Simple synthesis of self-assembled nacre-like materials with 3D periodic layers from nanochitin via hydrogelation and mineralization

Junhua Xu et al.

Summary: The study presents a bioinspired method for the synthesis of 3D structures that exhibit similar mechanical properties as natural materials. The structures are formed by introducing Ca2+ and PO43- ions into a nanochitin dispersion, followed by ammonia vapor diffusion. The resulting self-stratified assemblies demonstrate customizable 3D forms and excellent strength, making them suitable for various applications including biomedical implants and optical waveguides.

Fabrication of Cellulose-Graphite Foam via Ion Cross-linking and Ambient-Drying

Ruiliu Wang et al.

Summary: Conventional plastic foams made from fossil-fuel-derived polymers are difficult to biodegrade in nature. This study presents a fast and scalable method to prepare cellulose-graphite foams by cross-linking cellulose fibrils in a metal ions-containing solution, followed by ambient drying. The resulting foams exhibit low density, high compressive strength, and excellent water stability. The cross-linking effect of different metal ions is revealed through density functional theory, showing good agreement with experimental observations. This approach offers a sustainable route for low-cost, environmentally friendly, and scalable foam production for various applications.

Janus Biopolymer Sponge with Porous Structure Based on Water Hyacinth Petiole for Efficient Solar Steam Generation

Junying Li et al.

Summary: This study presents a sustainable Janus evaporator based on water hyacinth petiole (WHP) sponge for efficient solar steam generation. The WHP maintains its porous structure and has good water transport capability, and the WHP coated with carbon nanotubes/ethyl cellulose paste gains a good photothermal property. After hydrophobic modification, it exhibits high water repellency and good salt resistance.

Robust superhydrophilic attapulgite-based aligned aerogels for highly efficient and stable solar steam generation in harsh environments

Liang Song et al.

Summary: In this study, a high-content attapulgite-based aerogel with high mechanical strength was successfully prepared by chemically/physically cross-linking nano-fibrillated cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, and glutaraldehyde. The aerogels exhibited a three-dimensional macroporous structure, low thermal conductivity, and excellent light absorption ability, showing great potential for solar-driven evaporation and desalination applications in harsh environments.
