A facile protocol for the self-assembly of the rGO/β-MnO2 hybrid hydrogel with ultrafine structure and precise control of mass-loading for high performance supercapacitors is reported.
From waste to wealth – a self-assembled hydrogel remediates palladium from solution down to sub-ppm levels, and the resulting gel, which has embedded Pd nanoparticles, acts as a green and efficient catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.

Recombinant hagfish slime proteins are self-assembled into coiled-coil filaments, drawn from a solution, and phase-transformed into elongated β-sheets with high stiffness.
