Near-Infrared Light Triggered the Shape Memory Behavior of Polydopamine-Nanoparticle-Filled Epoxy Acrylate.

ABSTRACT: Through the effective combination of photothermal conversion agent polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles and epoxy acrylate polymer (EA), a new kind of near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered shape memory polymer (PDA/EA) is developed. Due to the outstanding photothermal effect of PDA, even with a very low concentration of PDA (0.1 wt.%), when exposed to an 808 nm NIR light with a power of 1 W/cm², the temporary shapes can be fully light-responsive, recovered in 60 s. Based on dynamic thermomechanical analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis, it can be seen that the introduction of PDA is beneficial for improving dynamic mechanical properties and thermal resistance compared to EA. As an environmentally friendly and highly efficient photoactive SMP, PDA/EA has a great application prospect.

Polydopamine coated shape memory polymer: enabling light triggered shape recovery, light controlled shape reprogramming and surface functionalization.

Project description:Photo-active shape memory polymers (SMPs) are considered as a promising candidate for converting light into mechanical energy. However, most known SMPs are only thermo-responsive. To achieve photo-activity, photo-responsive choromophores or fillers usually have to be incorporated from the very beginning of the material synthesis. Here, we introduce a novel post-synthesis approach to endow normal SMPs with photo-active properties using mussel-inspired surface chemistry. Without changing the original properties, the resultant polydopamine (PDA) coated SMPs show an efficient photo-active performance. The coating can be easily patterned and erased, which allows flexible light-triggered 3-D shape deformation of a planar SMP sheet. Moreover, owing to the high chemical activity, the PDA coating also provides a platform to optimize the surface properties of the photo-responsive SMPs through secondary surface modification.

Rapid and Local Self-Healing Ability of Polyurethane Nanocomposites Using Photothermal Polydopamine-Coated Graphene Oxide Triggered by Near-Infrared Laser.

Project description:In this study, we report the self-healing ability of polyurethane (PU) nanocomposites based on the photothermal effect of polydopamine-coated graphene oxide (PDA-rGO). Polydopamine (PDA) was coated on the graphene oxide (GO) surface, while simultaneously reducing GO by the oxidation of dopamine hydrochloride in an alkaline aqueous solution. The PDA-rGO was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. PDA-rGO/PU nanocomposites with nanofiller contents of 0.1, 0.5 and 1 wt% were prepared by ex situ mixing method. The photothermal effect of the PDA-rGO in the PU matrix was investigated at 0.1 W/cm2 using an 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser. The photothermal properties of the PDA-rGO/PU nanocomposites were superior to those of the GO/PU nanocomposites, owing to an increase in the local surface plasmon resonance effect by coating with PDA. Subsequently, the self-healing efficiency was confirmed by recovering the tensile stress of the damaged nanocomposites using the thermal energy generated by the NIR laser.

Near-Infrared Triggered Degradation for Transient Electronics.

Project description:Electronics that disintegrate after stable operation present exciting opportunities for niche medical implant and consumer electronics applications. The disintegration of these devices can be initiated due to their medium conditions or triggered by external stimuli, which enables on-demand transition. An external stimulation method that can penetrate deep inside the body could revolutionize the use of transient electronics as implantable medical devices (IMDs), eliminating the need for secondary surgery to remove the IMDs. We report near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered transition of metastable cyclic poly(phthalaldehyde) (cPPA) polymers. The transition of the encapsulation layer is achieved through the conversion of NIR light to heat, facilitated by bioresorbable metals, such as molybdenum (Mo). We reported a rapid degradation of cPPA encapsulation layer about 1 min, and the rate of degradation can be controlled by laser power and exposure time. This study offers a new approach for light triggerable transient electronics for IMDs due to the deep penetration depth of NIR light through to organs and tissues.

Thermally and Photothermally Triggered Cytocompatible Triple-Shape-Memory Polymer Based on a Graphene Oxide-Containing Poly(ε-caprolactone) and Acrylate Composite.

Project description:Triple-shape-memory polymers (triple-SMPs) are a class of polymers capable of fixing two temporary shapes and recovering sequentially from the first temporary shape to the second temporary shape and, last, to the permanent shape. To accomplish a sequential shape change, a triple-SMP must have two separate shape-fixing mechanisms triggerable by distinct stimuli. Despite the biomedical potential of triple-SMPs, a triple-SMP that with cells present can undergo two different shape changes via two distinct cytocompatible triggers has not previously been demonstrated. Here, we report the design and characterization of a cytocompatible triple-SMP material that responds separately to thermal and light triggers to undergo two distinct shape changes under cytocompatible conditions. Tandem triggering was achieved via a photothermally triggered component, comprising poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) fibers with graphene oxide (GO) particles physically attached, embedded in a thermally triggered component, comprising a tert-butyl acrylate-butyl acrylate (tBA-BA) matrix. The material was characterized in terms of thermal properties, surface morphology, shape-memory performance, and cytocompatibility during shape change. Collectively, the results demonstrate cytocompatible triple-shape behavior with a relatively larger thermal shape change (an average of 20.4 ± 4.2% strain recovered for all PCL-containing groups) followed by a smaller photothermal shape change (an average of 3.5 ± 0.8% strain recovered for all PCL-GO-containing groups; samples without GO showed no recovery) with greater than 95% cell viability on the triple-SMP materials, establishing the feasibility of triple-shape memory to be incorporated into biomedical devices and strategies.

New Approach to Shape Memory Polymer Composite Production Using Alkaline Lignin-Reinforced Epoxy-Based Shape Memory Polymers.

Project description:In the past few decades, there has been continued interest in shape memory polymers (SMPs), and tremendous efforts have been made to develop multifunctional composites of these SMPs to enhance the existing properties of SMPs. Although fossil-based sources are widely used in the production of shape memory polymer composites (SMPCs), the depletion of fossil-based resources and associated environmental problems increase interest toward renewable biobased products synthesized from natural resources. This study aims to produce alkaline lignin-reinforced SMPCs by using alkaline lignin in the SMP matrix. Thermo-mechanical, morphological, and shape memory tests are performed in order to reveal the effect of alkaline lignin usage in the SMP matrix on SMPC production. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis results show that adding alkaline lignin into the SMP matrix with 1 and 3% ratios led to an increase in T g values, while raising the alkaline lignin ratio to 5% decreased the T g value. According to the DMA results, increasing the alkaline lignin ratios caused an increase in the storage modulus of SMPCs, and the best storage modulus value was obtained at the 5% alkaline lignin ratio. The results of the three-point bending test also confirmed the results obtained from the DMA analysis, showing that an increasing alkaline lignin ratio caused an increase in the bending modulus. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed a rough structure in 1 and 3% alkaline lignin supplementation, while a smoother structure was observed in 5% alkaline lignin supplementation. The smoother structure of the sample containing 5% alkaline lignin indicates that alkaline lignin supplementation exhibits a smoother surface by showing a plasticizing effect. As a result, it was observed that increasing the lignin ratio increased the polymer/alkaline lignin interaction, resulting in a harder structure and an increase in the flexural modulus value.

Near Infrared Light Triggered Photo/Immuno-Therapy Toward Cancers.

Project description:Nanomaterials-based phototherapies, mainly including photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photoimmunotherapy (PIT), present high efficacy, minimal invasion and negligible adverse effects in cancer treatment. The integrated phototherapeutic modalities can enhance the efficiency of cancer immunotherapy for clinical application transformation. The near-infrared (NIR) light source enables phototherapies with the high penetration depth in the biological tissues, less toxic to normal cells and tissues and a low dose of light irradiation. Mediated via the novel NIR-responsive nanomaterials, PTT and PDT are able to provoke cancer cells apoptosis from the generated heat and reactive oxygen species, respectively. The released cancer-specific antigens and membrane damage danger signals from the damaged cancer cells trigger immune responses, which would enhance the antitumor efficacy via a variety of immunotherapy. This review summarized the recent advances in NIR-triggered photo-/immune-therapeutic modalities and their synergistic mechanisms and applications toward cancers. Furthermore, the challenges, potential solutions and future directions of NIR-triggered photo-/immunotherapy were briefly discussed.

Shape memory polymers with visible and near-infrared imaging modalities: Synthesis, characterization and <i>in vitro</i> analysis.

Project description:Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are promising for non-invasive medical devices and tissue scaffolds, but are limited by a lack of visibility under clinical imaging. Fluorescent dyes are an alternative to radiocontrast agents in medical applications, they can be utilized in chemical sensors and monitors and may be anti-microbial agents. Thus, a fluorescent SMP could be a highly valuable biomaterial system. Here, we show that four fluorescent dyes (phloxine B (PhB), eosin Y (Eos), indocyanine green(IcG), and calcein (Cal)) can be crosslinked into the polymer backbone to enhance material optical properties without alteration of shape memory and thermomechanical properties. Examinations of the emission wavelengths of the materials compared with the dye solutions showed a slight red shift in the peak emissions, indicative of crosslinking of the material. Quantitative analysis revealed that PhB enabled visibility through 1 cm of blood and through soft tissue. We also demonstrate the utility of these methods in combination with radio-opaque microparticle additives and the use of laser-induced shape recovery to allow for rapid shape recovery below the glass transition temperature. The crosslinking of fluorescent dyes into the SMP enables tuning of physical properties and shape memory and independently of the fluorescence functionality. This fluorescent SMP biomaterial system allows for use of multiple imaging modalities with potential application in minimally invasive medical devices.

Near-infrared remotely triggered drug-release strategies for cancer treatment.

Project description:Remotely controlled, localized drug delivery is highly desirable for potentially minimizing the systemic toxicity induced by the administration of typically hydrophobic chemotherapy drugs by conventional means. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems provide a highly promising approach for localized drug delivery, and are an emerging field of interest in cancer treatment. Here, we demonstrate near-IR light-triggered release of two drug molecules from both DNA-based and protein-based hosts that have been conjugated to near-infrared-absorbing Au nanoshells (SiO2 core, Au shell), each forming a light-responsive drug delivery complex. We show that, depending upon the drug molecule, the type of host molecule, and the laser illumination method (continuous wave or pulsed laser), in vitro light-triggered release can be achieved with both types of nanoparticle-based complexes. Two breast cancer drugs, docetaxel and HER2-targeted lapatinib, were delivered to MDA-MB-231 and SKBR3 (overexpressing HER2) breast cancer cells and compared with release in noncancerous RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Continuous wave laser-induced release of docetaxel from a nanoshell-based DNA host complex showed increased cell death, which also coincided with nonspecific cell death from photothermal heating. Using a femtosecond pulsed laser, lapatinib release from a nanoshell-based human serum albumin protein host complex resulted in increased cancerous cell death while noncancerous control cells were unaffected. Both methods provide spatially and temporally localized drug-release strategies that can facilitate high local concentrations of chemotherapy drugs deliverable at a specific treatment site over a specific time window, with the potential for greatly minimized side effects.

3D Printing of Thermally Responsive Shape Memory Liquid Crystalline Epoxy Networks.

Project description:A two-component liquid crystalline epoxy network (LCEN) with shape memory behavior was developed and evaluated as a candidate material for 3D printing. The cure kinetics of the uncured material and the shape memory properties of the cured LCEN were investigated by using parallel plate rheology and dynamic mechanical analysis, respectively. A commercially available fumed silica additive was introduced to the neat, uncured material to improve the rheological properties for 3D printing. The addition of fumed silica was found to increase the yield stress, shear-thinning behavior, and toughness of the uncured epoxy ink. Polarized light microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and wide-angle X-ray scattering measurements between the neat and additive-modified LCEN suggested a reduction in liquid crystalline alignment in the modified LCEN, owing to interactions between crystalline domains and fumed silica, which in turn influenced the mechanical behavior. Overall, the additive was found to be successful in preserving the shape memory properties of LCEN while improving its printability.

Acid-Triggered Switchable Near-Infrared/Shortwave Infrared Absorption and Emission of Indolizine-BODIPY Dyes.

Project description:Fluorescent organic dyes that absorb and emit in the near-infrared (NIR, 700-1000 nm) and shortwave infrared (SWIR, 1000-1700 nm) regions have the potential to produce noninvasive high-contrast biological images and videos. BODIPY dyes are well known for their high quantum yields in the visible energy region. To tune these chromophores to the NIR region, fused nitrogen-based heterocyclic indolizine donors were added to a BODIPY scaffold. The indolizine BODIPY dyes were synthesized via microwave-assisted Knoevenagel condensation with indolizine aldehydes. The non-protonated dyes showed NIR absorption and emission at longer wavelengths than an aniline benchmark. Protonation of the dyes produced a dramatic 0.35 eV bathochromic shift (230 nm shift from 797 nm to 1027 nm) to give a SWIR absorption and emission (λmaxemis = 1061 nm). Deprotonation demonstrates that material emission is reversibly switchable between the NIR and SWIR.
