ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:31586-31600. [PMID: 39072135 PMCID: PMC11270726 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c01503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 06/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
This study endeavors to develop an injectable subdermal implant material tailored for soft tissue repair and enhancement. The material consists of a ceramic phase of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA), which is biocompatible, 20-60 μm in size, known for its biocompatibility and minimal likelihood of causing foreign body reactions, antigenicity, and minimal inflammatory response, dispersed in a carrier phase composed of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), glycerol, and water for injection. The gel formulation underwent comprehensive characterization via various analytical techniques. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was employed to identify crystalline phases and investigate the structural properties of ceramic particles, while thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was conducted to evaluate the thermal stability and decomposition behavior of the final formulation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was utilized to examine the surface morphology and particle size distribution, confirming the homogeneous dispersion of spherical CaHA particles within the matrix. SEM analysis revealed particle sizes ranging from approximately 20-60 μm. Elemental analysis confirmed a stoichiometric Ca/P ratio of 1.65 in the hydroxyapatite (HA) structure. Heavy metal content exhibited suitability for surgical implant use without posing toxicity risks. Rheological analysis revealed a storage modulus of 58.6 and 68.9 kPa and a loss modulus of 21.7 and 24.8 kPa at the frequencies of 2 and 5 Hz, respectively. 150 μL of sterilized CaHA/CMC was injected subcutaneously into rats and compared with a similar product, Crystalys, to assess its effects on soft tissues. Skin tissue samples of rats were collected at specific intervals throughout the study (30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 days), and examined histologically. Results demonstrated that CaHA/CMC gel led to a significant increase in dermal thickness, elastic fibers, and collagen density. Based on the findings, the formulated CaHA/CMC gel was found to be biocompatible, biodegradable, nonimmunogenic, nontoxic, safe, and effective, and represents a promising option for soft tissue repair and augmentation.

Abstract
To solve the problems of easy leakage and weak thermal conductivity of single-phase change material, in this experiment, cobalt/nitrogen-doped ZIF-67 derived carbon (CoN-ZIF-Cx) was constructed as the carrier material, and paraffin was used as the phase change core material to construct thermally enhanced shaped composite phase change materials (P0.6@CoN-ZIF-Cx). The composite PCMs were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, isothermal nitrogen adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier infrared spectroscopy, and their performance was evaluated using transient planar heat source techniques, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermal cycling tests. The results indicated that the impurities of the acid-washed porous carbon material were reduced and the loading of the paraffin was 60%, and the prepared P0.6@CoN-ZIF-Cx had an excellent thermal performance. Among them, P0.6@CoN-ZIF-C3 has the melting and crystallization enthalpy of 71.03 J g-1 and 68.81 J g-1. The thermal conductivity is 0.4127 W m-1 K-1, a 46.19% thermal conductivity improvement compared with pure paraffin. It still has favourable thermal storage capacity after 50 cycles without paraffin leakage during the phase transition.

Abstract
Abstract
Research on bionanocomposites has been developed, while its application as food packaging is still being explored. They are usually made from natural polymers such as cellulose acetate, chitosan (CS), and polyvinyl alcohol. Bionanocomposite materials can replace traditional non-biodegradable plastic packaging materials, enabling them to use new, high-performance, lightweight, and environmentally friendly composite materials. However, this natural polymer has a weakness in mechanical properties. Therefore, a composite system is needed that will improve the properties of the biodegradable food packaging. The aim of this mini-review is to demonstrate recent progress in the synthesis, modification, characterization, and application of bionanocomposites reported by previous researchers. The focus is on the preparation and characterization of CS-based bionanocomposites. The mechanical properties of CS-based food packaging can be improved by adding reinforcement from inorganic materials such as organoclay. Meanwhile, the anti-bacterial properties of CS-based food packaging can be improved by adding nanoparticles such as Ag and ZnO.

Abstract
Phase change materials (PCMs) for the charge and discharge of thermal energy at a nearly constant temperature are of interest for thermal energy storage and management, and porous materials are usually used to support PCMs for preventing the liquid leakage and shape instability during the phase change process. Compared with commonly used polymer matrices and porous carbons, mineral materials with naturally occurring porous structures have obvious advantages such as cost-saving and abundant resources. Attapulgite (ATP) is a clay mineral with natural porous structures, which can be used to contain PCMs for thermal energy storage. However, the poor compatibility between ATP and PCMs is a significant defect that has rarely been studied. Herein, a facile one-step organic modification method of ATP was developed and the chlorosilane-modified ATP (Si-ATP) possesses great hydrophobic and lipophilic properties. Three types of ATP with different compatibility and pore volumes were used as the supports and paraffin as the energy storage units to fabricate a series of form-stable PCMs (FSPCMs). The results showed that the shape-stabilized ability of Si-ATP for paraffin was significantly enhanced, and the Si-ATP supported FSPCM yielded an optimal latent heat of 83.7 J g−1, which was 64.4% higher than that of the pristine ATP based composite. Meanwhile, the thermal energy storage densities of the resulting FSPCMs were gradually increased with an increase in the pore volumes of the three supporting materials. These results may provide a strategy for preparing porous materials as containers to realize the shape stabilization of PCMs and improve the thermal energy storage densities of the resulting FSPCMs. A facile organic modification method of attapulgite was developedand it's supporting capacity for organic PCMs was significantly enhanced.![]()

Abstract
Phase-change materials (PCMs) play a key role in thermal energy storage owing to their high-energy storage density and small temperature fluctuation during the phase-transition stage. Polymers, either as a supporting material to prevent liquid leakage during the phase-change process or used with specific target, have been widely recognized in the fabrication of PCM composites. In the meantime, due to the continued demand for variety of PCMs, a single thermal energy storage function seems to be insufficient to meet these needs. Thanks to the good compatibility with PCMs and the structural adjustable properties of polymers, they have been broadly used as the second component in the multifunctional PCMs composite. In this Review, strategies for multifunctional PCMs supported by polymers and their potential energy applications, such as thermal energy harvesting and storage, shape memory, wearable devices, self-cleaning, and other forms of applications, are summarized comprehensively. The future research directions and challenges of multifunctional PCMs with polymers are also discussed.

Abstract
The emergence of COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected human health and world economies. According to WHO guidelines, continuous use of face mask is mandatory for personal protection for restricting the spread of bacteria and virus. Here, we report a 3-ply cotton-PLA-cotton layered biodegradable face-mask containing encapsulated phytochemicals in the inner-filtration layer. The nano-fibrous PLA filtration layer was fabricated using needleless electrospinning of PLA & phytochemical-based herbal-extracts. This 3-layred face mask exhibits enhanced air permeability with a differential pressure of 35.78 Pa/cm2 and superior bacterial filtration efficiency of 97.9% compared to conventional face masks. Close-packed mesh structure of the nano-fibrous mat results in effective adsorption of particulate matter, aerosol particles, and bacterial targets deep inside the filtration layer. The outer hydrophobic layer of mask exhibited effective blood splash resistance up to a distance of 30 cm, ensuring its utilization for medical practices. Computational analysis of constituent phytochemicals using the LibDock algorithm predicted inhibitory activity of chemicals against the protein structured bacterial sites. The computational analysis projected superior performance of phytochemicals considering the presence of stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and Arachidic acid exhibiting structural complementarity to inhibit targeted bacterial interface. Natural cotton fibers and PLA bio-polymer demonstrated promising biodegradable characteristics in the presence of in-house cow-dung based biodegradation slurry. Addition of jaggery to the slurry elevated the biodegradation performance, resulting in increment of change of weight from 07% to 12%. The improved performance was attributed to the increased sucrose content in biodegradation slurry, elevating the bacterial growth in the slurry. An innovative face mask has shown promising results for utilization in day-to-day life and medical frontline workers, considering the post-pandemic environmental impacts.

Abstract
The automotive industry is one of the most contaminant; for this reason, solutions in efficient matter has been proposed over the years. This research contributes to this subject by evaluating the thermal comfort in the internal air of a vehicle by using a 20 mm layer of a phase-change material attached to the rooftop interior of a car. The phase-change material selection is based on a list of other materials proposed in previous research and chosen by multicriteria decision methods. In this sense, the material savENRG PCM-HS22P proved to be the best. Moreover, a simulation using the finite elements method showed how the PCM reduced the temperature of the air by 9 °C when heating and by 4 °C when the temperature drops. To conclude, the multicriteria selection methods chose the best material to absorb energy during the charging process and released it during the discharging event in this automotive application.

Abstract
The magnesium hydroxide/magnesium oxide (Mg(OH)2/MgO) system is a promising chemical heat storage system that utilizes unused heat at the temperature range of 200–500 °C. We have previously reported that the addition of lithium chloride (LiCl) and/or lithium hydroxide (LiOH) promotes the dehydration of Mg(OH)2. The results revealed that LiOH primarily catalyzed the dehydration of the surface of Mg(OH)2, while LiCl promoted the dehydration of bulk Mg(OH)2. However, the roles of Li compounds in the hydration of MgO have not been discussed in detail. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) techniques were used to analyze the effects of adding the Li compounds. The results revealed that the addition of LiOH promoted the diffusion of water into the MgO bulk phase and the addition of LiCl promoted the hydration of the MgO bulk phase. It was also observed that the concentration (number) of OH− affected hydration. The mechanism of hydration of pure and LiCl- (or LiOH)-added MgO has also been discussed. The effect of LiCl and LiOH on the hydration of MgO was investigated by XRD and FT-IR measurements, which can help to identify dopants that can effectively catalyze the Mg(OH)2 dehydration and MgO hydration processes.![]()

Abstract
Owing to advantageous properties attributed to well-organized structures, multifunctional materials with reversible hierarchical and highly ordered arrangement in solid-state assembled structures have drawn tremendous interest. However, such materials rarely exist. Based on the reversible phase transition of phase-change materials (PCMs), phase-change nanocrystals (C18-UCNCs) are presented herein, which are capable of self-assembling into well-ordered hierarchical structures. C18-UCNCs have a core-shell structure consisting of a cellulose crystalline core that retains the basic structure and a soft shell containing octadecyl chains that allow phase transition. The distinct core-shell structure and phase transition of octadecyl chains allow C18-UCNCs to self-assemble into flaky nano/microstructures. These self-assembled C18-UCNCs exhibit efficient thermal transport and light-to-thermal energy conversion, and thus are promising for thermosensitive imaging. Specifically, flaky self-assembled nano/microstructures with manipulable surface morphology, surface wetting, and optical properties are thermoreversible and show thermally induced self-healing properties. By using phase-change nanocrystals as a novel group of PCMs, reversible self-assembled multifunctional materials can be engineered. This study proposes a promising approach for constructing self-assembled hierarchical structures by using phase-change nanocrystals and thereby significantly expands the application of PCMs.

Abstract
Due to growing consciousness regarding the environmental impact of fossil-based and non-sustainable materials in construction and building applications, there have been an increasing interest in bio-based and degradable materials in this industry. Due to their excellent chemical and thermo-physical properties for thermal energy storage, bio-based phase change materials (BPCMs) have started to attract attention worldwide for low to medium temperature applications. The ready availability, renewability, and low carbon footprint of BPCMs make them suitable for a large spectrum of applications. Up to now, most of the BPCMs have been incorporated into inorganic matrices with only a few attempts to set the BPCMs into bio-matrices. The current paper is the first comprehensive review on BPCMs incorporation in wood and wood-based materials, as renewable and sustainable materials in buildings, to enhance the thermal mass in the environmentally-friendly buildings. In the paper, the aspects of choosing BPCMs, bio-based matrices, phase change mechanisms and their combination, interpretation of life cycle analyses, and the eventual challenges of using these materials are presented and discussed.

Abstract
Nanostructure-enhanced pool and flow boiling has the potential to increase the efficiency of a plethora of applications. Past studies have developed well-ordered, nonscalable structures to study the fundamental limitations of boiling such as bubble nucleation, growth, and departure, often in a serial manner without global optimization. Here, we develop a highly scalable, conformal, cost-effective, rapid, and tunable three-tier hierarchical surface deposition technique capable of holistically creating micropores, microscale dendritic clusters, and nanoparticles on arbitrary surfaces. We use this technique to investigate the pool boiling heat transfer performance with focus on the bubble departure diameter and frequency. By tuning the structure length scale, the pool boiling characteristics were optimized through a multipronged approach, including increasing nucleation site density (micropores), regulating bubble evolution behavior (dendritic structures), improving surface wickability (nanoscale particles and channels), and separating liquid and vapor pathways (micropores and micro/nanochannels). Ultrahigh critical heat fluxes (CHF) ≈400 W/cm2 were obtained, corresponding to an enhancement of ≈245% compared to smooth copper surfaces. To study in situ bubble departure and coalescence dynamics, we developed and used high-magnification in-liquid endoscopy. Our work reveals the existence of a linear relationship between the bubble departure diameter/frequency near the onset of nucleate boiling and CHF enhancement. Our study not only develops a highly scalable, conformal, and rapid micro/nanostructuring technique, it outlines design guidelines for the holistic optimization of boiling heat transfer for energy and water applications.
