This project aims to explore natural polyphenols to functionalise liquid metal (such as gallium and its alloys) nanoparticles via a coordination-driven self-assembly process. This will advance our current understanding of the interfacial chemistry involved in liquid metal processing toward the synthesis of diverse functional systems. It is expected that such a unique combination will result in hybrid nanostructures possessing synergistic properties with potential applications in conductive surface patterning, toxic metal detection and solar steam generation. The developed strategies to manipulate liquid metal interfaces with ubiquitous natural compounds will lay the foundation for future investigations across diverse scientific disciplines.

该项目旨在探索天然多酚，通过配位驱动的自组装过程使液态金属(如镓及其合金)纳米颗粒功能化。这将推动我们目前对液态金属加工中所涉及的界面化学的理解，走向各种功能系统的合成。这种独特的组合有望产生具有协同特性的杂化纳米结构，在导电表面图案化、有毒金属检测和太阳能蒸汽产生方面具有潜在的应用前景。所开发的操纵液态金属与普遍存在的天然化合物的界面的策略将为未来跨不同科学学科的研究奠定基础。
