Polymer-based ultralong room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) is more attractive than that of organic small molecules. However, the intrinsic contradictions between the motion of the chain and the stability of phosphors' triplet excitons make achieving ultralong lifetime in polymeric systems a big challenge. Herein, we have achieved ultralong RTP emission in a polymeric viscous flow state with free chain motion through a facile B-O click reaction among boric acid, polyvinyl alcohol, and hydroxyl silicone oil. The yielded RTP putties (RTPPs) exhibited long lifetimes under ambient conditions (up to 2.39 s), surpassing those of all reported elastic RTP polymers and most glassy RTP polymers. Furthermore, multi-color afterglow can be achieved in RTPPs using the triplet-to-singlet Förster resonance energy transfer strategy. Impressively, utilizing viscous liquid features combined with RTP performance, RTPPs can be easily applied in complex models, handiwork, and anti-counterfeiting. Therefore, this progress, achieving a long phosphorescence lifetime in a viscous flow state, greatly expands the application scope of polymeric RTP materials and further compels a conceptual advance of polymeric RTP.

Hypothesis: Complex emulsions usually consist of aqueous phases, like oil-in-water-in-oil (o/w/o) and water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w), serving foundational roles in colloid science. Oil-in-oil-oil (o/o/o) emulsions offer new avenues for non-aqueous reagents but face challenges in balancing the forces between multiple organic phases.
Experiments: In this work, we generate o/o/o emulsions by integrating an AC electric field with a double cross-junction microchannel.

Nondimensional groups of measured quantities enable comparison between measurements of animals under different conditions and comparison between species. One of the most used such group is the Reynolds number, which compares inertial and viscous contributions to forces on swimming animals. This group includes two quantities that are chosen by the researcher: a typical length and speed.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing attracts significant interest in the food industry for its ability to create complex structures and customize nutritional content. Printing materials, or inks, are specially formulated for food or nutraceuticals. These inks must exhibit proper rheological properties to flow smoothly during printing and form stable final structures.

Article Synopsis
- Biomagnetic fluid dynamics (BFD) focuses on the behavior of bio-fluids, like blood, impacted by magnetic fields, which is important for medical applications such as targeted medication delivery and tumor treatment.
- This study examines blood flow dynamics using trihybrid nanoparticles in a catheterized artery, factoring in various electromagnetic influences and propulsion mechanisms.
- Key findings include that increasing Hall and ion-slip parameters boosts blood velocity, modifies entropy generation, and shows that modified hybrid nano-blood forms smaller, more manageable clumps compared to pure blood, with longer cilia enhancing recovery of these clumps.

The study presents a numerical parametric investigation of flow structures in channels with a longitudinal-radial profile zR = Const and a spherical dome at the base. The goal of the study was to examine the flow structures in these channels depending on the exponent N of the profile and the height of the dome, to determine the conditions that provide optimal centripetal swirling flow, analogous to blood flow in the heart chambers and major vessels. The investigation was conducted using a comparative analysis of flow structures in channel configurations zR = Const, carried out in two stages.
