Abstract
Developing patches that effectively merge intrinsic deformation characteristics of cardiac with superior tunable mechanical properties remains a crucial biomedical pursuit. Currently used traditional block-shaped or mesh patches, typically incorporating a positive Poisson's ratio, often fall short of matching the deformation characteristics of cardiac tissue satisfactorily, thus often diminishing their repairing capability. By introducing auxeticity into the cardiac patches, this study is trying to present a beneficial approach to address these shortcomings of the traditional patches. The patches, featuring the auxetic effect, offer unparalleled conformity to the cardiac complex mechanical challenges. Initially, scaffolds demonstrating the auxetic effect were designed by merging chiral rotation and concave angle units, followed by integrating scaffolds with a composite hydrogel through thermally triggering, ensuring excellent biocompatibility closely mirroring heart tissue. Tensile tests revealed that auxetic patches possessed superior elasticity and strain capacity exceeding cardiac tissue's physiological activity. Notably, Model III showed an equivalent modulus ratio and Poisson's ratio closely toward cardiac tissue, underscoring its outstanding mechanical potential as cardiac patches. Cyclic tensile loading tests demonstrated that Model III withstood continuous heartbeats, showcasing outstanding cyclic loading and recovery capabilities. Numerical simulations further elucidated the deformation and failure mechanisms of these patches, leading to an exploration of influence on mechanical properties with alternative design parameters, which enabled the customization of mechanical strength and Poisson's ratio. Therefore, this research presents substantial potential for designing cardiac auxetic patches that can emulate the deformation properties of cardiac tissue and possess adjustable mechanical parameters.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) as a kind of novel energy storage devices have emerged to meet the urgent requirement of environmentally friendly clean energy storage equipment. However, unsatisfactory energy density and low operating voltage tremendously restrict their practical application. Herein, petal-like lamellar NiMn-layered double hydroxide (NiMn-LDH) was successfully fabricated through a simple Ni(NO3)2 etching method with Mn MOF-74 as a sacrificial template. This NiMn-LDH 3/NF electrode exhibited an improved specific capacitance of 1410.2 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1 (Mn MOF-74/NF: 172.2) owing to its high redox activity, compositional flexibility and intercalating capability. Importantly, NiMn-LDH was further optimized via a facile hydroperoxide treatment to harvest NiMn-LDH (O-LDH) with abundant oxygen vacancies, exhibiting remarkable improvement in specific capacitance (990%) compared to original MOF-74 before modification. The preparation of O-LDH enriches the electrode material engineering strategy and achieves improved electrochemical performance for application in new-generation SCs.
