To tackle the high volatility, hydrophobicity and instability that limited cinnamaldehyde (CMA) in practical applications, CMA nanoemulsion (CNE) synergistically stabilized by cinnamic acid (CA) and Tween-80 were successfully prepared and characterized by ultrasonic emulsification treatment. The results showed that the CNE particle size was uniform (105.54 ± 2.14 nm). The CMA in CNE showed better slow-release properties under sealed conditions (22.68 ± 2.81% on day 10). The heat stability, freeze–thaw stability and storage stability of CNE showed good stability during 10 d storage period. Sensory and physicochemical property analyses indicated that the CNE was released headspace under non-contact conditions, reducing the impact on the flavor of chilled beef. It also effectively mitigated the increase in pH, juice loss and the increase in total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS), and total number of microbial colonies (TNC) of chilled beef during refrigeration.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in regulating lipid digestion through the construction of various interfacial structures. In the present work, a series of complex interfacial structures were designed by combining Tween 80 in the aqueous phase and lecithin in the oil phase at different concentration ratios. The emulsification properties, the roles in regulating lipid digestion, and the interfacial dilatational rheological properties of the composite emulsifying systems were characterized. The results showed that the combination of Tween 80 and lecithin at different ratios could effectively modulate the rate of lipid digestion. The polyoxyethylene chains of Tween 80 formed a network, that provided a spatial obstacle for the adsorption of bile salts and lipases. Thus, Tween 80 significantly delayed the lipid digestion. The introduction of lecithin gradually replaced Tween 80 molecules at the interface, thus providing space for the adsorption of bile salts and lipases. In addition, as the ratio of lecithin concentration to Tween 80 increased, lecithin gradually became the dominant factor in the interfacial properties. As a result, the rate of lipid digestion was accelerated. Therefore, by compounding different ratios of lecithin and Tween 80, a series of emulsions with different lipid digestion rates were obtained. This research provides a basis for rationally designing food emulsions according to specific needs.

This study systematically investigated the crucial interfacial mechanisms regulating lipid digestion using Tween surfactants with varying structural features. In vitro digestion revealed that, Tween 40/Tween 60 strongly inhibited, Tween 20/Tween 80 significantly delayed, while Tween 81/Tween 85 minimally affected lipid digestion. Tween surfactants modulated lipid digestions primarily by competing with bile salts for interfacial adsorption rather than inactivating the lipase. The emulsifiers with appropriate hydrophilic and lipophilic balance (HLB) and small critical packing parameter (CPP), like Tween 40/Tween 60, anchored to the interface and provided steric hinderance, thus inhibited the displacement by bile salts. In addition, those interfacial layers that inhibited the diffusive exchange of amphiphiles between the interface and the bulk phase, but maintained viscoelasticity through molecular conformational rearrangement or lateral molecular reorganization, could inhibit the bile salts adsorption and thus modulate lipid digestion effectively. These findings established interfacial design principles for tailored lipid digestion control in food emulsions.

Blade-coated FAPbI3 films enable scalable PSCs but suffer from uncontrolled crystallization, impairing performance. We introduce a viscous nonionic surfactant, Tween-80 (polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monooleate, Mw = 428.6), to induce vertical recrystallization on the upper surface of FAPbI3 films. We find that the abundant hydroxyl (–OH) groups in Tween-80 can coordinate with Pb2+ and FA+ in the perovskite lattice, facilitating secondary nucleation and oriented crystal growth. Notably, surfactants with long alkyl chains and hydroxyl groups are known to strongly tune the perovskite crystallinity. This treatment yields FAPbI3 films with vertically aligned grains and a more oriented microstructure. As a result, small-area PSCs achieve a champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 23.29%. Furthermore, these devices exhibit operational stability, retaining 97.82% and 91.48% of their initial PCE after 1800 h of aging under N2 conditions (O2, H2O <0.1 ppm) and atmospheric conditions (30 ± 5% RH, 25 °C), respectively. Notably, large-area devices with a total area of 7 × 7 cm2 (aperture area of 21 cm2) deliver a high PCE of 19.71%, demonstrating excellent compatibility with scalable fabrication. This work provides a simple and effective surface recrystallization strategy for producing high-quality, vertically oriented FAPbI3 films for industrial-scale PSC applications.

The occurrence of crop fungal diseases is closely related to warm environmental conditions. In order to control the release of fungicides in response to warm conditions, and enhance the efficacy, a series of thermo-responsive fungicide-loaded nanoparticles were developed. The fungicide azoxystrobin, solvent DEP, emulsifier Tween 80 and thermo-responsive component TDA were combined to create thermal-response oil phases, conditions for emulsification were then optimized. LDLS, zeta potential, FTIR, DSC, TGA, XRD, SEM and antifungal efficacy assays were carried out to investigate the characteristics and forming mechanism. The results indicated that the formula with 5 g azoxystrobin, 10 mL DEP, 6 mL Tween 80 and 2.5 g TDA constructed the proposed oil phase with the ability to transform from solid at 20 °C to softerned at 31.5 °C. Both DEP and TDA played key roles in interfering with the crystallization of azoxystrobin. The optimal T3t-c12 nanoparticles had a mean particle size of 162.1 nm, thermo-responsive morphological transformation between 20 °C and 30 °C, AZO crystal reforming after drying, the ability to attach to fungal spores and satisfied antifungal efficacy againstP. nicotianaPNgz07 andA. nigerA1513 at 30 °C. This report provides referable technical support for the construction of smart-release nanoparticles of other agrochemicals.

The interface interactions in Pickering emulsions are determined by the molecules interaction at the microscopic scale in essence. The interfacial properties of β-CD/Tween 60 co-stabilized emulsions were investigated experimentally and numerically. The results show that Tween 60 can increased the hydrophilicity of β-CD. The interface thickness of the β-CD/Tween 60 co-stabilized emulsion is about twice as thick as that of β-CD stabilized system. The formation of hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interaction between β-CD and Tween 60 might be the reason for the variation of surface characteristics of β-CD. Besides, it was demonstrated that the alkyl chain end of Tween 60 can enter into the cavity of β-CD, indicating the formation of the assemblies, approximately 20–30 hydrogen bonds were formed. The magnitude of van der Waals interactions exceeds that of electrostatic interaction, indicating that both hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions are the main driving force.

The two-dimensional nano MXenes have unique microstructures and physicochemical properties, showing great potential in enhancing or replacing traditional metal processing lubricants. Here, a stable oil-in-water emulsion was constructed by coassembling Ti3C2TX MXene modified with phosphonic acid containing C10 alkyl chain and Tween 80 at the oil–water interface. The emulsion exhibits efficient friction-reducing and antiwear performance as well as corrosion resistance. The effect originates from the formation of a physical adsorption film and tribochemical reaction film stabilized by the interlocking of long carbon chains on the friction interface. This study provides a model of “material functionalization-interface synergy” for developing metal processing lubricants.

In this work, we designed a simple and intelligent method to detect cyromazine. After original citrate stabilized AuNPs were modified with Tween 20, they could remain stable under complex conditions of different pH values (5.5–8.0) and high ionic strength. However, after the addition of cyromazine, ligand exchange occurred with the citrate ion on the surface of Tween 20–AuNPs, resulting in instability and aggregation of Tween 20–AuNPs. At the same time, a new absorption peak appeared near 630 nm, and the color changed from red to blue. This method has been successfully applied to the detection of cyromazine in milk and cucumber. Furthermore, this method was used in conjunction with a smartphone to intelligently detect and analyze cyromazine at concentrations as low as 0.04 mg kg−1.

This study prepares food-grade nanodiscs using Tween 80 and lecithin. Initially, the formation process of the nanodiscs was observed, starting with the transformation of the hollow vesicle structure of lecithin into a notched vesicle structure, followed by the development of solid core nanodiscs, and ultimately into a cylindrical structure. The results from ITC indicated that hydrophobic interaction was the primary driving force behind the self-assembly of the nanodiscs with the binding ratio of lecithin to Tween 80 being 10:1. Owing to curvature effects, lecithin self-assembled into planar regions, while Tween 80 self-assembled into the edge regions. In comparison to hydrated liposomes, nanodiscs exhibited a smaller size, along with significant changes in molecular ordering, surface hydrophobicity, and microenvironment polarity of the phospholipid bilayers. Additionally, nanodiscs demonstrated superior encapsulation properties. This study elucidated the self-assembly process and structure of nanodiscs using food-grade ingredients, emphasizing their potential as delivery systems for food applications.

Artemisinin has an endoperoxide bridge structure, which can be cleaved by ferrous ions to generate various carbonyl radicals in an oxygen-independent manner, highlighting its potential for treating hypoxic tumors. In our study, we fabricated Tween 80 micelles loaded with Fe3O4nanoparticles and artemisinin for cancer therapy. The synthesized Fe3O4nanoparticles and drug-loaded micelles have particle sizes of about 5 nm and 80 nm, respectively, both exhibiting excellent dispersibility and stability. After uptake by MCF-7 cells, drug-loaded micelles release Fe2+and ART into the cytoplasm, effectively inducing the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hypoxic conditions, thereby enhancing toxicity against cancer cells. In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that ART and Fe3O4nanoparticles are encapsulated in Tween 80 to form micelles, which effectively prevent premature release during circulation in the body. Although free ART and Fe3O4nanoparticles can inhibit tumor growth, TW80-Fe3O4-ART micelles demonstrate a more pronounced inhibitory effect, with a tumor suppression rate of up to 85%. A novel strategy based on artemisinin and ferroptosis is thus offered, holding a favorable prospect for hypoxic cancer therapy.

Abstract Lignin removal from lignocellulosic materials plays a great role in the utilization cellulose with high efficiency. In order to improve the quality of reconstituted tobacco sheet, lignin existed in tobacco stem was removed by enzymatic hydrolysis with laccase enhanced by weak alkali treatment together with the addition of Tween 80 into laccase treatment system. It is found that lignin was partially removed by laccase. The treatment of tobacco stem with NaHCO 3 resulted in the dissolution of lignin, and hence increased the porosity and specific surface area of the pretreated tobacco stem. Consequently, laccase could access to the tobacco stem more completely. The surface activity and dispersion of Tween 80 improved laccase activity, solubilization of degraded products of lignin, and contact interface between laccase and tobacco stem. The synergistic action of laccase, weak alkali and Tween 80 improved the ratio of lignin removal significantly, reaching as high as 40.3%. Graphical Abstract

Using non-amphiphilic polysaccharide to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions is still a challenge in food industry. Polysaccharide microgels showed emulsifying capacity, however, the stability of the formed emulsions is far from the requirements of the food industry. In this work, agarose microgel/Tween-20 suspensions were prepared and further employed in oil-in-water emulsion stabilization. Focuses were taken on the impact of Tween-20 on the emulsifying properties of agarose microgels. Results suggested that Tween-20 could complex with agarose microgels, and microamounts of Tween-20 (0.02 wt%) could apparently improve the emulsifying performance of microgels. Dynamic interfacial pressure and interfacial adsorption of microgels indicated that appropriate amount of Tween-20 (≤0.04 wt%) could benefit the interfacial adsorption of agarose microgels, while excessive Tween-20 (≥0.08 wt%) could compete with agarose microgels for adsorption sites on oil/water interface. Results of this work supporting that surfactant complexing could be a promising solution to prepare polysaccharides based Mickering emulsions.
