Abstract
Functional gradient materials with material property anisotropy are one of the hotspots of current new material research. The gradient change of material properties comes from the change of the content of one or more components in the material, which is closely related to the preparation process of the material. Meanwhile, polysaccharide materials, as an environmentally friendly and green material, have attracted extensive attention from researchers. This paper focuses on the preparation process of functional gradient gel materials based on polysaccharides, analyzes the laws affecting the distribution of substances during the molding process from the basic principles of material molding, and clarifies the advantages and disadvantages of various methods, so as to promote the innovation of the theory of the preparation method of functional gradient gel materials. At the same time, the specific applications that can be realized by the gradient materials are introduced and compared with the traditional homogeneous materials to elucidate the enhancement of the usage properties brought by their unique gradient structure or properties, which will play a certain role as a reference for the direction of the application of the subsequent materials.

Shi Z, Yang D, Zhou Y, Chen X, Gan L, Huang J. Micro assembly strategies for enhancing solid-state emission of cellulose nanocrystals and application in photoluminescent inks. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 324:121539. [PMID: 37985112 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121539] [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: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
Crystalline cellulose exhibits photoluminescent properties, making it ideal for solid-state emission through properly assembling crystal arrays. However, assembling in water or other polar solvents poses structural integrity issues. To address this, a micro-assembly method is proposed. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are organized within a sub-micrometer-sized ZIF-8 metal-organic framework and coated with TiO2. Notably, the assembly within ZIF-8 improves the CNCs' emission quantum yield to 37.8 %. The bonding between ZIF-8 and CNCs relies on electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds, which are sensitive to polar solvents. Yet, the sturdy coordination bonds between TiO2 and ZIF-8 enhance resistance. Solvent-resistance tests confirm that TiO2 prevents CNC assembly breakdown, resulting in only an 8.0 % drop in photoluminescent intensity in an alkaline solution after 24 h, compared to 33 % without the coating. For anti-counterfeiting purposes, TiO2@ZIF-8@CNC is combined with a polymer matrix, allowing information to be revealed under specific wavelengths using screen-printed labels.

Abstract
The exploration of nanocellulose has been aided by rapid nanotechnology and material science breakthroughs, resulting in their emergence as desired biomaterials. Nanocellulose has been thoroughly studied in various disciplines, including renewable energy, electronics, environment, food production, biomedicine, healthcare, and so on. Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) is a part of the organic crystallization of macromolecular compounds found in bacteria's capsular polysaccharides and plant fibers. Owing to numerous reactive chemical groups on its surface, physical adsorption, surface grating, and chemical vapor deposition can all be used to increase its performance, which is the key reason for its wide range of applications. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have much potential as suitable matrices and advanced materials, and they have been utilized so far, both in terms of modifying and inventing uses for them. This work reviews CNC's synthesis, properties and various industrial applications. This review has also discussed the widespread applications of CNC as sensor, acoustic insulator, and fire retardant material.

Abstract
Near-infrared circularly polarized light is attractive for wide-ranging applications. However, high-performance near-infrared circularly polarized light is challenging to realize. Here, we show that left-handed chiral photonic cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) films produced from ultrasonicated suspensions enable right-handed circularly polarized luminescence with a dissymmetry factor of -0.330 in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II). We present a theoretical analysis of the adverse effect of structural defects and luminescence intensity heterogeneity on the right-handed circularly polarized luminescence glum inside the bandgap and the occurrence of left-handed circularly polarized luminescence at the band edges. We demonstrate the potential of the chiral photonic CNC films with NIR-II circularly polarized light for cancer cell discrimination. The present work identifies key scientific questions in CNC-based circularly polarized luminescence materials research.
