Recently, polyurethane elastomer (TPU) has attracted more and more attention depending on its excellent optical, mechanical, and retreatment properties. The high strength of polyurethane has always been pursued, which can enable its application in more fields. In this work, an aliphatic polyurethane elastomer membrane (HRPU6) was successfully synthesized, and its strength was obviously improved by solvent annealing technology. The tensile strength and adhesion strength can reach 64.56 and 2.58 MPa, but 36.55 and 1.57 MPa only before solvent annealing, respectively. The impact strength of laminated glass based on HRPU has also been significantly improved after solvent annealing, confirmed through drop ball impact testing. It has been confirmed that the increase in strength of HRPU6 is attributed to the enhancement of hydrogen bonding and the improvement of the phase separation degree.

The controllable synthesis of monodisperse mesoporous silica microspheres with unique physicochemical properties is becoming increasingly important for a variety of applications such as catalysts, chromatography, drug delivery and sensors. Here, we report a facile microfluidic-assisted sol-gel method for the preparation of silica microspheres with precisely controlled properties such as the size of the microspheres, the surface morphology, porosity and stiffness. All these properties can be manipulated by changing specific synthesis parameters, such as changing the microfluidic channels to tune the size of the microdroplets (tens to hundreds of microns), changing the contents of the precursor solution to manipulate the surface morphology (wrinkled to smooth surface) and changing the gelation/annealing conditions to tune the porosity (surface area up to 1021 m g) and stiffness of the microspheres (elastic modulus tunable from 0.

Background: Infections from the hepatitis B virus (HBV) are a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma, one of the most common types of liver cancer. Circulating cell-free DNA (ccfDNA) in human plasma can be used as a non-invasive biomarker for diagnosing HBV-related liver diseases. The isolation of target ccfDNA sequences is often challenging due to the co-extraction of highly abundant non-target DNA from samples.

Two-dimensional halide perovskites are attracting attention due to their structural diversity, improved stability, and enhanced quantum efficiency compared to their three-dimensional counterparts. In particular, Dion-Jacobson (DJ) phase perovskites exhibit superior structural stability compared to Ruddlesden-Popper phase perovskites. The inherent quantum well structure of layered perovskites leads to highly anisotropic charge transport and optical properties.

With their ability to self-assemble spontaneously into well-defined nanoscale morphologies, block copolymer (BCP) thin films are a versatile platform to fabricate functional nanomaterials. An important challenge to wider deployment of BCPs in nanofabrication is combining precise control over the nanoscale domain orientation in BCP assemblies with scalable deposition techniques that are applicable to large-area, curved, and flexible substrates. Here, we show that spray-deposited smooth films of a nominally disordered BCP exhibit latent orientations, which can be prescriptively selected by controlling solvent evaporation during spray casting.

We report a two-step approach to fabricate CsPbBr superstructures with strongly circularly polarized photoluminescence by self-assembly of nanoclusters on a substrate, followed by their annealing. In the first step, the nanoclusters self-assemble upon solvent evaporation, a process that forms mesoscopic superstructures whose geometrical arrangement at the μm-scale confers them optical chirality. In the second step, mild annealing of such superstructures induces the coalescence of the nanoclusters, accompanied by a continuous red shift of the photoluminescence up to 530 nm, with preservation of the μm-scale wires bundles and the chiral properties of the sample (g=0.
