Abstract
Nanocrystal assembly into ordered structures provides mesostructural functional materials with a precise control that starts at the atomic scale. However, the lack of understanding on the self-assembly itself plus the poor structural integrity of the resulting supercrystalline materials still limits their application into engineered materials and devices. Surface functionalization of the nanobuilding blocks with organic ligands can be used not only as a means to control the interparticle interactions during self-assembly but also as a reactive platform to further strengthen the final material via ligand cross-linking. Here, we explore the influence of the ligands on superlattice formation and during cross-linking via thermal annealing. We elucidate the effect of the surface functionalization on the nanostructure during self-assembly and show how the ligand-promoted superlattice changes subsequently alter the cross-linking behavior. By gaining further insights on the chemical species derived from the thermally activated cross-linking and its effect in the overall mechanical response, we identify an oxidative radical polymerization as the main mechanism responsible for the ligand cross-linking. In the cascade of reactions occurring during the surface-ligands polymerization, the nanocrystal core material plays a catalytic role, being strongly affected by the anchoring group of the surface ligands. Ultimately, we demonstrate how the found mechanistic insights can be used to adjust the mechanical and nanostructural properties of the obtained nanocomposites. These results enable engineering supercrystalline nanocomposites with improved cohesion while preserving their characteristic nanostructure, which is required to achieve the collective properties for broad functional applications.

Abstract
In recent years, the world has faced the issue of antibiotic resistance. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a significant problem in various treatments and control of infections. Biocompatible materials with saturated fatty acids of different chain lengths (C8-C18) were studied as matrix formers of localized injectable vancomycin HCl (VCM)-loaded antisolvent-induced in situ forming matrices. The series of fatty acid-based in situ forming matrices showed a low viscosity (5.47-13.97 cPs) and pH value in the range of 5.16-6.78, with high injectability through a 27-G needle (1.55-3.12 N). The preparations exhibited low tolerance to high concentrations of KH2PO4 solution (1.88-5.42% v/v) and depicted an electrical potential change during phase transformation. Their phase transition and matrix formation at the microscopic and macroscopic levels depended on the chain length of fatty acids and solvent characteristics. The VCM release pattern depended on the nucleation/crystallization and solvent exchange behaviors of the delivery system. The 35% w/v of C12-C16 fatty acid-based in situ forming matrix prolonged the VCM release over seven days in which C12, C14, C16 -based formulation reached 56, 84, and 85% cumulative drug release at 7th day. The release data fitted well with Higuchi's model. The developed formulations presented efficient antimicrobial activities against standard S. aureus, MRSA, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Hence, VCM-loaded antisolvent-induced fatty acid-based in situ forming matrix is a potential local delivery system for the treatment of local Gram-positive infection sites, such as joints, eyes, dermis of surgery sites, etc., in the future.
