Article Synopsis
- The challenge of sealing uncontrolled high-pressure hemorrhage in emergencies outside surgical settings contributes to high trauma mortality rates, as current hemostatic bioadhesives are ineffective for major arteries and heart wounds.
- A new tissue-conformable tough matrix is developed using a phase separation process that creates nanoporous aggregates within a double-network matrix, allowing for better energy dissipation and adhesion to soft tissues.
- This new matrix shows increased durability and sealing capabilities, effectively managing severe bleeding in animal models and outperforming existing bioadhesives, offering a promising solution for treating hemorrhagic wounds.
A well-structured anode nanomaterial, which can ensure electron and ion transport and avoid excessive pulverization, is of crucial importance to achieve high capacity with superior cycling stability for both sodium- and lithium-ion batteries (SIBs and LIBs). For the purpose of a superior rate performance, this work here has designed and successfully synthesized a new Na/Li storage nanomaterial of SCS/SnFe@GO through loading of a SnFe nanoalloy on sea-sponge-like carbon spheres (SCSs), followed by a graphene oxide (GO) wrapping process. In such a designed composite, the SCS skeleton ensures electronic conductivity and shorts Na and Li diffusion pathways, while the SnFe nanoalloy delivers a high capacity and prevents excessive pulverization.
