Chitosan shows effective nucleic acid delivery. To understand the influence of chitosan’s molecular weight, dose, payload, and hyaluronic acid coating on in vivo toxicity, immune stimulation, biodistribution and efficacy, precisely characterize...

Metal Fused Filament Fabrication provides a simple and cost-efficient way to produce dense metal parts with a homogenous microstructure. However, current limitations include the use of hazardous and expensive organic solvents during debinding for fle...

In response to heightened environmental awareness, various industries, including the civil and automotive sector, are contemplating a shift towards the utilization of more sustainable materials. For adhesive bonding, this necessitates the exploration...

The exploitation of high-performance membranes selective for propylene is important for developing energy-efficient propylene/propane (C3H6/C3H8) separation technologies. Although metal–organic frameworks with a molecular sieving property have...

Polymer coatings are widely used in industries for protection, decoration, and specific applications, typically including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to achieve low viscosity. The growing environmental concerns and the anticipated limits on fos...

During the cyclic injection and extraction process in underground storage wellbores, the cement sheath undergoes loading and unloading stress cycles. In this study, we investigated the mechanical properties of latex-modified cement stone (LMCS), wide...

Styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) waste from the shoe industry was repurposed to produce polypropylene (PP)-based compounds, with the aim of evaluating their antistatic potential. Styrene–ethylene–propylene (SEP) was added as a compati...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a broadly utilized natural nanofiber produced by microbial fermentation, but its high-cost and low-yield production and limited function still hinder its application. Here, we used the spraying-assisted biosynthesis method...

In this paper, we developed a paper-based fluorescent sensor using functional composite materials composed of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) coated with molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for the selective detection of tetracycline (TC) in water. GQ...

The enhancement of the electromagnetic interference shielding efficiency (EMI SE) for conductive polymer composites (CPCs) has garnered increasing attention. The shielding performance is influenced by conductivity, which is dependent on the establish...
