Abstract Recent advances in ordered porous materials, including metal‐organic (MOF) and covalent organic frameworks (COF), are set to revolutionize the strategies used for wastewater treatment. This is attributed large surface area, high crystallinity, structural tunability, thermal chemical stability, well‐defined structures of MOF COF. Despite distinctive properties exhibited by single system (either or COF), combination COF MOF, as a hybrid construct, offers remarkable opportunity achieve...
The growth of aerobic microbes at air-water interfaces typically leads to biofilm formation. Herein, a fermentative alternative that relies on oil-water support bacterial activity and aerotaxis is introduced. process uses under-liquid biofabrication by structuring nanocellulose (BNC) achieve tailorable architectures. Cellulose productivity in static conditions first evaluated using sets oil homologues, classified order polarity. oils are shown for their ability sustain BNC production...
Sulfonylurea herbicides are widely used at lower dosage for controlling broad-leaf weeds and some grasses in cereals economic crops. It is important to develop a highly efficient selective pretreatment method analyzing sulfonylurea herbicide residues environments samples from agricultural products based on magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). The MIPs were prepared by surface molecular imprinting technique especially using the vinyl-modified Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticle as supporting...
Abstract The rapid co‐assembly of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and a surfactant at the oil/water (O/W) interface is harnessed to develop new class soft materials comprising continuous, multilayer, interpenetrated, tubular structures. process uses microfluidic approach that enables interfacial complexation two‐phase systems, herein, termed as “liquid streaming” (LS). LS demonstrated general method design multifunctional specific hierarchical order morphology, conveniently controlled by...
Abstract Non‐equilibrium multiphase systems are formed by mixing two immiscible nanoparticle dispersions, leading to bicontinuous emulsions that template cryogels with interconnected, tortuous channels. Herein, a renewable, rod‐like biocolloid (chitin nanocrystals, ChNC) is used kinetically arrest morphologies. Specifically, it found ChNC stabilizes intra‐phase jammed at an ultra‐low particle concentration (as low as 0.6 wt.%), tailorable The synergistic effects of high aspect ratio,...
Interfacial assemblies formed by colloidal complexation are effective in multiphase stabilization, as shown structured liquids and Pickering emulgels. Herein, we demonstrate a type of biobased system that spontaneously stabilizes an organic phase continuous hydrogel phase. Specifically, triterpene extracted from bark (betulin, BE) is added to containing coniferous resin (rosin acid, diterpene). BE take part strong noncovalent interactions with the nanochitin dispersed aqueous (hydrogel)...
Chitin has a unique hierarchical structure, spanning the macro- and nanoscales, presents chemical characteristics that make it suitable component of multiphase systems. Herein, we elucidate colloidal interactions between partially deacetylated chitin nanocrystals (cationic ChNC) an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). We investigate charge neutralization association (electrophoretic mobility, surface tensiometry, quartz crystal microgravimetry) their role in stabilization...
As a result of fatigue and damage, the durability separation membranes remains major challenge for long-term use in multiphase systems, such as oily water emulsions. Here, we synthesize electrospun based on hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). The nanofibers form highly porous systems that are held together by crosslinking, allowing fast mass transport while achieving high tensile strength elongation at break. exhibit shape retention upon immersion...
Chitin nanofibrils (ChNF) sourced from discarded marine biomass are shown as effective stabilizers of carbon nanomaterials in aqueous media. Such stabilization is evaluated for nanotubes (CNT) considering spatial and temporal perspectives by using experimental (small-angle X-ray scattering, among others) theoretical (atomistic simulation) approaches. We reveal that the coassembly ChNF CNT governed hydrophobic interactions, while electrostatic repulsion drives colloidal hybrid ChNF/CNT...
Angle-dependent light reflection is a common phenomenon in nature, typically arising from the spatial arrangement of biological or mineral structures. Various strategies have been developed to replicate these assemblies, particularly achieve structural color through bottom-up self- and directed assembly. However, dynamic control remains significant challenge. In this study, we present TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers modified with magnetic nanoparticles (approximately 10 nm size) that...
