Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...

A Self‐Cleaning Solar Evaporator Based on MXene/Aramid Nanofiber Aerogels for Efficient Water Desalination

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study develops a self‐cleaning solar evaporator based on MXene‐coated aramid nanofiber aerogels for efficient desalination under high‐salinity conditions. The cylindrical evaporator combines strong photothermal conversion, capillary water transport, and self‐rotation triggered by salt accumulation.

Micropillar‐Engineered Hybrid Adhesive Patch for Surface‐Conformable and Directional Adhesion

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents a surface‐conformable hybrid adhesive integrating height‐optimized hexagonal micropillars with open‐rectangular cuts. The micropillars enhance rough‐surface contact and microscale crack arrest, while the cuts guide and reverse interfacial cracks for strong and directional adhesion. The multiscale architecture achieves robust pull‐off
