Article Abstract

In recent years, electroactive nerve conduits made from a blend of P(VDF-TrFE) (poly (vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene)) with other materials have shown significant progress. However, research combining P(VDF-TrFE) conduits with drug delivery systems remains sparse. In this study, we developed a novel gastrodin-loaded P(VDF-TrFE)-Eudragit L100-gold nanoparticles (Gas@PT-EL100-AuNPs) nanofiber membrane. Fabricated through electrospinning technique, this composite membrane aimed to investigate the impacts of gastrodin and AuNPs on its properties. Experimental results indicated that the incorporation of gold nanoparticles significantly reduced the fiber diameter of the membrane and enhanced the overall performance by improving hydrophilicity and piezoelectric properties. Specifically, the addition of AuNPs substantially enhanced the piezoelectric performance of the nanofiber membrane. Furthermore, the inclusion of gastrodin not only improved the membrane's hydrophilicity but also enabled effective release of the neuroprotective drug. These findings suggest that the Gas@PT-EL100-AuNPs nanofiber membrane is a novel biomaterial with potential applications in the repair and treatment of nerve injuries.

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance poses significant challenges in conventional antibiotic treatments for chronic wound infections, highlighting an urgent need for alternative therapeutic strategies. To address this issue, we developed a multifunctional electrospun nanofiber dressing co-loaded with anthocyanin (ATH) and asiaticoside (AS) that possesses antimicrobial activity. The tri-layer dressing contains three functional components: a hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile-anthocyanin (PAN-ATH) layer for pH monitoring, a hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) layer for exudate management, and a water-soluble pullulan-Bletilla striata polysaccharide-asiaticoside (PUL-BSP-AS) layer.

Solar-driven desalination has emerged as a sustainable and efficient solution for addressing global water scarcity, especially beneficial in remote, off-grid, and disaster-affected regions. Among emerging technologies, photothermal membrane distillation (PMD) stands out due to its effective solar-energy conversion, scalability, and simplicity. Here, we report a hybrid PMD membrane fabricated by electrospinning MXene (TiCT) nanosheets integrated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto a poly(vinylidene fluoride--hexafluoropropylene) (PH) substrate.

Acidochromic fluorescent membranes have garnered significant research interest owing to their potential in real-time environmental monitoring and smart sensing applications. However, the rational design of membranes to optimize their structure-property interplay for enhanced acidochromic performance remains further explored. Herein, we prepared various stimulus-responsive micro/nanofibrous membranes using electrospinning technology by incorporating a fluorescent small molecule (TPECNPy-2) with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) to obtain specific properties.

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are typically constrained to operate below 200 °C due to the thermionic emission effect and material degradation at high temperatures. Herein, high-temperature-resistant fluorinated polyimide nanofibers (4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride-4,4'-oxidianiline/2,2″-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 6FDA-ODA/TFDB) were designed to mitigate the thermionic emission effect through the introduction of trifluoromethyl (-CF) groups. 6FDA-ODA/TFDB nanofibers exhibited a fine fiber structure and a large highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) gap, which enhanced its effective contact area and maintained more localized states for charge transfer.

The increasing discharge of complex wastewater, which poses a significant risk to the environment and health, requires the development of an efficient and versatile treatment technology. In this study, we present a more environmentally friendly bifunctional membrane made by in-situ hydrothermal growth of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on electrospun nanofibers that can be used for the simultaneous removal of emulsified oils and heavy metal ions. The electrostatically spun fiber substrate consisting of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polyimide (PI) provided a high surface scaffold for the uniform deposition of gallic acid biobased MOFs, which ensured highly efficient adsorption and filtration properties as well as the advantage of facilitating secondary recycling.
