Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate the recycling or reuse of rice husk ash (RHA) in the production of silicate-based glass coatings for metal surfaces. By heat-treating RHA particles and analyzing their chemical composition, the study identifies the segment with the highest SiO2 ratio for further evaluation. The findings show that calcination procedure is necessary to maintain the technical characteristics of amorphous coatings, and RHA can be used as a substitute for silica in borosilicate glass coatings.

Summary: This study proposes a simple route to obtain starch grafted copolymers from cassava and banana starches chemically modified with amphiphilic maleic anhydride-poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether (Ma-mPEG). The results show that copolymers obtained from cassava starch have a better plasticizing effect and can be used as coating materials for strawberries.

Summary: We have developed core-clad bioactive borosilicate fibers with round and rectangular cross-section profile by stacking and drawing glass slabs. Tens-of-meters-long fibers were successfully drawn, but rectangular ones suffered from elevated losses due to the enhanced corrosion caused by residual tensile stress. This study provides the first report on the effect of residual tensile stresses on the corrosion of rectangular fibers and highlights the importance of geometry in the biodegradation behavior of fiberglass.

Summary: In this research, PNIPAAm was grafted on micro-pillared surfaces to achieve a temperature-modulated smart wetting property. PNIPAAm exhibited hydrophobicity above LCST and hydrophilicity below LCST. Grafting on micropillars enhanced the change in contact angle and accelerated graft hydration.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to develop glasses for encapsulation of radioactive materials. Borosilicate-based glass systems R7/T7 (B2O3-SiO2-Al2O3-Na2O-CaO) doped with Eu3+ with different concentrations of activator were investigated. The composition of the glasses obtained was analyzed using electron-probe microanalysis technique. The optical properties of the glasses were studied using cathodoluminescence, photoluminescence, and absorption spectra, and the range of optimal activator concentration was determined.

Summary: This study demonstrates a one-pot fabrication method for antifouling coatings based on the simultaneous surface adhesion of trihydroxyphenyl and dihydroxyphenyl moieties of tannic acid (TA) derivative and covalent conjugation of hydrophilic poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA). The surface hydrophilicity and deposition universality on various substrates were investigated, and the anti-bacterial, anti-platelet adhesion, and anti-biofilm formation abilities of the coating were studied. In vitro hemolysis and cytotoxicity, as well as in vivo biocompatibility, were evaluated. The results indicate that the TA/PMOXA-based coating can be used as an antifouling additive on biomedical implants and devices.

Summary: This study investigates the potential application of chemical surface modification to reduce particle adhesion during the spray drying process. By optimizing the coating parameters, highly hydrophobic surfaces were achieved on borosilicate glass and stainless steel substrates that mimic the wall surface of the drying chamber. The results show that the hydrophobic coatings effectively reduce the adhesion of particles, and the surface analysis confirms the presence of desired chemical groups and surface structures.

Summary: This study systematically investigates the ripening behavior of 2D CdSe NCs and finds that a low acetate/oleate ratio, low Cd/Se ratio, and low monomer concentration facilitate the formation of 0D NCs. The presence of a high Cd/Se ratio leads to a porous nanosheet intermediate, while a low Cd/Se ratio results in a saw-like nanosheet intermediate during ripening. These insights are crucial for controlled synthesis of 0D and 2D CdSe NCs.

Summary: The recent development of light-based 3D printing technologies has revolutionized additive manufacturing. Researchers have proposed using upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) in place of traditional two-photon printing (TPP) for photopolymerization. By converting near-infrared (NIR) light into visible/UV light, UCNPs initiate polymerization and open up new possibilities for constructing 3D structures with micrometer feature size using inexpensive light sources.
