This study introduces a novel approach to prevent WSLs via a “bottom-up” mineralization strategy using phase-transitioned lysozyme (PTL) coatings. The PTL-induced mineralized layer, which is formed via a simple dipping method, promoted the growth of hydroxyapatite crystals in a layer-by-layer architecture, closely mimicking the composition and structure of natural enamel. Characterization revealed the excellent mechanical properties, acid resistance, and strong interfacial adhesion of the mineral layer. The protective efficacy of the PTL-induced layer is evaluated under controlled demineralization conditions and acid exposure induced by biofilms. The PTL layer effectively protected against acid challenges by acting as a sacrificial barrier and supporting repeated mineral deposition for repair. These findings demonstrate the potential of PTL coatings as a robust strategy for preventing the occurrence of WSLs during orthodontic treatment. By maintaining enamel integrity and enabling the repair of damaged surfaces, the PTL-induced mineralized layer offers a practical and innovative solution to one of the most persistent challenges in orthodontic care.</p>","PeriodicalId":115,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Interfaces","volume":"12 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/admi.202500499","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the integration of auxetic structures with negative Poisson ratios (NPRs) as reinforcement for concrete, leveraging advances in additive manufacturing to achieve enhanced mechanical properties. Three auxetic geometries, brick-and-mortar, bowtie, and tubular, are fabricated using aluminum, stainless steel, and polylactic acid (PLA) and are evaluated experimentally and numerically. Stainless steel tubular structures achieve a record compressive strength of 233 MPa, exceeding high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (HPFRC) at similar reinforcement volumes. In particular, auxetic aluminum tubular reinforcements demonstrate a specific compressive strength of 149 kJ g<sup>−1</sup>, equivalent to steel fiber reinforced concrete. Bowtie geometries improve toughness by redistributing stress, and tubular structures exhibit superior energy absorption and load redistribution. Finite element simulations reveal stress concentration mitigation and delay crack propagation, corroborating the experimental results. These findings highlight the significant impact of reinforcement geometry on structural performance and demonstrate that auxetic reinforcements can outperform conventional designs in strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation.

While absolute photocurrents remain modest, this enhancement reflects intrinsic modifications in charge transport and recombination behavior driven by Fe(III)-mediated structural reorganization.
