Abstract
High conductive and freeze-resistant hydrogels with adhesion function are ideal candidates for soft electronic devices. However, it remains a challenge to design appropriate conductive nanofillers to endow hydrogels with all these characteristics. Liquid metal (LM) exhibits exceptional electrical conductivity and convenient processability, rendering it a highly promising contender. Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were employed as the interfacial stabilizer in synthesizing stable CNFs encapsulated LM solutions. Then the lignin was further coated on the surface of CNFs-LM (LCL) to prepare lignin-coated hybrid hydrogels. The obtained LCL displayed outstanding water-dispersible stability and were promising conductive nanofillers for hydrogels. During the fabrication of poly N-(hydroxymethyl) acrylamide (PHA) hydrogels, the LM was dispersed into LM particles with smaller sizes, leading to highly conductive LCL-PHA hydrogels (0.38 S·m-1). The prepared LCL-PHA hydrogels exhibited exceptional mechanical properties, including a strain at a break of 134.6 %, stress at a break of 22.7 Kpa, and a toughness of 16.3 KJ·m-3. Additionally, the LCL-PHA hydrogels demonstrated favorable electrical conductivity and adhesion. Notably, even after being subjected to freezing at -20 °C for 24 h, they remained suitable for effective real-time monitoring of all types of human activities, demonstrating superior environmental stability.

Tunable poly(lauryl methacrylate) surface grafting via SI-ATRP on a one-pot synthesized cellulose nanofibril macroinitiator core as a shear-thinning rheology modifier and drag reducer. RSC Adv 2023; 13:26089-26101.

Abstract
The optimally one-pot synthesized 2-bromoproponyl esterified cellulose nanofibril (Br-CNF) has been validated as a robust macroinitiator for self-surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) of lauryl methacrylate (LMA) in tunable graft lengths and high conversions of up to 92.7%. SI-ATRP of LMA surface brushes on Br-CNF followed first order kinetics in lengths at up to 46 degree of polymerization (DP) based on mass balance or 31 DP by solution-state 1H NMR in DMSO-d6. With increasing PLMA graft lengths, Br-CNF-g-PLMA cast films exhibited increasing hydrophobicity with water contact angles from 80.9° to 110.6°. The novel Br-CNF-g-PLMA exhibited dual shear thinning behavior of the Br-CNF core as evident by n < 1 flow behavior index and drag reducing properties of PLMA grafts with increased viscosity at up to 21 071×. Br-CNF-g-PLMA with 46 DP could be fully dispersed in silicon pump oil to function as a drag reducer to enhance viscosity up to 5× at 25, 40, and 55 °C. The novel macroinitiator capability of Br-CNF in SI-ATRP of vinyl monomers and the bottlebrush-like LMA surface grafted Br-CNF as highly effective viscosity modifier and drag reducer further demonstrate the versatile functionality of Br-CNF beyond hydrophobic coatings and reactive polyols previously reported.

Abstract
High conductive and transparent hydrogels with adhesion function are ideal candidates for soft electronic devices. However, it remains a challenge to design appropriate conductive nanofillers to endow hydrogels with all these characteristics. The 2D MXene sheets are promising conductive nanofillers for hydrogels due to excellent electricity and water-dispersibility. However, MXene is quite susceptible to oxidation. In this study, polydopamine (PDA) was employed to protect the MXene from oxidation and meanwhile endow hydrogels with adhesion. However, PDA coated MXene (PDA@MXene) were easily flocculated from dispersion. 1D cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were employed as steric stabilizers to prevent the agglomeration of MXene during the self-polymerization of dopamine. The obtained PDA coated CNC-MXene (PCM) sheets display outstanding water-dispersible and anti-oxidation stability and are promising conductive nanofillers for hydrogels. During the fabrication of polyacrylamide hydrogels, the PCM sheets were partially degraded into PCM nanoflakes with smaller size, leading to transparent PCM-PAM hydrogels. The PCM-PAM hydrogels can self-adhere to skin, and possess high transmittance of 75 % at 660 nm, superior electric conductivity of 4.7 S/m with MXene content as low as 0.1 % and excellent sensitivity. This study will facilitate the development of MXene based stable, water-dispersible conductive nanofillers and multi-functional hydrogels.

Abstract
A new ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor has been successfully constructed to quantitatively detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) using blackberry-like mesoporous bismuth-based nanospheres NaBiOF (NBOF NSs) inlaid with Pt nanodots (NDs) (BiPt NSs) as the antibody capture and signal-amplifying probe. The growth of Pt NDs inside the holes of NBOF NSs formed the nanozyme inlay outside NBOF NSs, greatly increasing the specific surface area and exposure of the catalytic active sites by minimizing the particle size of the Pt to nanodot scale. Such a blackberry-shaped heterojunction structure of BiPt NSs was well-suited to antibody capture and improved the catalytic performance of BiPt NSs in reducing H2O2, amplifying the signal, and yielding highly sensitive detection of CEA. The use of Au nanoparticle-modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Au@MWCNTs) as the electrode substrates significantly enhanced the electron transfer behavior over the electrode surface, further increasing the conductivity and sensitivity of the immunosensor. Remarkably, good compatibility with human body fluid was achieved using the newly developed BiPt-based immunosensor resulting from the favorable biocompatibility and stability of both BiPt NSs and Au@MWCNTs. Benefiting from the double signal amplification strategy and the high biocompatibility, the immunosensor responded linearly to CEA in a wide range from 50 fg/mL to 100 ng/ml with an extremely low detection limit of 3.52 fg/mL (S/N = 3). The excellent detection properties of this new immunosensor were evidenced by the satisfactory selectivity, reproducibility, and stability obtained, as well as the reliable and precise determination of CEA in actual human blood samples. This work provides a new strategy for the early clinical diagnosis of cancer. Novel blackberry-like mesoporous NaBiOF nanospheres with Pt nanodot inlay were successfully usedto construct a sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor for the ultra-sensitive detection ofcarcinoembryonic antigen in human blood plasma based on a remarkable signal amplification strategy.

Abstract
Grafting of polymer brush (assembly of polymer chains tethered to the substrate by one end) is emerging as one of the most viable approach to alter the surface of inorganic nanomaterials. Inorganic nanomaterials despite their intrinsic functional superiority, their applications remain restricted due to their incompatibility with organic or biological moieties vis-à-vis agglomeration issues. To overcome such a shortcoming, polymer brush modified surfaces of inorganic nanomaterials have lately proved to be of immense potential. For example, polymer brush-modified inorganic nanomaterials can act as efficient substrates/platforms in biomedical applications, ranging from drug-delivery to protein-array due to their integrated advantages such as amphiphilicity, stimuli responsiveness, enhanced biocompatibility, and so on. In this review, the current state of the art related to polymer brush-modified inorganic nanomaterials focusing, not only, on their synthetic strategies and applications in biomedical field but also the architectural influence of polymer brushes on the responsiveness properties of modified nanomaterials have comprehensively been discussed and its associated future perspective is also presented. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Nanoscale Systems in Biology.

Abstract
2-Bromopropionyl bromide esterified cellulose nanofibrils (Br-CNFs) facilely synthesized from one-pot esterification of cellulose and in situ ultrasonication exhibited excellent N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) dispersibility and reactivity to partially replace either chain extender or soft segment diol in the stoichiometrically optimized syntheses of polyurethanes (PUs). PUs polymerized with Br-CNF to replace either 11 mol% 1,4-butadiol chain extender OHs or 1.8 mol% polytetramethylene ether glycol OHs, i.e., 1.5 or 0.3 wt% Br-CNF in PUs, exhibited an over 3 times increased modulus, nearly 4 times higher strength, and a 50% increase in strain. In either role, the experimental modulus exceeding those predicted by the Halpin-Tsai model gave evidence of the stoichiometrically optimized covalent bonding with Br-CNF, while the improved strain was attributed to increased hydrogen-bonding interactions between Br-CNF and the soft segment. These new Br-CNFs not only offer novel synthetic strategies to incorporate nanocelluloses in polyurethanes but also maximize their reinforcing effects via their versatile polyol reactant and cross-linking roles, demonstrating promising applications in the synthesis of other polymers.

Abstract
Hydrophobic polymer-grafted cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were produced via surface-initiated atom-transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) in two different solvents to examine the role of reaction media on the extent of surface modification. Poly(butyl acrylate)-grafted CNCs were synthesized in either dimethylformamide (DMF) (D-PBA-g-CNCs) or toluene (T-PBA-g-CNCs) alongside a free polymer from a sacrificial initiator. The colloidal stability of unmodified CNCs, initiator-modified CNCs, and PBA-g-CNCs in water, DMF, and toluene was evaluated by optical transmittance. The enhanced colloidal stability of initiator-modified CNCs in DMF led to improved accessibility to initiator groups during polymer grafting; D-PBA-g-CNCs had 30 times more grafted chains than T-PBA-g-CNCs, determined by thermogravimetric and elemental analysis. D-PBA-g-CNCs dispersed well in toluene and were hydrophobic with a water contact angle of 124° (for polymer grafts > 13 kDa) compared to 25° for T-PBA-g-CNCs. The cellulose crystal structure was preserved, and individual nanoparticles were retained when grafting was carried out in either solvent. This work highlights that optimizing CNC colloidal stability prior to grafting is more crucial than solvent-polymer compatibility to obtain high graft densities and highly hydrophobic CNCs via SI-ATRP.

Hairy materials can act as a sort of scaffold for the fabrication of functional hybrid composites. In this work, silica nanospheres modified with covalently grafted poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VP) brushes, namely, "hairy" silica spheres, were utilized as a support for the anchorage of metal nanoparticles (MNPs), thus resulting in the hierarchical SiO2@P4VP/MNP structure. In this triple-phase boundary heteronanostructure, the SiO2-supported MNPs are well stabilized by the P4VP matrix to avoid aggregation and leaching. These SiO2@P4VP/MNP nanocomposites exhibit good catalytic activity in the reductive degradation of organic dyes, i.e., 4-nitrophenol and rhodamine B and possess excellent stability and recyclability for five successive cycles.

Abstract
( E)-4-[2-(Pyridin-4-yl)vinyl]benzaldehyde, containing both a 4-vinylpyridine and an aldehyde functionality, is utilized to develop new, highly conjugated chalcone compounds and a bis-Schiff base azine compound. The chalcone-containing compounds are further explored for their protonation, methylation and silver(I) coordination chemistry using the pyridine moiety. In parallel, a cyano-containing analogue, ( E)-4-[2-(pyridin-4-yl)vinyl]benzonitrile is also synthesized and studied for its silver(I) coordination chemistry. These new compounds are fully characterized by mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques. The methylated product of ( E)-1-(9-anthryl)-3-{4-[2-(pyridin-4-yl)vinyl]phenyl}prop-2-en-1-one and a silver complex of ( E)-4-[2-(pyridin-4-yl)vinyl]benzonitrile are structurally determined by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) gold nanoshell was prepared using a polymer-coated CNC as a template. A seed-mediated shell growth approach (ex situ) was employed, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of two sizes were prepared, and the effect of the size of AuNP on the shell quality (smoothness, evenness, and continuity) was elucidated. Additionally, a novel one-pot synthesis approach (in situ) was evaluated for the preparation of the gold nanoshell, where polymer-coated CNCs with adsorbed ascorbic acid were used to reduce Au ions to form a metallic gold shell on CNC. The surface coverage was manipulated by adding different amounts of plating solutions. The formation and morphology of gold nanoshells were evaluated by zeta potential measurements, dynamic light scattering, UV-vis spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The catalytic performance of the CNC-gold nanostructures for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) was governed by the surface area of gold shells.

Abstract
The high catalytic activity of membrane-binding gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) makes its application in oxidation or reduction an attractive challenge. Herein, surface-functionalized bacterial cellulose (BC-poly(HEMA)) was successfully prepared with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) as monomers via the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) method. BC-poly(HEMA) was further utilized as not only reducing agent but also carrier for uniform distribution of the AuNPs in the diameter of about 8 nm on the membrane surface during the synthesis stage. The synthesized AuNPs/BC-poly(HEMA) exhibited excellent catalytic activity and reusability for reducing 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from NaBH4. The results proved that the catalytic performance of AuNPs/BC-poly(HEMA) was affected by the surrounding temperature and pH, and AuNPs/BC-poly(HEMA) maintained the extremely high catalytic activity of AuNPs/BC-poly(HEMA) even after 10 reuses. In addition, no 4-NP was detected in the degradation solution after being stored for 45 days. The reusable catalyst prepared by this work shows a potential industrial application prospect.

Abstract
Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) is a powerful tool that allows for the synthesis of organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterials with high potential applications in many disciplines. This review presents synthetic achievements and modifications of nanoparticles via SI-ATRP described in literature last decade. The work mainly focuses on the research development of silica, gold and iron polymer-grafted nanoparticles as well as nature-based materials like nanocellulose. Moreover, typical single examples of nanoparticles modification, i.e., ZnO, are presented. The organic-inorganic hybrid systems received according to the reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) approach with drastically reduced catalyst complex concentration indicate a wide range of applications of materials including biomedicine and microelectronic devices.

Abstract
A practical and sustainable method to prepare polymeric hollow microcapsules (PHMs) using cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) stabilized Pickering emulsion polymerization was developed. Pristine CNCs hydrolyzed from wood pulp are hydrophilic and could be employed as emulsifiers to prepare oil-in-water (O/W) Pickering emulsions. The O/W Pickering emulsions were used as templates for the Pickering emulsion polymerization of hydrophobic monomers inside the emulsion droplets. The crosslinked hydrophobic polymers phase separated and partitioned to the interface of the Pickering emulsion, leading to the formation of hydrophobic PHMs. Correspondingly, cinnamate modified CNCs with less surface hydrophilicity were employed as emulsifiers to obtain water-in-oil (W/O) inverse Pickering emulsions, which were then used as templates for inverse Pickering emulsion polymerization of hydrophilic monomers to prepare hydrophilic PHMs. Therefore, both hydrophobic and hydrophilic PHMs could be obtained via this approach. Herein, polystyrene, poly(4-vinylpyridine), and poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) hollow microcapsules were prepared as models, where the size, crosslinking density, shell structure and stimuli-responsive properties of PHMs could be tuned by varying the synthesis parameters.

Abstract
The PVP and its derivatives have been broadly applied in polymers, organic
syntheses, and catalysis processes. The crosslinked PVP is a well-known polymer support
for numerous reagents and catalysts. Cross-linked PVPs are commercially available polymers
and have attracted much attention over the past due to their interesting properties
such as the facile functionalization, high accessibility of functional groups, being nonhygroscopic,
easy to prepare, easy filtration, and swelling in many organic solvents. A
brief explanation of the reported applications of PVPs in different fields followed by the
discussion on the implementation of methodologies for catalytic efficiency of PVP-based
reagents in the organic synthesis is included. The aim is to summarize the literature under
a few catalytic categories and to present each as a short scheme involving reaction conditions.
In the text, discussions on the synthesis and the structural determination of some typical polymeric reagents
are presented, and the mechanisms of some organic reactions are given. Where appropriate, advantages
of reagents in comparison with the previous reports are presented. This review does not include patent literature.

Abstract
A highly effective, stable and reusable flow microreactor was developed by utilizing the environmentally sustainable porous monolithic cellulose based on a facile temperature induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The obtained microreator could be applied to efficiently and continuously catalysing the reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol (an important reaction in water treatment) without any post-treatment or regeneration of catalysts. Moreover, the monolith overcame the brittleness of the crystalline cellulose and showed a good mechanical resilience, suggesting a great potential for the practical application in severe environment. Compared with previous reported Pd supported catalytic systems, this microreactor exhibited extremely high catalytic efficiency (turnover frequency, TOF = 4660 h-1, almost 4 times higher than that of cellulose nanocrystals supported catalyst) and long-term stability. This work provided a new strategy to construct highly effective and reusable metal NPs involved catalytic system by utilizing biodegradable cellulose materials.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have found a wide range of biomedical and environmental monitoring applications (viz. drug delivery, diagnostics, biosensing, bio-imaging, theranostics, and hazardous chemical sensing) due to their excellent optoelectronic and enhanced physico-chemical properties. The modulation of these properties is done by functionalizing them with the synthesized AuNPs with polymers, surfactants, ligands, drugs, proteins, peptides, or oligonucleotides for attaining the target specificity, selectivity and sensitivity for their various applications in diagnostics, prognostics, and therapeutics. This review intends to highlight the contribution of such AuNPs in state-of-the-art ventures of diverse biomedical applications. Therefore, a brief discussion on the synthesis of AuNPs has been summarized prior to comprehensive detailing of their surface modification strategies and the applications. Here in, we have discussed various ways of AuNPs functionalization including thiol, phosphene, amine, polymer and silica mediated passivation strategies. Thereafter, the implications of these passivated AuNPs in sensing, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), bioimaging, drug delivery, and theranostics have been extensively discussed with the a number of illustrations.

Abstract
Triblock copolymers poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA-b-PEO-b-PMMA) with designed molecular weight of PMMA and PEO blocks were synthesized via the activator regenerated by electron transfer (ARGET) atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of MMA. The Br-terminated Br-PEO-Br with the molecular weights of 20k and 100k were used as macroinitiators. ARGET ATRP was performed with ppm level amount CuBr2 as the catalyst and ascorbic acid as the reducing agent to overcome the sensitivity to oxygen in a traditional ATRP. The molecular weight of the PMMA block was manipulated by changing the molar ratio of monomers to the Br-PEO-Br macroinitiators. The synthesis of PMMA-b-PEO-b-PMMA and its structure was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and 1H NMR, and the molecular weight of the PMMA block was determined by 1H NMR. Aqueous solutions of PMMA-b-PEO-b-PMMA were prepared by solvent-exchange, and their microstructures were examined by tensiometry, static light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy. The effects of molecular weight of the PMMA and PEO blocks on the microstructure were elucidated.

Abstract
In this present work, a thermoresponsive and recyclable catalytic system was prepared by grafting poly( N-isopropylacrylamide)- co-poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PNIPAM- co-PGM) to a cellulose sponge, which was reinforced by polydopamine (PDA) and (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTMS). Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) were loaded via in situ reduction of HAuCl4 with PDA. Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis results revealed that the Au NPs (<10 nm) were homogenously dispersed on the surface of the sponge. Catalytic experiments with sponges prepared without PNIPAM- co-PGM demonstrated an increased reaction rate when the temperature of the reaction medium was elevated. However, in the presence of PNIPAM-i co-PGM in the sponges, the reaction rate was decreased when the reaction temperature was higher than the lower critical solution temperature of the polymer. The sponge could be conveniently separated from the reactions and reused up to 22 cycles.

Abstract
High internal phase emulsion polymerization was adopted for preparing macroporous polymeric monoliths, polyHIPE–Br (PHIPE–Br). Macroporous PHIPE–Br was used as the initiator to initiate the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), resulting in a dense coating of polymers on the PHIPE surface and PHIPE–PGMA was obtained. Through a ring-opening addition reaction with TETA, a surface amino-polymer modified functional macroporous PHIPE–PGMA–TETA, was prepared conveniently. Gold nanoparticles could be easily in situ prepared and immobilized on the surface of PHIPE–PGMA–TETA. Characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), EDX-mapping and TGA showed that PHIPE–PGMA–TETA was immobilized by the gold nanoparticles, and presented good catalytic properties. Moreover, the macroporous catalytic material, PHIPE–PGMA–TETA/Au NPs, presented recyclable catalytic performance without any decrease in activity. The materials and methods to form the monoliths and immobilize metal nanoparticles were simple and efficient, thus, opening new possibilities for highly porous PHIPE in catalysis applications. The macroporous material PHIPE–PGMA–TETA/Au NPs has an open-cell and porous structure, and can effectively catalyze the reduction of 4-nitrophenol.![]()
