In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were embedded into the hydrophilic poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibrous mats to achieve sustained release of water soluble drug from hydrophilic nanofibrous mats. MSNs were successfully prepared based on a sol–gel method. Water soluble drug naproxen sodium was then loaded into the mesopores of the MSNs, and different amounts of the drug-loaded MSNs were further incorporated into the fibers by the electrospinning process. Morphology of the nanofibrous mats was investigated, and it was found that all the fibers exhibited fibrous structure. Interestingly, lots of protrusions could be observed from the scanning electron microscopy images with high magnification, and numbers of the protrusions increased with the increasing of loading ratios of the MSNs from 5 to 15%. In addition, the wetting behaviors of the nanofibrous mats were also measured, and the water contact angles of all the mats were measured to be 0°. Finally, the drug release results indicated that all the PVA/MSNs composite nanofibrous mats showed an obviously prolonged drug release. The optimal loading ratio of the MSNs in the nanofibers was 10% due to the slowest drug release rate. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 47922.

PVA hydrogels with high strength and toughness are fabricated by dual physical and chemical cross-linking. The best comprehensive mechanical properties can be achieved by reaction at room temperature followed with freeze-thaw and annealing treatment. Besides, the mechanical properties of PVA hydrogel increased first and then decreased with the increase of molecular weight or mass fraction. By changing the reaction solvent, the mechanical properties of PVA hydrogel could also be effectively adjusted. Therefore, the influences of various factors on the mechanical properties of PVA hydrogel can be obtained.

Polymer-based composites are used for wound healing applications. This work aims to prepare an inorganic-polymer nanocomposite based on bentonite, poly(vinyl alcohol), and bacterial cellulose by electrospinning for wound healing. The nanocomposite is synthesized using a solution intercalation technique, with 1–2 wt% nanobentonite concentration variation. The effects of commercial and laboratory-synthesized nanobentonite as well as the extract of the green walnut shell (EGWS) are examined and characterized by different techniques. The addition of nanobentonite increases the average size of fibers and tensile strength up to 200 nm and more than 15 MPa, respectively, due to the presence of hydrogen bonding formed between the nanobentonite sheets and polymer matrix. By the addition of synthetic nanoclay and EGWS, moderate elongation and strength are achieved. The hydrophilicity shows a decreasing trend up to 2 wt% of commercial nanobentonite; however, the laboratory-synthesized nanobentonite is not significantly effective. Effects of extracts on the viability of cultured human adipose tissue–derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are quantitated, where the samples containing 1–2 wt% of commercial nanobentonite have less toxicity than others. Antibacterial activity is tested against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria according to the agar diffusion test for 72 h, in which EGWS-based mats exhibit strong antimicrobial activity.

Herein, PVA-Mo 2 C/Mo 2 N nanospheres with surface roughness are synthesized via a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) involved approach and used for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The average crystallite size of the PVA protected nMo 2 CN nanospheres (6.1 nm) is one third of that of the PVA-Mo 2 C/Mo 2 N without PVA protection (17.9 nm). At 10 mA cm −2 current density, the as-synthesized PVA-Mo 2 C/Mo 2 N nanospheres with surface roughness exhibit HER overpotentials of 132 mV and 142 mV with corresponding Tafel slope of 51.8 mV dec −1 and 50.4 mV dec −1 in acid and alkaline medium, respectively. This high apparent activity can be attributed to the high intrinsic activity originated from the adjacent surface active sites of Mo 2 C and Mo 2 N as well as the large ECSA of PVA-Mo 2 C/Mo 2 N nanospheres with surface roughness.

The self–healing capability of epoxy coatings modified with coaxial core–shell nanofibers loaded with the corrosion inhibitor 2–mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) was investigated using electrochemical techniques. The polyvinyl alcohol/polyvinylidene fluoride core–shell nanofibers were prepared by coaxial electrospinning. Electrochemical impedance results showed that the MBT–loaded coaxial nanofibers improved the barrier properties and decreased the corrosion activity of the coatings. Results of the Scanning Kelvin Probe technique revealed that the MBT–loaded coaxial nanofibers healed corrosion over artificial defects exposed to NaCl electrolytes. These results indicate that adding MBT–loaded coaxial nanofibers to epoxy coatings is a promising strategy toward the development of self–healing epoxy coatings.

Polyvinyl alcohol/silica (PVA/SiO 2 ) hybrid fibers were prepared via a sol–gel combined electrospinning technique, and their potential application in bone tissue engineering was evaluated in terms of in vitro bioactivity. When the PVA concentration was 8%, the obtained PVA/SiO 2 hybrid fibers exhibited a uniform and continuous morphology, with an average fiber diameter of about 542.9 nm. The SiO 2 xerogel phase was uniformly distributed within the PVA matrix, and its actual content was very close to the theoretical value. After 3 days of immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF), the PVA/SiO 2 hybrid fibers displayed a vigorous precipitation of lamellar apatite crystals, reflecting their excellent in vitro bioactivity.

Two low-methoxy pectins (LMPs) were obtained by local electrochemical pH modification using an H-type double-layer water bath sealed electrochemical cell at the voltage of 180 V for 3 h. The weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of citrus peel pectin (CPP) prepared in the anodic part at room temperature (CPP-A 5/RT ) and in the cathodic part at 5 °C (CPP-C 5/RT ) were 346 kDa and 328 kDa, respectively, and the degrees of methylation (DM) were 36.8 % and 11.9 %. Moreover, the second-order kinetic model was most appropriate for the degradation processes, as free radicals were generated in the anodic part and β -elimination occurred in the cathodic part. Subsequently, CPP-A 5/RT and CPP-C 5/RT were utilized to fabricate food packaging film blending with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), bcZnO (ZnO coupled with bentonite and colophony) nanorods , and Ca 2+ ions by casting method. Then the prepared films were studied for their ability to maintain the freshness of strawberries. The addition of Ca 2+ ions and bcZnO nanorods increased the thickness, water contact angle (WCA), and mechanical properties of the composite films, while decreased water vapor permeability (WVP). Therefore, the CPP-based films, supplemented with bcZnO nanorods and crosslinked with Ca 2+ ions by “egg-box” model, can serve as an antibacterial food packaging material for food preservation.

Oil/water separation has recently attracted a great deal of attention for research due to the frequent occurrence of an oil spill as well as the increase of industrial and household oily wastewater. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to demonstrate underwater superoleophobic crosslinked phosphorylated poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel coated stainless steel mesh (CL-PPVA@SSM), which was fabricated using a simple dip-coating method and aldol reaction on the mesh substrate. The as-prepared CL-PPVA@SSM is capable of separating oil from a variety of different oil/water mixtures with high separation efficiency up to 99.2%, excellent recyclability and fast water permeate flux of 467.7 L m –2 h –1 , which makes it suitable for the separation of oil-water mixtures from oil-water emulsions. Also, in the oil-water separation process, the CL-PPVA@SSM is capable to remove organic dye from the water. The CL-PPVA@SSM exhibits stability under various harsh conditions such as mechanical abrasion. Importantly, the CL-PPVA@SSM shows a massive potential to separate kitchen waste oil/water mixtures due to the underwater superoleophobic property as required for the recycling of kitchen waste oil. Therefore, this method has been met with a promising application prospect of practical application.

Strong, stretchable, and durable biomaterials with shape memory properties can be useful in different biomedical devices, tissue engineering, and soft robotics. However, it is challenging to combine these features. Semi-crystalline polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been used to make hydrogels by conventional methods such as freeze–thaw and chemical crosslinking, but it is formidable to produce strong materials with adjustable properties. Herein, a method to induce crystallinity and produce physically crosslinked PVA hydrogels via applying high-concentration sodium hydroxide into dense PVA polymer is introduced. Such a strategy enables the production of physically crosslinked PVA biomaterial with high mechanical properties, low water content, resistance to injury, and shape memory properties. It is also found that the developed PVA hydrogel can recover 90% of plastic deformation due to extension upon supplying water, providing a strong contraction force sufficiently to lift objects 1100 times more than their weight. Cytocompatibility, antifouling property, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility are also demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. The fabrication methods of PVA-based catheters, injectable electronics, and microfluidic devices are demonstrated. This gelation approach enables both layer-by-layer and 3D printing fabrications.

A new strategy for signal amplification was introduced in a label-free amperometric immunoassay platform. Improvements in the signal occurred following the oxidation of glucose by glucose oxidase and catalysis by polythionine of the produced H 2 O 2 from the previous oxidation reaction. In addition, a multifunctional conductive hydrogel, polypyrrole-polythionine-gold with glucose oxidase , was synthesised with a one-pot method using pyrrole and thionine as monomers, ammonium persulfate and HAuCl 4 as co-oxidant agents, and glucose oxidase as the doping agent. Combined with the hydrogel, a label-free amperometric immunoassay for the tumour marker neuron-specific enolase (NSE) was obtained. If operated at 0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), the sensor exhibited a wide liner range from 100 ng mL −1 to 1 pg mL −1 and ultralow detection limit of 0.65 pg mL −1 (S/N = 3). The presented method was further used for the analysis of human serum samples and showed good consistency with detection results from an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.

The synthesis of a nanocomposite gel polymer electrolytes (NGPEs) using Li + -functionalized SPEEK (SPEEK(Li)) nanofiber membrane as a matrix, cross-linked PVA as a gelled agent and LiClO 4 as an electrolytic salt for electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) were reported in this work. Compared with conventional PVA based gel electrolyte, the “SO 3 − Li + ” functional groups and the pores structure of the SPEEK(Li) nanofiber membrane improves the ionic conductivity as well as mechanical stability , which made the prepared NGPEs exhibited a high ionic conductivity of 8.9 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at ambient temperature and a large voltage stability window range from 0 to 2.0 V. The fabricated symmetric EDLCs showed a specific capacitance of 146.96 F g −1 at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 , with a maximum energy density of 18.26 W h kg −1 . Meanwhile, the EDLCs showed outstanding cyclical stability of 98% specific capacitance retention after 3000 cycles GCD testing, all of these results indicated that the NGPEs should be appropriate to EDLCs and next-generation energy storage systems .
