Bacteriophage (phage) colloidal bionanoparticles garnered significant interest in colloid and interface science for their unique structural, interfacial, and self-assembly properties, as well as their potential for biomedical applications. The global rise of drug-resistant bacteria presented an urgent global health challenge, contributing to millions of deaths annually. Phages offered a promising alternative to antibiotics due to their high specificity and minimal side effects, and they also found diverse applications in environmental disinfection, food safety, and biomaterial engineering. However, large-scale phage manufacture remained a considerable challenge due to the complexity of production pipelines and the need to control contaminants that could compromise both safety and efficacy. In this review, we provided a comprehensive overview of phage acquisition, identification, and propagation methods, followed by an in-depth examination of advanced approaches for phage concentration and purification. We particularly emphasized how colloidal and interfacial phenomena could be leveraged to optimize the stability and functionality of phage colloidal bionanoparticles. We further presented an integrated framework for enhancing phage purification processes to ensure high bioactivity and broad applicability in clinical and industrial contexts. Lastly, we highlighted the need for tailoring propagation and purification protocols to specific phages to meet increasing demands for tissue regeneration, disease therapy, and beyond. By addressing these interdisciplinary challenges, this review underscored the substantial promise of phage colloidal bionanoparticles in generating significant economic and societal benefits.

During recent times, the study of two-dimensional anionic layered materials (ALMs) has become an area of significant research. ALMs exhibit a wide spectrum of structural characteristics involving simple exchange of anions within the interlayer region, i.e., anion-exchange as well as the intercalation of various complex guest species, enabling control over chemical composition and surface functionalities. The present review comprehensively summarizes the synthesis of layered double hydroxides and their derivatives via conventional and novel synthetic methodologies for enhancing the physical, chemical, optical, and catalytic properties of layered materials. Further, a detailed overview of the structural chemistry, compositional flexibility, anion exchange behaviour, surface modification, topotactic transformation, and colloidal stability that act as key attributes for governing their functional performance and adaptability in diverse applications has also been discussed. The review further highlights the integral role of advanced spectroscopic and microscopic techniques—including powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and electron microscopy—in elucidating the layered framework and verifying intercalation phenomena. The applications of ALMs across diverse fields, including water remediation, ceramics, biomedicine, antimicrobial agents, biosensing, and display technologies have also been critically examined. We believe that this review holds immense potential to deepen the understanding of structural chemistry, properties, and applications of ALMs, underscoring their promising role in sustainable technology development and advanced functional materials.

近年来，二维阴离子层状材料的研究已成为一个重要的研究领域。ALMs表现出广泛的结构特征，包括层间区域内阴离子的简单交换，即阴离子交换以及各种复杂客体的插入，从而能够控制化学成分和表面功能。本文综述了层状双氢氧化物及其衍生物的合成方法，通过传统的和新的合成方法来提高层状材料的物理、化学、光学和催化性能。此外，还详细概述了结构化学，组成柔韧性，阴离子交换行为，表面改性，拓扑转变和胶体稳定性，这些都是控制其功能性能和各种应用适应性的关键属性。本文进一步强调了先进的光谱和显微技术——包括粉末x射线衍射（PXRD）、傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）和电子显微镜——在阐明层状框架和验证插层现象方面的重要作用。alm在不同领域的应用，包括水修复、陶瓷、生物医学、抗菌剂、生物传感和显示技术也得到了严格的审查。我们相信这篇综述具有巨大的潜力，可以加深对alm的结构化学，性质和应用的理解，强调它们在可持续技术发展和先进功能材料中的重要作用。

CO₂-assisted oil recovery and related separation processes rely fundamentally on the generation, transport, and interfacial interactions of gas bubbles in complex liquid systems. In oil–water–CO₂ environments, bubble dynamics govern mobility control, sweep efficiency, and consequently residual oil recovery, with implications for carbon storage. This review develops a bubble lifecycle framework that links these microscale processes to the performance of CO₂-enhanced oil recovery (CO₂-EOR) strategies such as carbonated water injection (CWI), water-alternating-gas (WAG), and foam flooding. Unlike prior reviews that emphasize largely materials-focused or centered on fundamental colloid science of bubble dynamics, this work highlights a multiscale perspective that bridges bubble physics with CO₂-EOR. Geological carbon storage is discussed as a relevant co-benefit, but the primary focus remains on CO₂-EOR. By consolidating dispersed findings and identifying unresolved challenges, this review establishes bubble dynamics as a mechanistic bridge between interfacial science and reservoir engineering, providing guidance for future research and application.

二氧化碳辅助采油和相关分离过程从根本上依赖于复杂液体系统中气泡的产生、输送和界面相互作用。在油水-二氧化碳环境中，气泡动力学控制着流动性控制、波及效率，从而影响着剩余油采收率，并影响着碳储量。本文建立了一个气泡生命周期框架，将这些微尺度过程与二氧化碳提高采收率（CO2-EOR）策略（如碳酸注水（CWI）、水-气交替（WAG）和泡沫驱）的性能联系起来。与之前的评论主要强调以材料为中心或以气泡动力学的基础胶体科学为中心不同，这项工作强调了一个多尺度的视角，将气泡物理与CO2-EOR联系起来。地质碳储存作为相关的协同效益进行了讨论，但主要焦点仍然是CO2-EOR。通过整合分散的研究成果和确定尚未解决的挑战，本文将气泡动力学建立为界面科学与油藏工程之间的机制桥梁，为未来的研究和应用提供指导。

This study elucidates the microscopic dispersion mechanism of surfactants in coal-water slurry through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The research systematically investigates the adsorption behavior and regulatory roles of nonionic, cationic, amphoteric, and anionic surfactants at the coal-water interface. Specifically, nonionic surfactants reduce interfacial tension via hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions; cationic surfactants enhance dispersion through charge neutralization; while polycarboxylic anionic surfactants improve the rheological properties of the slurry by means of electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance. By integrating the Materials Studio platform, this study systematically analyzed key simulation methodologies, including force field selection, adsorption energy calculation, and adsorption configuration determination. The underlying microscopic mechanisms were further validated through experimental techniques such as atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The research critically examined the current limitations of molecular dynamics simulations, such as model simplification and high computational costs, and highlighted the promising applications of machine learning in areas including force field optimization, conformational sampling, and performance prediction. Furthermore, a strategic approach was proposed that combines multi-scale simulation methods (e.g., dissipative particle dynamics, DPD) with high-precision force fields to improve both simulation efficiency and predictive accuracy. This study not only elucidates the molecular-level mechanisms by which surfactants regulate the dispersion and stability of coal-water slurry, but also establishes a robust theoretical foundation and technical framework for the rational design and practical application of high-performance, eco-friendly coal-water slurry dispersants.

This article reviews the improvement of photopolymerization, primarily in terms of its rate, degree of conversion, and resolution, using nanoparticles. The studies identified in the current literature and available in indexed databases are thoroughly examined, with key findings discussed and summarized. The nanoparticles identified include metallic, semiconducting, upconversion, insulating, and other types. The primary mechanisms that enhance photopolymerization are localized surface plasmon resonance, photocatalytic effect, upconversion, and two-photon absorption. These studies are categorized accordingly. The methods used to assess the ability of nanoparticles to improve photopolymerization vary depending on the type of nanoparticle, the resin formulation, and the intended application. Consequently, we also examine the various assessment methods employed in these studies. Furthermore, we highlight the rapidly advancing field of additive manufacturing, particularly vat photopolymerization, which could greatly benefit from improvements in photopolymerization research.

The global demand for effective tissue regeneration strategies continues to rise due to the increasing burden of trauma, chronic diseases, and age-related tissue degeneration. Hydrogels are widely explored as promising biomaterials for tissue engineering due to their high water content, swelling capacity, ability to absorb liquid exudates, flexible structure, and structural resemblance to the extracellular matrix. Under appropriate design and formulation, many hydrogels also demonstrate favorable levels of biocompatibility; however, this property can vary depending on the composition, crosslinking chemistry, and degradation products of the hydrogel. Among the key design parameters, the mechanical properties of hydrogels are critical determinants of their success in tissue engineering, as they directly govern cell–matrix interactions through mechanotransduction. The stiffness and viscoelasticity of the scaffold influence cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, and lineage commitment, while adequate compressive strength and shear resistance are required to preserve structural integrity under physiological loads. Precise tuning of these parameters is essential to reproduce the biomechanical milieu of native tissues and to achieve functional regeneration. Hydrogels are diverse in origin and chemistry, ranging from natural polymers to synthetic and charged networks, each offering unique advantages and limitations. Their versatility has enabled the development of application-specific scaffolds for skin, bone, cartilage, neural, and cardiac tissue regeneration. However, challenges remain in achieving mechanical robustness, long-term stability, and functional integration in vivo. Advances in material science and crosslinking technologies continue to drive the evolution of hydrogel systems with improved mechanical performance and biological response. This review presents a comprehensive scientific perspective on the significance of mechanical properties in hydrogel-based scaffolds and their relevance to tissue-specific applications, offering insights into future directions in regenerative medicine.

由于创伤、慢性疾病和与年龄相关的组织变性负担的增加，全球对有效组织再生策略的需求持续上升。水凝胶由于其高含水量、膨胀能力、吸收液体渗出物的能力、灵活的结构以及与细胞外基质的结构相似性而被广泛探索为有前途的组织工程生物材料。在适当的设计和配方下，许多水凝胶也表现出良好的生物相容性；然而，这种性质可以根据水凝胶的组成、交联化学和降解产物而变化。在关键的设计参数中，水凝胶的机械性能是其在组织工程中成功的关键决定因素，因为它们通过机械转导直接控制细胞-基质的相互作用。支架的刚度和粘弹性影响细胞粘附、迁移、增殖和谱系承诺，同时需要足够的抗压强度和抗剪切能力来保持生理载荷下的结构完整性。这些参数的精确调整对于再现原生组织的生物力学环境和实现功能再生至关重要。水凝胶的来源和化学成分多种多样，从天然聚合物到合成和带电网络，每种都有其独特的优点和局限性。它们的多功能性使得开发用于皮肤、骨骼、软骨、神经和心脏组织再生的专用支架成为可能。然而，在实现机械稳健性、长期稳定性和体内功能整合方面仍然存在挑战。材料科学和交联技术的进步不断推动水凝胶体系的发展，提高了其机械性能和生物反应。本文综述了水凝胶支架力学性能的科学意义及其与组织特异性应用的相关性，为再生医学的未来发展方向提供了见解。

We further aim to shed light on the interaction of CNCs with selective additives to improve the material performance and functionality. This paper also provides insights into the latest technological applications of CNC photonic materials in various fields such as smart sensors, biomedical devices, flexible displays and passive daytime-colored radiative coolers.
