Designing Scalable Mechano‐Virucidal Nanostructured Acrylic Surfaces for Enhanced Viral Inactivation
Can a surface be designed to physically break viruses? This study explores how nanoscale geometry—specifically the spacing of tiny pillars—can determine whether viruses remain intact or rupture. Using flexible acrylic and a scalable fabrication process, the authors develop nanopillared, transparent surfaces that show strong antiviral activity without ...

Non‐Equilibrium Synthesis Methods to Create Metastable and High‐Entropy Nanomaterials
ABSTRACT Stabilizing multiple elements within a single phase enables the creation of advanced materials with exceptional properties arising from their complex composition. However, under equilibrium conditions, the Hume–Rothery rules impose strict limitations on solid‐state miscibility, restricting combinations of elements with mismatched crystal ...

Sulfonated cellulose acetate (SCA) nanofiber membrane with zincophilic‐hydrophobic property is constructed on the surface of the Zn anode by the electrospinning technique to tune the 3D deposition behavior of Zn2+ by chemisorption and micro‐sized physical structure. The negatively‐charged groups of SCA nanofiber membrane form an electrostatic repulsion
