Molecules 2024; 29:2822. [PMID: 38930885 PMCID: PMC11206243 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29122822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polylactic acid (PLA) are recognized for their environmental friendliness. By merging them into a composite film, packaging solutions can be designed with good performance. Nonetheless, the inherent interface disparity between CMC and PLA poses a challenge, and there may be layer separation issues. This study introduces a straightforward approach to mitigate this challenge by incorporating tannin acid and ferric chloride in the fabrication of the CMC-PLA. The interlayer compatibility was improved by the in situ formation of a cohesive interface. The resulting CMC/TA-PLA/Fe multilayer film, devoid of any layer separation, exhibits exceptional mechanical strength, with a tensile strength exceeding 70 MPa, a high contact angle of 105°, and superior thermal stability. Furthermore, the CMC/TA-PLA/Fe film demonstrates remarkable efficacy in blocking ultraviolet light, effectively minimizing the discoloration of various wood surfaces exposed to UV aging.

Abstract
Degradable wearable electronics are attracting increasing attention to weaken or eliminate the negative effect of waste e-wastes and promote the development of medical implants without secondary post-treatment. Although various degradable materials have been explored for wearable electronics, the development of degradable wearable electronics with integrated characteristics of highly sensing performances and low-cost manufacture remains challenging. Herein, we developed a facile, low-cost, and environmentally friendly approach to fabricate a biocompatible and degradable silk fibroin based wearable electronics (SFWE) for on-body monitoring. A combination of rose petal templating and hollow carbon nanospheres endows as-fabricated SFWE with good sensitivity (5.63 kPa-1), a fast response time (147 ms), and stable durability (15,000 cycles). The degradable phenomenon has been observed in the solution of 1 M NaOH, confirming that silk fibroin based wearable electronics possess degradable property. Furthermore, the as-fabricated SFWE have been demonstrated that have abilities to monitor knuckle bending, muscle movement, and facial expression. This work offers an ecologically-benign and cost-effective approach to fabricate high-performance wearable electronics.

Versatile, durable conductive networks assembled from MXene and sericin-modified carbon nanotube on polylactic acid textile micro-etched via deep eutectic solvent. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 658:648-659. [PMID: 38134673 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.11.187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Integration of polylactic acid (PLA) textiles with conductive MXene holds great promise for fabricating green electronic textiles (e-textiles) and reducing the risk of electronic waste. However, constructing robust conductive networks on PLA fibers remains challenging due to the susceptibility of MXene to oxidation and the hydrophobicity of PLA fibers. Here, we demonstrate a versatile, degradable, and durable e-textile by decorating the deep eutectic solvent (DES) micro-etched PLA textile with MXene and sericin-modified carbon nanotube hybrid (MXene@SSCNT). The co-assembly of MXene with SSCNT in water not only enhanced its oxidative stability but also formed synergistic conductive networks with biomimetic leaf-like nanostructures on PLA fiber. Consequently, the MXene@SSCNT coated PLA textile (MCP-textile) exhibited high electrical conductivity (5.5 Ω·sq-1), high electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding efficiency (34.20 dB over X-band), excellent electrical heating performance (66.8 ℃, 5 V), and sensitive humidity response. Importantly, the interfacial bonding between the MXene@SSCNT and fibers was significantly enhanced by DES micro-etching, resulting in superior wash durability of MCP-textile. Furthermore, the MCP-textile also showed satisfactory breathability, flame retardancy, and degradability. Given these outstanding features, MCP-textile can serve as a green and versatile e-textile with tremendous potential in EMI shielding, personal thermal management, and respiratory monitoring.

Biodegradable Polyurethane Scaffolds in Regeneration Therapy: Characterization and In Vivo Real-Time Degradation Monitoring by Grafted Fluorescent Tracer.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to assess material degradation in situ and in real time for their promising application in regeneration therapy. However, traditional monitoring methods in vitro cannot always profile the complicated behavior in vivo. This study designed and synthesized a new biodegradable polyurethane (PU-P) scaffold with polycaprolactone glycol, isophorone diisocyanate, and l-lysine ethyl ester dihydrochloride. To monitor the degradation process of PU-P, calcein was introduced into the backbone (PU-5) as a chromophore tracing in different sites of the body and undegradable fluorescent scaffold (CPU-5) as the control group. Both PU-P and PU-5 can be enzymatically degraded, and the degradation products are molecularly small and biosafe. Meanwhile, by virtue of calcein anchoring with urethane, polymer chains of PU-5 have maintained the conformational stability and extended the system conjugation, raising a structure-induced emission effect that successfully achieved a significant enhancement in the fluorescence intensity better than pristine calcein. Evidently, unlike the weak fluorescent response of CPU-5, PU-5 and its degradation can be clearly imaged and monitored in real time after implantation in the subcutaneous tissue of nude mice. Meanwhile, the in situ osteogeneration has also been promoted after the two degradable scaffolds have been implanted in the rabbit femoral condyles and degraded with time. To sum up, the strategy of underpinning tracers into degradable polymer chains provides a possible and effective way for real-time monitoring of the degradation process of implants in vivo.

Abstract
Artificial skin, also known as bioinspired electronic skin (e-skin), refers to intelligent wearable electronics that imitate the tactile sensory function of human skin and identify the detected changes in external information through different electrical signals. Flexible e-skin can achieve a wide range of functions such as accurate detection and identification of pressure, strain, and temperature, which has greatly extended their application potential in the field of healthcare monitoring and human-machine interaction (HMI). During recent years, the exploration and development of the design, construction, and performance of artificial skin has received extensive attention from researchers. With the advantages of high permeability, great ratio surface of area, and easy functional modification, electrospun nanofibers are suitable for the construction of electronic skin and further demonstrate broad application prospects in the fields of medical monitoring and HMI. Therefore, the critical review is provided to comprehensively summarize the recent advances in substrate materials, optimized fabrication techniques, response mechanisms, and related applications of the flexible electrospun nanofiber-based bio-inspired artificial skin. Finally, some current challenges and future prospects are outlined and discussed, and we hope that this review will help researchers to better understand the whole field and take it to the next level.

Abstract
With the increasing environmental pollution caused by disposable masks, it is crucial to develop new degradable filtration materials for medical masks. ZnO-PLLA/PLLA (L-lactide) copolymers prepared from nano ZnO and L-lactide were used to prepare fiber films for air filtration by electrospinning technology. Structural characterization of ZnO-PLLA by H-NMR, XPS, and XRD demonstrated that ZnO was successfully grafted onto PLLA. An L9(43) standard orthogonal array was employed to evaluate the effects of the ZnO-PLLA concentration, ZnO-PLLA/PLLA content, DCM(dichloromethane) to DMF(N,N-dimethylformamide) ratio, and spinning time on the air filtration capacity of ZnO-PLLA/PLLA nanofiber films. It is noteworthy that the introduction of ZnO is important for the enhancement of the quality factor (QF). The optimal group obtained was sample No. 7, where the QF was 0.1403 Pa-1, the particle filtration efficiency (PFE) was 98.3%, the bacteria filtration efficiency (BFE) was 98.42%, and the airflow resistance (Δp) was 29.2 Pa. Therefore, the as-prepared ZnO-PLLA/PLLA film has potential for the development of degradable masks.
