PAMAM dendrimers have been conjectured for a wide range of biomedical applications due
to their tuneable physicochemical properties. However, their application has been hindered …

The molecular mechanisms for aqueous boundary lubrication are very different from those in
the classic boundary lubrication, originating from the fluidity of the hydration shells …

Erucamide is known to play a critical role in modifying polymer fiber surface chemistry and
morphology. However, its effects on fiber crystallinity and mechanical properties remain to …

Understanding surface structure of graphene is important for its integration into composite
materials. Here, we have used synchrotron X-ray reflectivity (XRR) to study the structure of …

Amphiphilic in nature, lipids spontaneously self‐assemble into a range of nanostructures in
the presence of water. Among lipid self‐assembled structures, liposomes and supported …

Optimization of boundary lubrication by tuning the confined molecular structures formed by
surface-active additives such as surfactants and polymers is of key importance to improving …

Aquaporin (AQP) biomimetic membranes are a coming-of-age technology for water
purification. Although several studies have reported aquaporin biomimetic membrane …

Recent research indicates that high doses of sucralose content can weaken the immune
response in mice. To better understand the interaction between cell membranes and …

Understanding the nanostructure and nanomechanical properties of surface layers of
erucamide, in particular the molecular orientation of the outermost layer, is important to its …

This study introduces a multilamellar ceramide core-structured microvehicle platform for
substantial skin barrier function recovery. Our approach essentially focused on fabricating …
