both bind recombinant equine lubricin similarly. These findings may help explain articular cartilage surface joint dysfunction, inform biomaterial design for synovial joint repair, and expand on lubricin‐based osteoarthritis therapies.

Freeze‐Thaw Engineered Dual Conductivity Polymeric Binder Stabilizes Large‐Volume‐Change Lithium–Ion Battery Anodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work developed an all‐aqueous freeze‐thaw strategy to create a dual‐conductive PVA/P3KBT binder for high volume‐change lithium–ion battery anodes. The resulting binder system strengthens the electrode structure, supports ion and electron transport, and accommodates repeated volume changes, reducing cracking and improving long‐term cycling ...

Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Polymerization-Induced Self-Assembly of Homopolymer and Diblock Copolymer: A Facile Approach for Preparing Polymer Nano-Objects with Higher-Order Morphologies

, 2017
Polymerization-induced self-assembly of homopolymer and diblock copolymer using a binary mixture of small chain transfer agent (CTA) and macromolecular chain transfer agent (macro-CTA) is reported. With this system, homopolymer and diblock copolymer were

Exchange‐Coupled Two‐Dimensional MOFs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene mediates ferromagnetic coupling between two‐dimensional metal‐organic frameworks and cobalt. Fe‐tetracyanobenzene develops a remanent magnetic response whose orientation follows the cobalt magnetization direction and persists up to room temperature, whereas Ni‐TCNB remains only field‐polarized.

Improving rate performance of FeC2O4/rGO composites on lithium storage via single-polymerization‐induced electrostatic self‐assembly

Electrochemistry Communications
Based on the wide interlayer distance for ions diffusion, iron (II) oxalate exhibits excellent lithium storage ability. However, the local deposition of metallic nanoparticles of Fe0 leads to low electrochemical reactivity, which hinders the actual ...
