Summary: Covalent adaptive networks combine the advantages of cross-linked elastomers and dynamic bonding in a single system. A simple one-pot method to prepare thiol-ene elastomers that exhibit reversible photoinduced switching from an elastomeric gel to fluid state is demonstrated. This behavior can be generalized to different composition and chemistries and allows for self-healing, remolding, and reversible adhesion.

Summary: The thiol-ene click reaction was used to modify poly(isobutylene-co-isoprene) (IIR) by two different strategies using carboxylated thiols with varying alkyl spacer chain lengths. The outcomes of the reactions were influenced by the length of the alkyl spacer in the mercaptanoic acid, with reaction yields decreasing as the chain length increased.

Summary: In this study, porous synthetic polypeptide-polyester materials were prepared by thiol-ene photopolymerization, and their properties were investigated. The results showed that PBLG polyHIPE is stiffer than PCL polyHIPE, while copolyHIPEs composed of both components have adjustable thermomechanical properties. A bilayered PBLG-PCL polyHIPE with a thin and robust interface was successfully prepared using the thiol-ene HIPE-templating approach.

Summary: Janus particles for oil-water separation have been widely studied. In this study, bowl-shaped Janus particles were prepared using a thiol-ene click reaction and selective etching. These particles showed convex hydrophilic and concave oleophilic surfaces and exhibited high efficiency in separating micro-sized oil droplets from an emulsion within a short period of time. The underlying mechanism for the coalescence of oil droplets using these Janus particles was proposed based on experimental and theoretical results.

Summary: A new strategy for preparing amphiphilic nanoparticles based on POSS was designed using thiol-ene click reaction to improve SDS foam stability. The contact angle of the synthesized nanoparticles can be modified by changing the feed ratio, affecting foam stability and ability. Foam stability was significantly improved at high salinity and low temperature, with even distribution of synthesized nanoparticles at the gas-liquid interface contributing to stable foam formation.

Summary: Hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesives (HMPSAs) with amphiphilic properties were created by mixing SIS with fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (AEO-9) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights to improve the ability of HMPSAs to deliver hydrophilic drugs. The hydrophilicity of HMPSAs was enhanced by modifying with AEO-9 and PEG2000, leading to a reduction in contact angle and an increase in water absorption. The drug release experiments showed that SIS/AEO-9/PEG2000 improved the release efficiency of hydrophilic drug gardenia jasminoides by 69%.

Summary: It was found that adding an appropriate proportion of high-molecular-weight polymer thiol can effectively decrease the saturation voltage of the PDLC films, thereby improving their electro-optical performance. Additionally, the adhesion properties between the substrates and PDLC films are related to the density of the polymer network.

Summary: As a promising approach in translational medicine, the decellularization of discarded livers to produce bioscaffolds that support recellularization has potential in overcoming the limitations of conventional liver transplantation. In this study, the researchers investigated the use of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibition to preserve the extracellular matrix (ECM) during liver decellularization. The results demonstrated that the application of an MMP inhibitor significantly improved the preservation of ECM components and mechanical properties of the bioscaffolds, which supported cell viability and function in vitro. The study also confirmed that the MMP inhibition led to the inhibition of MMP2 and MMP9, providing a novel method to enhance ECM preservation during liver decellularization.

Summary: Human skin equivalents (HSEs) play a crucial role in tissue engineering. This study introduces a 3D-printed culture insert to apply a static radial constraint on HSEs and examines its effects on tissue characteristics. The results show that the diameter of the culture insert significantly influences tissue contraction, fibroblast and matrix organization, keratinocyte differentiation, epidermal stratification, and basement membrane formation. This study provides important insights for the design of skin tissue engineering.

Summary: This paper reviewed the primary methods for improving the overall properties of biodegradable zinc stents. It discussed the mechanical properties, degradation behavior, and biocompatibility of various improvement strategies. Alloying was found to be the most common, simple, and effective method for improving mechanical properties. Deformation processing and surface modification further improved the mechanical properties and biological activity of zinc alloys. Meanwhile, structural design could endow stents with special properties. Manufacturing zinc alloys with excellent properties and exploring their interaction mechanism with the human body are areas for future research.
