Fine-tuning the pore environment of ultramicroporous three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks for efficient one-step ethylene purification The construction of functional three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) for gas separation, specifically for the efficient removal of ethane (C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>) from ethylene (C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub>), is significant but challenging due to their similar physicochemical properties. In this study, we demonstrate fine-tuning the pore environment of ultramicroporous 3D COFs to achieve efficient one-step C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> purification. By choosing our previously reported 3D-TPB-COF-H as a reference material, we rationally design and synthesize an isostructural 3D COF (3D-TPP-COF) containing pyridine units. Impressively, compared with 3D-TPB-COF-H, 3D-TPP-COF exhibits both high C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub> adsorption capacity (110.4 cm<sup>3</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> at 293 K and 1 bar) and good C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>/C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> selectivity (1.8), due to the formation of additional C-H···N interactions between pyridine groups and C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>. To our knowledge, this performance surpasses all other reported COFs and is even comparable to some benchmark porous materials. In addition, dynamic breakthrough experiments reveal that 3D-TPP-COF can be used as a robust absorbent to produce high-purity C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> directly from a C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>/C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> mixture. This study provides important guidance for the rational design of 3D COFs for efficient gas separation.

Protein Corona of Nanoparticles: Isolation and Analysis Nanoparticles entering biological systems or fluids inevitably adsorb biomolecules, such as protein, on their surfaces, forming a protein corona. Ensuing, the protein corona endows nanoparticles with a new biological identity and impacts the interaction between the nanoparticles and biological systems. Hence, the development of reliable techniques for protein corona isolation and analysis is key for understanding the biological behaviors of nanoparticles. First, this review systematically outlines the approach for isolating the protein corona, including centrifugation, magnetic separation, size exclusion chromatography, flow-field-flow fractionation, and other emerging methods. Next, we review the qualitative and quantitative characterization methods of the protein corona. Finally, we underscore the necessary steps to advance the efficiency and fidelity of protein corona isolation and characterization on nanoparticle surfaces. We anticipate that these insights into protein corona isolation and characterization methodologies will profoundly influence the development of technologies aimed at elucidating bionano interactions and the role of protein corona in various biomedical applications.

Replicating shear-mediated self-assembly of spider silk through microfluidics The development of artificial spider silk with properties similar to native silk has been a challenging task in materials science. In this study, we use a microfluidic device to create continuous fibers based on recombinant MaSp2 spidroin. The strategy incorporates ion-induced liquid-liquid phase separation, pH-driven fibrillation, and shear-dependent induction of β-sheet formation. We find that a threshold shear stress of approximately 72 Pa is required for fiber formation, and that β-sheet formation is dependent on the presence of polyalanine blocks in the repetitive sequence. The MaSp2 fiber formed has a β-sheet content (29.2%) comparable to that of native dragline with a shear stress requirement of 111 Pa. Interestingly, the polyalanine blocks have limited influence on the occurrence of liquid-liquid phase separation and hierarchical structure. These results offer insights into the shear-induced crystallization and sequence-structure relationship of spider silk and have significant implications for the rational design of artificially spun fibers.

Hydrogen Bond‐Mediated Self‐Assembly of Carbon Dots Enabling Precise Tuning of Particle and Cluster Luminescence for Advanced Optoelectronic Applications The effective control over the self-assembly process of carbon dots (CDs) and their cluster luminescence in the aggregated state is of paramount significance and challenge. This study, for the first time, systematically explores the photoluminescent behavior of CDs in their aggregated state, which is less understood compared to their discrete state. By investigating the effects of concentration and solvent environment, it's demonstrated that CDs could exhibit dual emission properties, shifting from blue particle emissions to red cluster emissions as they aggregate. The key to this tunable luminescence lies in hydrogen bonding, which drives the self-assembly of CDs and modulates their photo physical properties. These findings reveal that through precise control of aggregation, CDs can be engineered for advanced optoelectronic applications, including tunable light-emitting diodes (LEDs), secure information encryption, and fingerprint authentication. This report not only deepens the understanding of the underlying mechanisms governing CDs' cluster luminescence but also introduces a novel approach to exploiting their unique properties for technological innovation.

Next-generation nanomaterials-based biosensors: Real-time biosensing devices for detecting emerging environmental pollutants Over the last few decades, industrialization and urbanization have accelerated environmental degradation and, therefore, require scientific approaches for proper monitoring and management. This review specifically examines biosensors based on nanomaterials and their application in environmental monitoring for sustainable purposes such as detecting heavy metals in water, air-borne pollutants and greenhouse gases, pesticides in soil and foods, identification of biological agents and pathogens. For instance, graphene based immunosensors have shown high level of resistivity and stability, identifying lead ions in water at very low limits of detection, 0.01 ppb. In the same way, biosensors, which contain gold nanoparticles, have shown high sensitivity to the mercury ions; their detection limit reaches 0.005 ppb. This review describes the nanomaterials used in biosensors in terms of their dimensionality and the essential properties of mechanical, thermal, electronic, optical, and catalytic that qualify them for use in biosensors. It also presents the mechanisms of interaction between nanomaterials and biomolecules based on the intended application, and other important factors that need to be considered when designing nanobiomaterials. Furthermore, the review highlights the current issues, limitations, and future prospects of the material in terms of stability, reproducibility, biocompatibility, and environmental concerns, as well as the integration of the material into future smart multi-functional systems such as Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning (ML), and other innovative systems, and issues related to scaling up and commercialization. This systematic literature review shows the potential role of nanomaterial biosensors to enhance the achievement of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) toward a healthier and sustainable society.

Electrically Insulating Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Materials: A Perspective Abstract Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is critical in electronic applications. Over the past decades, numerous high‐performance EMI shields are developed using electrically conducting materials. However, from an application aspect, EMI shielding materials, integral to the increasingly complex electronic systems, often need to be electrically insulating to prevent short‐circuiting and enhance overall application reliability and flexibility. This requirement has frequently been overlooked in earlier research on EMI shielding materials. This paper summarizes the representative advancements in the design of innovative EMI shielding materials that minimize and eliminate reliance on electrical conductivity. Insights into the future prospects and directions for the development of electrically insulating EMI shielding materials are also provided, with the aim of pioneering materials that are both intrinsically insulating and effective at EMI shielding.
