In the present study, inorganic bioactive glass (BG) and organic polycaprolactone (PCL) are effectively combined by electrospinning and electrospray techniques to construct three-dimensional (3D) BG/PCL microfibrous spheres for the repair of bulk bone defects. The hybrid fibers, as well as the as-obtained 3D structure, can mimic the composition and architecture of native bone tissues. Furthermore, the BG/PCL microfibrous spheres show excellent biocompatibility and provide sufficient space and attachment sites for cell growth. The osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells is also effectively facilitated when cultured on such hybrid microfibrous spheres. In vivo investigation utilizing rat femoral condyle bone defect models demonstrates that the BG/PCL microfibrous spheres loaded with bone mesenchymal stem cells can induce angiogenesis and promote the upregulation of bone-related protein expression, thus effectively facilitating bone regeneration at the defect site. The collective findings indicate that such BG/PCL hybrid microfibrous spheres have the potential to be effective carriers of stem cells. The microfibrous spheres loaded with stem cells have promising potential to be utilized as implantable biomaterials for the repair of bone defects.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":459,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Fiber Materials","volume":"175 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To construct efficient ACEL fibers, a judiciously designed and low-cost electrode is also extremely important but seems to receive less attention. Inspired by fiber dyeing, we propose a method that employs non-noble metals to design fiber electrodes by constructing microconductive channels inside commercial fibers. This method relies on the window period formed by the glass transition temperature of the PAN fibers, which is sufficiently flexible to extend to mass production at a low cost (approximately US$ 1.86/kg). The resulting ACEL fibers interwoven with a transparent fiber electrode formed a textile display with an acceptable luminescence performance of 46 cd<i>·</i>m⁻² (160 V). Notably, a visual feedback e-textile (VFET) was constructed by integrating fiber sensors, which demonstrates the concept of wearable real-time visual monitoring and interaction. Compared with their individual counterparts, VFET has been conveniently and efficiently for visual monitoring, communication, and interaction, i.e., the visualization of physiological parameters (heartbeat, respiration, etc.) and nonverbal communications (literal or cryptographic) for special groups and specific scenes.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":459,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Fiber Materials","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142199991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, a thick electrode reinforced by a stainless-steel (SS) fiber three-dimensional (3D) current collector is proposed that simultaneously attains unprecedented flexibility and a high energy density. This ultra-flexible electrode is prepared by a thermally induced phase separation process. Its meso/macroporosity enhances ionic conductivity, and the 3D fiber reinforcement enhances interfacial adhesion, flexural durability, and electrical conductivity. Owing to these advantages, the fiber-reinforced electrode has a minimum bending radius of 3 mm owing to its high yield strain (13%) and attains a high energy density of 500 Wh·L⁻¹, which is considerably higher than that of previous flexible batteries (100–350 Wh·L⁻¹). In contrast with the same electrode coated on metal foil, which suffers from delamination, the fiber-reinforced electrode is delamination-free and outperforms in rate capability and cycling performance. Unlike conventional current collectors (foil, mesh, or foam), the SS fiber can be tailored to be distributed throughout the electrode and to fit the electrode form factor. Fiber-reinforced electrodes are also excellent at creating 3D free-form batteries, which are difficult to fabricate with conventional electrode structures.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":459,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Fiber Materials","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142199918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, these materials hold a huge potential as the continuous power supply for wearable devices. Herein, we reported the preparation of a series of vinylene-linked triazole-cored covalent organic frameworks (COFs) by Knoevenagel condensation of 2, 4, 6-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-triazine as the core monomer. The as-prepared COFs tend to generate the nano- or micro-fiber morphologies with tunable lengths and diameters through changing the polyphenylene building blocks. Accordingly, these COF fibers could be readily composited with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to form the flexible free-standing films upon a simple vacuum filtration method. A film sample containing 30 wt% g-C₁₈N₃-COF exhibited the highest power factor of 68.93 μW/(m K²) at 420 K.

After bending for 1000 times at a radius of 15 mm, the resistance change rate of the as-fabricated f-TEGs was less than 5%, exhibiting excellent stability and flexibility.
