DENTA: A Dual Enzymatic Nanoagent for Self‐Activating Tooth Whitening and Biofilm Disruption

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The nanoapatite with dual enzymes (DENTA) accumulates in dentinal tubules, reducing hypersensitivity caused by dental nerve exposure and facilitating continuous ROS generation through salivary glucose for effective, long‐term whitening. The dentin structures remain non‐destructive due to the low concentration of ROS, demonstrating excellent cell ...

Ionic Control of Microstructure and Lubrication in Charged, Physically Cross‐Linked Hydrogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, charged, physically cross‐linked poly(methacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) hydrogels stabilized by a short‐range attractive, long‐range repulsive potential is investigated. This work uncovers how salt addition alters not only swelling, but also the microstructure and dynamics, near‐surface stiffness and charge, and ultimately, its lubricity. Salts

Conductive hydrogel composites with autonomous self-healing properties

Soft Matter, 2020
Functional copolymer decorated with pyrene and phenylboronicacid groups was synthesized and utilized to evenly disperse SWCNTs in water. Additionally, a self-healing and conductive hydrogel was prepared by dynamic cross-linking of the functional copolymer, PVA and SWCNTs in aqueous solution.
