  Biopolymer-Based 3D Composite Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering: Photothermal-Responsive Systems with Controlled Pt (IV) Prodrug Release

  By Pasunuti Durga, C. Hazarathaiah Yadav, Darwin R S, Mahesh Kumar Thota

  Abstract: Biopolymer-based composite scaffolds have attracted significant attention as multifunctional platforms at the intersection of polymer science, regenerative medicine, and cancer nanotherapy. In this study, a dual-functional scaffold was developed for simultaneous osteosarcoma treatment and bone regeneration using poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) reinforced with bioactive glass (BG) and integrated with a glutathione-responsive platinum (IV) prodrug system (PDA@Pt). To improve interfacial adhesion, photothermal conversion efficiency, and tumor-specific activation, the Pt (IV) prodrug …

  Neuromorphic Self-Learning Polymer–MXene Photovoltaic Composites with Embedded Memristive Energy Routing for Adaptive Solar Energy Harvesting

  By Ajoy Kumar Nandy, Rajkumar Jhapte, Vishal Moyal, V. Vinodhini, Mahendra Kumar R, D. Suresh, Yogesh Diliprao Sonawane

  Abstract: This dynamic and fast-growing intelligent renewable energy system requires photovoltaic materials that can autonomously adapt to fast-changing environmental conditions. In this study, a novel system is proposed for adaptive harvesting of solar energy based on Neuromorphic Self-Learning Polymer–MXene Photovoltaic Composites (NSPMPCs) with embedded memristive energy routing networks. To boost the charge generation and charge transport in the polymer–MXene heterostructure, the flexibility and processability of conductive polymers are integrated with the …
