Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer multilayers with pH-triggered release of antibacterial agents.
TL;DR: The layer-by-layer design principles of poly(methacrylic acid) ultrathin hydrogel coatings that release antimicrobial agents (AmAs) in response to pH variations provide new opportunities to study the fundamental mechanisms of AmA-coating-bacteria interactions and develop a new class of clinically relevant antibacterial coatings for medical devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-defensive antibacterial layer-by-layer hydrogel coatings with pH-triggered hydrophobicity
TL;DR: This approach exploits bacteria-responsive properties of the coating itself without the involvement of potentially toxic cationic polymers or the release of antimicrobial agents, demonstrating a novel approach to the antibacterial protection of tissue-contacting biomedical-device surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tunable pH and temperature response of weak polyelectrolyte brushes: role of hydrogen bonding and monomer hydrophobicity
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of homo-and copolymers which contain 2-alkylacrylic acids (aAs) of increased hydrophobicity were synthesized using surface-initiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (SI-RAFT) polymerization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-amplitude, reversible, pH-triggered wetting transitions enabled by layer-by-layer films.
Yiming Lu,Mohammad Amin Sarshar,Ke Du,Tsengming Chou,Chang-Hwan Choi,Svetlana A. Sukhishvili +5 more
TL;DR: The surface wettability transitions can be used to detect positively charged analytes in solution via large changes in CA associated with adsorption of analytes within the hydrogels, promising for controlling flow and bioadhesion using external stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anchoring Cu Species over SiO2 for Hydrogenation of Dimethyl Oxalate to Ethylene Glycol
Xiaoguang San,Xiao-Ling Gong,Yiming Lu,Juhua Xu,Liming He,Dan Meng,Guosheng Wang,Jian Qi,Quan Jin +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , a novel MOF-derived Cu/SiO2 catalyst (MOF-CmS for short) with a controllable distribution of Cu active sites for the hydrogenation of the DMO to EG reaction was presented.
