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 ...

Life‐Like Ferrous Oxide Microspheres from Kombucha
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Kombucha bacterial cellulose, sodium alginate, and ferrous nitrate self‐assemble into membrane‐enclosed iron oxide microspheres. These microspheres bud daughter vesicles, sustain 24‐h electrochemical oscillations, and filter theta‐band signals.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Amphiphilic non‐isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) coatings containing reactive hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and hydrophilic methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG) prepolymers for marine antifouling (AF) and fouling‐release (FR) applications were investigated. The coatings were evaluated with a set of representative marine foulants.

Bilayered PEDOT:PSS–Collagen Scaffolds as Functional Architectures for Tissue Engineering
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.A bilayered scaffold integrates collagen and PEDOT:PSS as distinct yet interconnected 3D matrices, preserving their fibrillar and conductive characteristics. Spatial compartmentalization enables independent tailoring of each domain while maintaining mechanical stability and compatibility with electrochemical monitoring, providing a multifunctional ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.By analyzing the thermal‐mechanical properties and molecular‐scale interactions in polyacrylamide (PAAM) hydrogels, this research demonstrates a rubber‐glass‐crystal phase transition under the combined stimuli of temperature and moisture. Because of these hybrid phase transitions, PAAM hydrogels exhibit shape memory behavior in thermal and moist ...

Cellulose Surface Modification Effects on Equilibrium and Non‐Equilibrium Wetting by Water
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Molecular dynamics simulations of nanometer‐sized water droplets spreading on cellulose substrates show strong effects from surface chemistry on both equilibrium contact angles and spreading dynamics. ABSTRACT Chemical modification is an important route to tuning interactions between nanocellulose and its surrounding media. Specifically, it affects the

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.When exposed to light of a defined wavelength, the photoisomerization of azobenzene chromophores leads to polymer reorientation, generating stresses that result in solvent‐facilitated localized delamination of the film from the substrate. Additionally, blisters that form spontaneously when exposed to an aqueous environment can be manipulated via ...
