Abstract
Polymer-based magnetoelectric (ME) nanocomposites are an enabling material technology for a wide range of applications in the area of digitalization strategies. Due to its highest piezoelectric response among polymers, poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) is the piezoelectric matrix most used in polymer-based ME materials with over 80% of the total reports, with the resulting composites typically processed from solutions with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), a toxic solvent. Nevertheless, environmentally friendlier approaches and sustainable technologies are increasingly being required. This work demonstrates that P(VDF-TrFE)/Co2Fe2O4 nanocomposites can be successfully prepared from solution using three different environmentally friendlier solvents: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N'-dimethylpropyleneurea (DMPU), and triethyl phosphate (TEP) with different dipole moments. It is shown that the prepared composite films, with a maximum ME voltage coefficient of 35 mV cm-1 Oe-1 and a maximum sensitivity of 2.2 mV T-1, are suitable for applications, highlighting the path for a new generation of more sustainable ME sensors.

Abstract
Mechanical stimulation has been considered to be critical to cellular response and tissue regeneration. However, harnessing the direction of mechanical stimulation during osteogenesis still remains a challenge. In this study, we designed a series of novel magnetized collagen coatings (MCCs) (randomly or parallel-oriented collagen fibers) to exert the anisotropic mechanical stimulation using oriented magnetic actuation during osteogenesis. Strikingly, we found the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were significantly up-regulated when the direction of magnetic actuation was parallel to the randomly-oriented collagen coating surface, in contrast to the down-regulated capacity under the perpendicular magnetic actuation. Moreover, further exerting a parallel mechanical stimulation along the parallel-oriented collagen coating, which cells have been oriented by the oriented collagens, were not only able to up-regulate the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs but also promote the new bone formation during osteogenesis in vivo. We also demonstrated the anisotropic magneto-mechanical stimulation for the osteogenic differences might be attributed to the stretching or bending tensile status of collagen fibers controlled by the direction of magnetic actuation, driving the α5β1-dependent integrin signaling cascade. This study therefore got insight of understanding the directional mechanical stimulation on osteogenesis, and also paved a way for sustaining regulation of the biomaterials-host interface.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a simple and cost-effective solvent film casting method to fabricate ultrathin, flexible and lightweight polyvinylidenefluoride (PVDF)-based composites that provide high electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance. Y-type barium hexaferrite with general formula Ba2Co2Fe12O22was first synthesized by the sol-gel autocombustion method and then reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was prepared by modified Hummer's method. The crystal structure, morphology, elemental surface analysis and magnetic properties of the samples were systematically investigated using x-ray diffraction spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. Then, the complex permittivity, complex permeability and EMI shielding properties of the flexible PVDF/rGO/Ba2Co2Fe12O22composite films with two different amounts of Ba2Co2Fe12O22NP content and a fixed amount of rGO content were investigated using a vector network analyzer. The structural characterizations of the resultant composite films showed the formation of an electroactiveβ-phase of PVDF with addition of Ba2Co2Fe12O22nanoparticles and rGO content. The enhancement of theβ-phase in the PVDF/rGO/Ba2Co2Fe12O22nanocomposites was explained from a physicochemical viewpoint. Furthermore, the electrically conductive and magnetic properties of PVDF composite films incorporating rGO and Ba2Co2Fe12O22NPs exhibited a high EMI shielding effectiveness of 25.63 dB, with an absorption-dominated shielding feature in the 8-12 GHz region. The enhanced absorption was attributed to the electrostatic interaction induced by theβ-phase fraction in the PVDF matrix, and subsequently from multiple reflections and magnetic loss originating from the synergetic effect of rGO and Ba2Co2Fe12O22NPs. This study introduces a low-cost and scalable method for the design of novel, lightweight, flexible and efficient EMI shielding composite films with promising prospects for application in the construction, electronics and aerospace fields.

Abstract
Bone tissue repair strategies are gaining increasing relevance due to the growing incidence of bone disorders worldwide. Biochemical stimulation is the most commonly used strategy for cell regeneration, while the application of physical cues, including magnetic, mechanical, or electrical fields, is a promising, however, scarcely investigated field. This work reports on novel magnetoactive three-dimensional (3D) porous scaffolds suitable for effective proliferation of osteoblasts in a biomimetic microenvironment. This physically active microenvironment is developed through the bone-mimicking structure of the scaffold combined with the physical stimuli provided by a magnetic custom-made bioreactor on a magnetoresponsive scaffold. Scaffolds are obtained through the development of nanocomposites comprised of a piezoelectric polymer, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), and magnetostrictive particles of CoFe2O4, using a solvent casting method guided by the overlapping of nylon template structures with three different fiber diameter sizes (60, 80, and 120 μm), thus generating 3D scaffolds with different pore sizes. The magnetoactive composites show a structure very similar to trabecular bone with pore sizes that range from 5 to 20 μm, owing to the inherent process of crystallization of PVDF with the nanoparticles (NPs), interconnected with bigger pores, formed after removing the nylon templates. It is found that the materials crystallize in the electroactive β-phase of PVDF and promote the proliferation of preosteoblasts through the application of magnetic stimuli. This phenomenon is attributed to both local magnetomechanical and magnetoelectric response of the scaffolds, which induce a proper cellular mechano- and electro-transduction process.

Abstract
The surface electric potential of biomaterials has been extensively proven to play a critical role in stem cells' fate. However, there are ambiguous reports on the relation of stem cells' osteogenic capacity to surface potential characteristics (potential polarity and intensity). To address this, we adopted a surface with a wide potential range and both positive/negative polarity in a comprehensive view to get insight into surface potential-regulating cellular osteogenic differentiation. Tb xDy1- xFe2 alloy/poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) magnetoelectric films were prepared, and the film could provide controllable surface potential characteristics with positive or negative polarity and potential (ϕME) intensity variation from 0 to ±120 mV as well as keep the surface chemical composition and microstructure unchanged. Cell culture results showed that osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells on both positive and negative potential films was obviously upregulated when the /ϕME/ intensities were set from 0-55 mV. Differently, the highest upregulated osteogenic differentiation on the positive potential films corresponded to the /ϕME/ intensity from 35-55 mV and was better than that on the negative potential films whereas the highest on the negative potential films corresponded to the /ϕME/ intensity from 0-35 mV and was better than that on the positive potential films. This fact could illustrate why previous reports appeared ambiguously; i.e., the comparative result in osteogenic differentiation between the positive and negative potential films strongly depends on the selection of surface potential intensity. On the basis of assaying of the exposed functional sites (RGD and PHSRN) of the adsorbed fibronectin (FN) and the expression of cellular integrin α5 and β1 subunits, the difference in the behavior between the positive and negative potential films was attributed to the distinct conformation of adsorbed fibronectin (FN) and the opposite changing trend with /ϕME/ for the two films, which triggers the osteogenesis-related FAK/ERK signaling pathway to a different extent. This study could provide new cognition for the in-depth understanding of the regulation mechanism underlying surface potential characteristics in cell behaviors.

Abstract
Development of flexible piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) is a real challenge for the next-generation energy-harvesting applications. In this paper, we report highly flexible PENGs based on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)/2 wt % Ce-Fe2O3 and PVDF/2 wt % Ce-Co3O4 nanocomposite fibers. The incorporation of magnetic Ce-Fe2O3 and Ce-Co3O4 greatly affects the structural properties of PVDF nanofibers, especially the polymeric β and γ phases. In addition, the new composites enhanced the interfacial compatibility through electrostatic filler-polymer interactions. Both PVDF/Ce-Fe2O3 and PVDF/Ce-Co3O4 nanofibers-based PENGs, respectively, produce peak-to-peak output voltages of 20 and 15 V, respectively, with the corresponding output currents of 0.010 and 0.005 μA/cm2 under the force of 2.5 N. Enhanced output performance of the flexible nanogenerator is correlated with the electroactive polar phases generated within the PVDF, in the presence of the nanomaterials. The designed nanogenerators respond to human wrist movements with the highest output voltage of 0.15 V, for the PVDF/Ce-Fe2O3 when subjected to hand movements. The overall piezoelectric power generation is correlated with the nanoparticle size and the existing filler-polymer and ion-dipole interactions.

Abstract
The future of magnetoelectric (ME) materials is closely linked to the optimization of the ME response on nanocomposites or to the introduction of new effects to achieve higher ME performance from low magnetic fields. Here, we report a P(VDF-TrFE)/[C4mim][FeCl4] nanocomposite with a magneto-ionic response that produces giant magnetoelectric coefficients up to ≈10 V cm-1 Oe-1. This response comprises a magnetically triggered ionic/charge movement within the porous structure of the polymer, being this a novel phenomenon never experimentally observed or explored in magnetoelectric composites. This work successfully demonstrates the concept of exploring magnetic ionic liquids, such as [C4mim][FeCl4], in polymer-based magnetoelectric nanocomposites, suitable for low-field magnetic sensing devices. Such nanocomposites have remarkable potential for applications, not only because they exhibit a high ME response with scalable production and with good reproducibility but also because this coupling between magnetic order and electric order via ionic effects can lead to additional novel effects.

Abstract
The binding of cell integrins to proteins adsorbed on the material surface is a highly dynamic process critical for guiding cellular responses. However, temporal dynamic regulation of adsorbed proteins to meet the spatial conformation requirement of integrins for a certain cellular response remains a great challenge. Here, an active CoFe2O4/poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) nanocomposite film, which was demonstrated to be an obvious surface potential variation (Δ V ≈ 93 mV) in response to the applied magnetic field intensity (0-3000 Oe), was designed to harness the dynamic binding of integrin-adsorbed proteins by in situ controlling of the conformation of adsorbed proteins. Experimental investigation and molecular dynamics simulation confirmed the surface potential-induced conformational change in the adsorbed proteins. Cells cultured on nanocomposite films indicated that cellular responses in different time periods (adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation) required distinct magnetic field intensity, and synthetically programming the preferred magnetic field intensity of each time period could further enhance the osteogenic differentiation through the FAK/ERK signaling pathway. This work therefore provides a distinct concept that dynamically controllable modulation of the material surface property fitting the binding requirement of different cell time periods would be more conducive to achieving the desired osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) are emerging as an important class of biomedical functional nanomaterials in areas such as hyperthermia, drug release, tissue engineering, theranostic, and lab-on-a-chip, due to their exclusive chemical and physical properties. Although some works can be found reviewing the main application of magnetic NPs in the area of biomedical engineering, recent and intense progress on magnetic nanoparticle research, from synthesis to surface functionalization strategies, demands for a work that includes, summarizes, and debates current directions and ongoing advancements in this research field. Thus, the present work addresses the structure, synthesis, properties, and the incorporation of magnetic NPs in nanocomposites, highlighting the most relevant effects of the synthesis on the magnetic and structural properties of the magnetic NPs and how these effects limit their utilization in the biomedical area. Furthermore, this review next focuses on the application of magnetic NPs on the biomedical field. Finally, a discussion of the main challenges and an outlook of the future developments in the use of magnetic NPs for advanced biomedical applications are critically provided.

Abstract
This paper describes the modeling of magnetoelectric (ME) effects for disk-type Terfenol-D (Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.92)/PZT (Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃) laminate composite at low frequency by combining the advantages of the static elastic model and the equivalent circuit model, aiming at providing a guidance for the design and fabrication of the sensors based on magnetoelectric laminate composite. Considering that the strains of the magnetostrictive and piezoelectric layers are not equal in actual operating due to the epoxy resin adhesive bonding condition, the magnetostrictive and piezoelectric layers were first modeled through the equation of motion separately, and then coupled together with a new interface coupling factor kc, which physically reflects the strain transfer between the phases. Furthermore, a theoretical expression containing kc for the transverse ME voltage coefficient αv and the optimum thickness ratio noptim to which the maximum ME voltage coefficient corresponds were derived from the modified equivalent circuit of ME laminate, where the interface coupling factor acted as an ideal transformer. To explore the influence of mechanical load on the interface coupling factor kc, two sets of weights, i.e., 100 g and 500 g, were placed on the top of the ME laminates with the same thickness ratio n in the sample fabrication. A total of 22 T-T mode disk-type ME laminate samples with different configurations were fabricated. The interface coupling factors determined from the measured αv and the DC bias magnetic field Hbias were 0.11 for 500 g pre-mechanical load and 0.08 for 100 g pre-mechanical load. Furthermore, the measured optimum thickness ratios were 0.61 for kc = 0.11 and 0.56 for kc = 0.08. Both the theoretical ME voltage coefficient αv and optimum thickness ratio noptim containing kc agreed well with the measured data, verifying the reasonability and correctness for the introduction of kc in the modified equivalent circuit model.

In order to obtain a wide-range magnetoelectric (ME) response on a ME nanocomposite that matches industry requirements, Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.92 (Terfenol-D)/CoFe₂O₄/P(VDF-TrFE) flexible films were produced by the solvent casting technique and their morphologic, piezoelectric, magnetic and magnetoelectric properties were investigated. The obtained composites revealed a high piezoelectric response (≈-18 pC·N-1) that is independent of the weight ratio between the fillers. In turn, the magnetic properties of the composites were influenced by the composite composition. It was found that the magnetization saturation values decreased with the increasing CoFe₂O₄ content (from 18.5 to 13.3 emu·g-1) while the magnetization and coercive field values increased (from 3.7 to 5.5 emu·g-1 and from 355.7 to 1225.2 Oe, respectively) with the increasing CoFe₂O₄ content. Additionally, the films showed a wide-range dual-peak ME response at room temperature with the ME coefficient increasing with the weight content of Terfenol-D, from 18.6 to 42.3 mV·cm-1·Oe-1.

Abstract
A drug release system is developed capable to modulate the drug release kinetics by the application of a magnetic field. Thus, this work reports on the production, characterization, and release kinetics of a poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) microporous membrane containing a zeolite (Faujasite) and a magnetic stimuli-sensitive component, magnetostrictive Terfenol-D (TD), for the release of ibuprofen (IBU) as drug model. For membranes containing IBU-loaded zeolites and TD without an applied AC magnetic field, the release kinetics is characterized by a first order release. On the other hand, the application of an AC magnetic field modifies the release profile of the membrane, leading to an increase of the release rate by more than 30%, the magnetically driven release being characterized by a super case-II within the Korsmeyer-Peppas model, indicating a release mainly driven by a swelling or erosion mechanism, induced by the magnetostrictive particles under the applied magnetic field. The increase of the TD w/w from 10% to 20% has as a consequence a decrease in the quantity of IBU released from 79% to 70%; on the contrary, increasing the H AC intensity from 100 to 200 mT promotes an increase on the percentage of IBU released from 67% to 75%.

Abstract
The manipulation of electric ordering with applied magnetic fields has been realized on magnetoelectric (ME) materials; however, their ME switching is often accompanied by significant hysteresis and coercivity that represents for some applications a severe weakness. To overcome this obstacle, this work focuses on the development of a new type of ME polymer nanocomposites that exhibits a tailored ME response at room temperature. The multiferroic nanocomposites are based on three different ferrite nanoparticles, Zn0.2Mn0.8Fe2O4 (ZMFO), CoFe2O4 (CFO) and Fe3O4 (FO), dispersed in a piezoelectric copolymer poly(vinylindene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) matrix. No substantial differences were detected in the time-stable piezoelectric response of the composites (∼-28 pC·N(1-)) with distinct ferrite fillers and for the same ferrite content of 10 wt %. Magnetic hysteresis loops from pure ferrite nanopowders showed different magnetic responses. ME results of the nanocomposite films with 10 wt % ferrite content revealed that the ME induced voltage increases with increasing dc magnetic field until a maximum of 6.5 mV·cm(-1)·Oe(1-), at an optimum magnetic field of 0.26 T, and 0.8 mV·cm(-1)·Oe(1-), at an optimum magnetic field of 0.15 T, for the CFO/P(VDF-TrFE) and FO/P(VDF-TrFE) composites, respectively. In contrast, the ME response of ZMFO/P(VDF-TrFE) exposed no hysteresis and high dependence on the ZMFO filler content. Possible innovative applications such as memories and information storage, signal processing, and ME sensors and oscillators have been addressed for such ferrite/PVDF nanocomposites.
