Rotating Liquid Marble Microreactors for Enhanced Enzymatic Reactions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Dynamic magnetic liquid marbles (LMs), stabilized by hydrophobic magnetic proteinaceous colloidosomes, function as effective microreactors for enzymatic processes. Precise magnetic manipulation allows for the rotation of these LMs, enhancing the efficiency of the enzymatic cascade reaction both at the air/water interface and within biphasic enzyme ...

Fluoride‐Free Molten Salt Hydrate‐Assisted Synthesis of MXene in Air Down to 150 °C
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A novel low‐temperature shielded salt (LSS) approach enables the synthesis of MXenes in air at temperatures as low as 150 °C using MgCl2·6H2O/LiCl. This method demonstrates successful etching of challenging MXenes like Cr2CTx and Nb2CTx through the synergistic effects of Li+ ions and salt hydrate phase changes, while eliminating the need for inert ...

A Universal Way to Manipulate Droplet via Light‐Fueled Thermocapillary Convection
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A non‐contact light‐induced droplet manipulation strategy fueled by mid‐infrared (MIR) light irradiation is introduced. No additional additives and/or complex substrate are required. Here, thermocapillary convection, directly generated by temperature gradient at outer surface of droplet via localized surface heating, plays a key role to propel the ...
