Tunable Fabrication of 2D-Layered Magnesium Nanosilicates With Hemostatic Properties. [PDF]
Tunable 2D magnesium nanosilicates form bioactive protein coronas, support cellular internalization, and promote hemostatic activity. These nanoclays enable shear‐thinning gel formation and reduce clotting time and blood loss, highlighting their potential for wound‐management applications. Tunable fabrication of inorganic two‐dimensional (2D) nanoclays
