Abstract
This paper presents the measurement and evaluation of the surfaces of molds produced using additive technologies. This is an emerging trend in mold production. The surfaces of such molds must be treated, usually using laser-based alternative machining methods. Regular evaluation is necessary because of the gradually deteriorating quality of the mold surface. However, owing to the difficulty in scanning the original surface of the injection mold, it is necessary to perform surface replication. Therefore, this study aims to describe the production of surface replicas for in-house developed polymer molds together with the determination of suitable descriptive parameters, the method of comparing variances, and the mean values for the surface evaluation. Overall, this study presents a new summary of the evaluation process of replicas of the surfaces of polymer molds. The nonlinear regression methodology provides the corresponding functional dependencies between the relevant parameters. The statistical significance of a neural network with two hidden layers based on the principle of Rosenblatt's perceptron has been proposed and verified. Additionally, machine learning was utilized to better compare the original surface and its replica.

Stable superhydrophobic coating on Zr-based bulk metallic glass exhibiting excellent antibacterial property and cytocompatibility. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 225:113256.

Abstract
A central challenge in the study of clinical medicine is to reduce the infection rate of implants without affecting cell adhesion and reproduction. For the first time, we prepared a robust and stable superhydrophobic Zn/pDop/SA coating on Zr56Al16Co28 bulk metallic glass by electrodeposition that exhibits a maximum water contact angle of 158° and a sliding angle less than 1°. The growth of the coating micro-nano structure was controlled by changing the electrodeposition process parameters. The coating showed excellent antimicrobial adhesion properties in the environment to avoid bacteria adhesion and can transform from superhydrophobic to hydrophilic in body fluids to promote cell adhesion. The biodegradation of the Zn crystal structure was responsible for the hydrophobic transformation of the coating and the rough surface after biodegradation provided a point of adhesion for the cells. By designing a uniform crater structure on the substrate as an "armour" and co-depositing dopamine into the coating, the coating's wear resistance was greatly improved. The superhydrophobic coating can maintain stable superhydrophobicity in high temperature environment, air and UV irradiation. This study opens new horizons for the surface modification of bulk metallic glass and promotes its application in the medical field.

Abstract
The excellent electrical conductivity of graphene is due to its highly-conjugated structures. Manipulation of the electronic and mechanical properties of graphene can be achieved by controlling the destruction of its in-sheet conjugation system. Herein, we report the preparation of CoCeSx -SA@BPMW@RGO through π-π stacking interactions at the molecular level. In this study, sodium alginate was reacted with Co2+ and Ce3+ , and the composite was loaded onto a graphene surface. The graphene sheets were prepared using a bi-pyrene terminated molecular wire (BPMW) to avoid re-stacking of the grapheme sheets, thereby forming nanoscale spaces between sheets. The angle between the BPMW coplanar pyrene group and the phenyl group was 33.2°, and the graphene layer is supported in an oblique direction. Finally, a three-dimensional porous composite was obtained after annealing and vulcanization. The obtained CoCeSx -SA@BPMW@RGO exhibited excellent electrical conductivity and remarkable cycle stability. When the current density was 1 A g-1 , its specific capacitance was as high as 1004 F g-1 . BPMW modifies graphene through the synergistic effect of π-π stacking interaction and special structure to obtain excellent electrochemical performance. Moreover, a solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor device was fabricated based on the synthesized CoCeSx -SA@BPMW@RGO hybrid, which exhibited a power density of 979 W kg-1 at an energy density of 23.96 Wh kg-1 .
