The electrophoretic mobility of silica nanospheres was shown to be a function of separation conditions such as pH and phosphate concentration of a carrier electrolyte. The separation selectivity can be controlled by the separation conditions and optimised depending on the sample composition. The effects of pH and phosphate concentration of buffer solutions on the nanosphere electrophoretic mobility are explained using the Overbeek-Booth electrokinetic theory taking into account both electrophoretic retardation and the relaxation effect.

In our previous studies of metal nanoparticle growth, we have come to realize that the dynamic interplay between ligand passivation and metal deposition, as opposed to static facet control, is responsible for focused growth at a few active sites. In this work, we show that the same underlying principle could be applied to a very different system and explain the abnormal growth modes of liquid nanoparticles. In such a liquid active surface growth (LASG), the interplay between droplet expansion and simultaneous silica shell encapsulation gives rise to an active site of growth, which eventually becomes the long necks of nanobottles.

Polybenzimidazole (PBI) is a high-performance polymer known for its excellent thermal stability, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance, attributes that are derived from its unique structure comprising repeated benzene and imidazole rings. However, limitations such as relatively low thermal stability and moisture sensitivity restrict its application as a super engineering plastic. In this study, amide groups are incorporated into the PBI backbone to synthesize the copolymer poly(BI--A), effecting a structural modification at the molecular level.

With the development and improvement of analysis and detection systems, low-toxicity and harmless detection systems have received much attention, especially in the field of food detection. In this paper, a low-toxicity dual-emission molecularly imprinted fluorescence sensor (CdTe QDs@SiO/N-CDs@MIPs) was successfully designed for highly selective recognition and visual detection of tetracycline (TC) in food samples. Specifically, the non-toxic blue-emission N-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with high luminous performance acted as the response signals to contact TC via the covalent bond between amino and carboxyl groups.

A SiO@Au@Polyaniline (SiO@Au@PAN) system has been successfully fabricated leveraging the synergistic effects of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to realize enhanced photothermal performance. The SiO@Au@PAN exhibited strong near-infrared (NIR) absorbance, excellent photothermal conversion efficiency, good dispersibility, and outstanding photostability. The SiO nanospheres as the template provided numerous binding sites for coating of AuNPs.

The protein carrier and encapsulation system based on polyelectrolytes plays crucial roles in drug research and development. Traditional methods such as isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular dynamics simulation have illuminated parts of this complex relationship. However, they fall short of capturing the full picture of the interaction during the carrier's fabrication and protein loading dynamics.
