Adding nanoparticles holds potential for enhancement, but it is challenging to accomplish and maintain a stable dispersion because of a tendency toward agglomeration. Surfactants are found to act as critical stabilizing agents that aid in the dispersion of nanoparticles and temporal stability through steric and electrostatic interactions at the oil-nanoparticle interface. This review closely evaluates the preparation methodologies of dielectric nanofluids, paying specific attention to the functionality of surfactants and temporal stability effects. Surfactant-treated nanofluids showed temporal stability from a few weeks to a few months along with significant enhancements: breakdown voltage (up to 93.17%), dielectric constant (up to 47.4%), decrease in dissipation factor (up to 97.3%), increase in resistivity (up to 917.93%), and enhancement in thermal conductivity (up to 216.2%). These enhancements are necessarily connected to interfacial alterations that control charge trapping, polarization, and phonon conduction. Gaps between theoretical models of dielectric constant (like Maxwell-Garnett and Loyang models and others) and experimental findings are resolved to recommend enhancement considering surfactant-induced interfacial effects. Also, sustainability aspects such as biodegradability, toxicity, recyclability, and regulatory compliance are discussed. This review's uniqueness lies in a detailed discussion of interfacial mechanisms, model enhancements, and eco-friendly surfactant design, and suggestions for entering into molecular dynamics and interfacial modelling to rationally design environmentally sustainable, high-performance dielectric nanofluids.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":239,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Colloid and Interface Science","volume":"346 ","pages":"Article 103668"},"PeriodicalIF":19.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145088229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Solid particles play a critical role in ensuring the stability and functionality of emulsions. Smart PEs with stimuli-responsive can respond to external stimuli such as pH, CO₂, temperature, light and magnetism to regulate the stability of the emulsion (emulsification or demulsification) and smartly control the release of the encapsulated active ingredient, making them highly valued across multiple industries, exceptionally in the preparation of advanced packaging materials. But conventional solid particles cannot endow the ability with stimuli-response to PEs. As a result, surface functionalization emerges as an essential approach for introducing stimuli responsiveness for nanoparticles as stabilizers of Smart PEs. This review introduces the stabilization mechanism and influencing factors of PEs, summarizes the stimuli-responsive mechanisms of nanoparticles for smart PEs and focus on functionalization employed to introduce stimuli responsiveness for nanoparticles. There has been a significant advance in surface modification of nanoparticles, employing the approaches of chemical grafting, electrostatic adsorption, self-assembly, co-precipitation and encapsulation. Meanwhile, the applications of smart PEs in active packaging, indicator packaging, self-healing packaging, and degradable packaging are presented. The current challenges and future directions of smart PEs applying to advanced packaging materials are also outlined. These insights will be invaluable for optimizing functions of smart PEs and broadening their application potential across various fields.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":239,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Colloid and Interface Science","volume":"346 ","pages":"Article 103673"},"PeriodicalIF":19.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145088245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review critically explores the role of nanomaterials (NMs) in the 3-Rs of P management: removal, recovery, and reuse, with a focus on their removal performance, mechanisms, and potential applications. Our analysis highlights that the deposition of metal oxide nanomaterials on support matrices (e.g., clay, biochar, 2D materials) and their entrapment in polymer matrices significantly enhances removal efficiency. The removal process is surface-controlled, influenced by nanomaterial properties, solution chemistry, and competing ions. The recovery and reuse of P-sorbed nanomaterials are evaluated under various scenarios, emphasizing their future potential and proposing improvements to enhance performance.

PFAS possess strong carbon‑fluorine bonds that confer exceptional chemical stability and resistance to natural degradation; their fluorinated chains are highly hydrophobic and oleophobic, while their polar functional groups contribute to amphiphilic behavior and water solubility. Certain PFAS thus pose serious risks to living organisms, especially mammals. Membrane filtration is recognized as a particularly effective technique, achieving removal efficiencies greater than 99 % for long-chain-PFAS (including anionic, cationic, and zwitterionic PFAS molecules). However, many conventional membrane processes rely on petroleum-based polymers and non-biodegradable materials which lead to significant sustainability concerns. The disposal of these materials harms the environment and contributes to secondary pollution. In this review, biopolymers are presented as alternatives and their different sources are categorized and discussed in detail. Further, the latest applications of commercial membranes for PFAS removal are discussed and compared with those of biopolymer-based membranes (BBMs). Finally, recommendations for advancing PFAS removal using BBMs are provided, and current knowledge gaps are highlighted.
