Abstract

In article 1701949, Jianxun Ding, Yu Shrike Zhang, Zhongming Li, and co-workers develop stimuli-responsive self-healing porous electrospun fibers, where the pores on the electrospun fibers show efficient self-sealing functionality to trap biomacromolecules, by taking advantage of the photothermal conversion ability of the surface-entangled carbon nanotubes upon light irradiation. The fibers also afford a sustained release of the entrapped biomolecules through reversible reopening of the pores upon gradual degradation.
