Tuning magnetic response and ionic conductivity of electrospun hybrid membranes...
Hermenegildo, Bruno Filipe Costa; Correia, Daniela Maria Silva; Ribeiro, Clarisse Marta Oliveira; Serra, J. P.; Pérez, L.; Vilas-Vilela, José L.Electrospun membranes play an increasing role in tissue regeneration base on their suitable morphological features. The implementation of active response, such as magnetically responsiveness or piezo-ionic features can further improve tissue regeneration by better resembling varying microenvironment during cell culture. In this context, this work reports on the development of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) or...
Tailoring silk fibroin separator membranes pore size for improving performance ...
Reizabal, A.; Gonçalves, R.; Fidalgo-Marijuan, A.; Costa, Carlos Miguel Silva; Pérez, L.; Vilas, J.-L.; Lanceros-Méndez, S.The search of natural materials for their application in energy storage systems in general and batteries in particular is growing due to their promising properties and the need of environmental sustainability. Silk fibroin (SF) is one of those materials due to their mechanical and thermal properties, non-toxicity and biocompatibility. Further, SF exhibits excellent cycling performance as separator for lithium-i...
