PCL/Collagen/UA Composite Biomedical Dressing with Ordered Microfiberous Structure Fabricated by a 3D Near-Field Electrospinning Process.

In this work, a functionalized polycaprolactone (PCL) composite fiber combining calf-type I collagen (CO) and natural drug usnic acid (UA) was prepared, in which UA was used as an antibacterial agent. Through 3D near-field electrospinning, the mixed solution was prepared into PCL/CO/UA composite fibers (PCUCF), which has a well-defined perfect arrangement structure. The influence of electrospinning process parameters on fiber diameter was investigated, the optimal electrospinning parameters were determined, and the electric field simulation was conducted to verify the optimal parameters.

Fabrication and Application of Photocatalytic Composites and Water Treatment Facility Based on 3D Printing Technology.

Currently, the degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater by photocatalytic technology has attracted great attention. In this study, a new type of 3D printing material with photocatalytic activity was first prepared to print a water treatment equipment, and then a layer of silver-loaded TiO was coated on the equipment to further improve the catalytic degradation performance. The composite filaments with a diameter of 1.

Computational design of high efficiency nonplanar tri-s-triazine-based ambipolar host materials for phosphorescent blue emitters.

A series of nonplanar tri-s-triazine-based molecules were designed, and their optical, electronic, and charge transport properties as ambipolar host materials for blue electrophosphorescence emitters were explored by density functional theory. The influence of the linkage between tri-s-triazine and carbazole, diphenylamine and triphenylamine, as well as the influence of a series of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents on triplet energy, energy level matching and charge transport of the designed molecules was discussed in detail. Our results reveal that the molecules under investigation can serve as host materials for blue electrophosphorescence emitters.
