Formation of unilamellae of fully hydrated dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) was induced by a horn sonicator from multilamellar vesicles and followed by time-resolved synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering and direct visual morphological investigations by the means of transmission electron-microscopy combined with freeze-fracture. Without incubation the ultrasonication causes continuous increasing in temperature and transformation from the gel to rippled gel structures, then reaching the main transition, the formfactor of unilamellar structure appeared. The ultrasonication resulted in different layer formations at the characteristic temperatures of the gel (20 °C), rippled gel (38 °C), and liquid crystalline (45 °C) phases of the system.

Silk fibroin (SF) is an ideal material for microneedle (MN) preparation. However, long extraction and short storage durations limit its application. Furthermore, MNs prepared from SF alone are easy to break during skin insertion.

Soft ionic conductors are widely used in flexible electronics. However, the simultaneous enhancement of their mechanical properties and ionic conductivity remains challenging. This paper reports the successful development of a strong and tough cellulose-based ionic conductor with exceptional mechanical properties and high ionic conductivity by in situ dissolution and reorganization of the fiber matrix of filter paper to create a multiscale structure.

Joints and fractures lead to different failure mechanisms in rock masses under different environments. The mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of rocks with fissures are key problems in rock mass engineering. Parallel double-fracture quasi-sandstone specimens with different dip angles were prepared and subjected to triaxial compression tests after a single freeze-thaw cycle.
