Abstract
Various methods have been used to treat bone defects caused by genetic disorders, injury, or disease. Yet, there is still great need to develop alternative approaches to repair damaged bone tissue. Bones naturally exhibit piezoelectric potential, or the ability to convert mechanical stresses into electrical impulses. This phenomenon has been utilized clinically to enhance bone regeneration in conjunction with electrical stimulation (ES) therapies; however, oftentimes with critical-sized bone defects, the bioelectric potential at the site of injury is compromised, resulting in less desirable outcomes. In the present study, the potential of a 3D-printed conductive polymer blend to enhance bone formation through restoration of the bioelectrical microenvironment was evaluated. A commercially available 3D printer was used to create circular, thin-film scaffolds consisting of either polylactide (PLA) or a conductive PLA (CPLA) composite. Preosteoblast cells were seeded onto the scaffolds and subjected to direct current ES via a purpose-built cell culture chamber. It was found that CPLA scaffolds had no adverse effects on cell viability, proliferation or differentiation when compared with control scaffolds. The addition of ES, however, resulted in a significant increase in the expression of osteocalcin, a protein indicative of osteoblast maturation, after 14 days of culture. Furthermore, xylenol orange staining also showed the presence of increased mineralized calcium nodules in cultures undergoing stimulation. This study demonstrates the potential for low-cost, conductive scaffolding materials to support cell viability and enhance in vitro mineralization in conjunction with ES.

Abstract
The present study elucidates the role of surface oxygen functional groups on the electrochemical behavior of porous carbons when used as anodes for Li-ion batteries. To achieve this objective, a carbon xerogel (CX) obtained by pyrolysis of a resorcinol-formaldehyde gel, was modified by different postsynthesis treatments in order to modulate its surface chemistry while maintaining its external surface constant. Various surface modifications were obtained by oxidation in air, in situ polymerization of dopamine, and finally by grafting of a polyethylene oxide layer on the polydopamine coating. While oxidation in air did not affect the pore texture of the CX, modifications by coating techniques substantially decreased the micropore fraction. Detailed electrochemical characterizations of the materials processed as electrodes were performed by capacitance measurements and galvanostatic cycling. Surface chemistry results, from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, show that the accessibility and the capacity increase when carbonyl (R-C═O) groups are formed on the CX, but not with oxides and hydroxyls. The amount of surface carbonyls, and in particular, aldehyde (O═CH) groups, is found to be the key parameter because it is directly correlated with the modified CX electrochemical behavior. Overall, the explored surface coatings tend to reduce the micropore volume and add mainly hydroxyl functional groups but hardly change the Li+ insertion/deinsertion capacities, while oxidation in air adds carbonyl groups, increasing the Li+ ion storage capacity, thanks to an improved accessibility to the carbon network, which is not caused by any textural change.

Abstract
Although being incorporated in commercial lithium-ion batteries for a while, the weight portion of silicon monoxide (SiOx , x ≈ 1) is only less than 10 wt% due to the insufficient cycle life. Along this line, polymeric binders that can assist in maintaining the mechanical integrity and interfacial stability of SiOx electrodes are desired to realize higher contents of SiOx . Herein, a pyrene-poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)-polyrotaxane (PR) supramolecular network is reported as a polymeric binder for SiOx with 100 wt%. The noncovalent functionalization of a carbon coating layer on the SiOx is achieved by using a hydroxylated pyrene derivative via the π-π stacking interaction, which simultaneously enables hydrogen bonding interactions with the PR-PAA network through its hydroxyl moiety. Moreover, the PR's ring sliding while being crosslinked to PAA endows a high elasticity to the entire polymer network, effectively buffering the volume expansion of SiOx and largely mitigating the electrode swelling. Based on these extraordinary physicochemical properties of the pyrene-PAA-PR supramolecular binder, the robust cycling of SiOx electrodes is demonstrated at commercial levels of areal loading in both half-cell and full-cell configurations.

Abstract
In this work, surface-functionalized microcapsules from porous carbon nanospheres (PCNs) were successfully prepared by mussel-inspired chemistry with polydopamine (PDA) and metal-free photoinduced electron transfer-atom transfer radical polymerization (PET-ATRP). These functional microcapsules are introduced into self-healing hydrogels to enhance their mechanical strength. The PCNs synthesized by a simple soft template method are mixed with linseed oil for loading of the biomass healing agent, and the microcapsules are first prepared by coating PDA. PDA coatings were used to immobilize the ATRP initiator for initiating 4-vinylpyridine on the surface of microcapsules by PET-ATRP. Using these functional microcapsules, the self-healing efficiency was about 92.5% after 4 h at ambient temperature and the healed tensile strength can be held at 2.5 MPa with a fracture strain of 625.2%. All results indicated that the surface-functionalized microcapsules for self-healing hydrogels have remarkable biocompatibility and mechanical properties.

Abstract
Marine mussel inspired polydopamine (PDA) has received increased attention due to its good thermal and chemical stability as well as strong adhesion on most materials. In this work, high-performance nanofiltration membranes based on interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) incorporating PDA and polybenzimidazole (PBI) were developed for organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN). Generally, in order to obtain solvent stability, polymers need to be covalently cross-linked under harsh conditions, which inevitably leads to losses in permeability and mechanical flexibility. Surprisingly, by in situ polymerization of dopamine within a PBI support, excellent solvent resistance and permeance of polar aprotic solvents were obtained without covalent cross-linking of the PBI backbone due to the formation of an IPN. The molecular weight cutoff and permeance of the membranes can be fine-tuned by changing the polymerization time. Robust membrane performance was achieved in conventional and emerging green polar aprotic solvents (PAS) in a wide temperature range covering -10 °C to +100 °C. It was successfully demonstrated that the in situ polymerization of PDA-creating an IPN-can provide a simple and green alternative to covalent cross-linking of membranes. To elucidate the nature of the solvent stability, a detailed analysis was performed that revealed that physical entanglement along with strong secondary interaction synergistically enable solvent resistance with as low as 1-3% PDA content.

Abstract
The development of a simple but effective surface modification method is very important for the construction of biosensing interfaces. In this work, a postsynthetic water-soluble epinephrine-melanin (EPM) prepared from the self-polymerization of epinephrine has been demonstrated as an alternative of the widely used in situ formed polydopamine (PDA) for the surface coating of TiO2 nanoparticles and the construction of a photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing interface. In contrast to the formation of insoluble aggregates in solution for dopamine, a homogeneous solution was obtained for epinephrine after the self-polymerization. The use of EPM as a postsynthetic material enables the surface coating of TiO2 with the simple drop-casting method. Compared with the widely used dip-coating method for in situ PDA modification, the developed drop-casting method based on the use of water-soluble postsynthetic EPM saves more time, avoids the waste of bulk solution, and undoubtedly decreases the batch-to-batch inconsistencies. The simple coating of commercially available TiO2 nanoparticles with EPM greatly enhances the PEC performance due to the charge transfer property of EPM. The application of EPM in the construction of the PEC biosensing interface was demonstrated by the immobilization of a model biorecognition element (prostate specific antigen (PSA) antibody) onto EPM modified indium tin oxide (ITO) photoanode. Sensitive detection of PSA with high selectivity and stability was obtained on the basis of the biological recognition ability of PSA antibody. This work may renew the use of postsynthetic melanin-like biopolymers in other fields.

Abstract
Metal oxides as anode materials for lithium storage suffer from poor cycling stability due to their conversion mechanisms. Here, we report an efficient biomimetic method to fabricate a conformal coating of conductive polymer on ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles, which shows outstanding electrochemical performance as anode material for lithium storage. Polydopamine (PDA) film, a bionic ionic permeable film, was successfully coated on the surfaces of ZnFe2O4 particles by the self-polymerization of dopamine in the presence of an alkaline buffer solution. The thickness of PDA coating layer was tunable by controlling the reaction time, and the obtained ZnFe2O4/PDA sample with 8 nm coating layer exhibited an outstanding electrochemical performance in terms of cycling stability and rate capability. ZnFe2O4/PDA composites delivered an initial discharge capacity of 2079 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 and showed a minimum capacity decay after 150 cycles. Importantly, the coating layer improved the rate capability of composites compared to that of its counterpart, the bare ZnFe2O4 particle materials. The outstanding electrochemical performance was because of the buffering and protective effects of the PDA coating layer, which could be a general protection strategy for electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Nature creates beautiful structural colors, and some of these colors are produced by nanostructural arrays of melanin. Polydopamine (PDA), an artificial black polymer produced by self-oxidative polymerization of dopamine, has attracted extensive attention because of its unique properties. PDA is a melanin-like material, and recent studies have reported that photonic materials based on PDA particles showed structural colors by enhancing color saturation through the absorption of scattered light. Herein, we describe the preparation of three-dimensional (3D) colloidal photonic materials, such as structural color balls and fibers, from biomimetic core-shell particles with melanin-like PDA shell layers. Structural color balls were prepared through the combined use of membrane emulsion and heating. We also demonstrated the use of microfluidic emulsification and solvent diffusion for the fabrication of structural color fibers. The obtained 3D colloidal materials, i.e., balls and fibers, exhibited angle-independent structural colors due to the amorphous assembly of PDA-containing particles. These findings provide new insight for the development of dye-free technology for the coloration of various 3D colloidal architectures.

Abstract
A significant effort is currently being invested to improve the electrochemical performance of classical lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) or to accelerate the advent of new chemistry-based post-LIBs. Regardless of the governing chemistry associated with charge storage, stable electrode-electrolyte interface and wet-adhesion among the electrode particles are universally desired for rechargeable batteries adopting liquid electrolytes. In this regard, recent studies have witnessed the usefulness of mussel-inspired polydopamine or catechol functional group in modifying the key battery components, such as active material, separator, and binder. In particular, the uniform conformal coating capability of polydopamine protects active materials from unwanted side reactions with electrolytes and increases the wettability of separators with electrolytes, both of which significantly contribute to the improvement of key battery properties. The wet-adhesion originating from catechol functional groups also largely increases the cycle lives of emerging high-capacity electrodes accompanied by huge volume expansion. This review summarizes the representative examples of mussel-inspired approaches in rechargeable batteries and offers central design principles of relevant coating and adhesion processes.

Abstract
The layer-structured LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 (L523) with high specific capacity and the spinel LiMn2O4 (LMO) with excellent thermostability complement each other in a blended cathode for better heat stability and electrochemical performance. The delithiated LMO starts to react with electrolyte at 160-200 °C to cause structural instability, and the delithiated L523 generates massive heat when its temperature is raised above 275 °C with the electrolyte present, but we found that the blended cathode shows a remarkable improvement in thermal stability since the reaction at 160-200 °C between LMO and the electrolyte disappears, and the total heat generated from the reaction between L523 and the electrolyte is drastically reduced. The reaction between LMO and the electrolyte at 160-200 °C causes structural instability of LMO as a self-accelerating attack from HF. With L523 present, this reaction is eliminated because the H(+) from HF and Li(+) in L523 undergo exchange reaction to prevent further generation of HF. The presence of LMO, however, reduces the total heat generated by L523 reacting with the electrolyte at high temperature. This thermal synergy between LMO and L523 not only improves the thermal safety of the blended cathode but also preserves their structures for better electrochemical performance.
