Polysulfamides are a new class of polymers that exhibit favorable chemical and physical properties, making them a sustainable alternative to commodity polymers like polyurea. To advance the fundamental understanding of this new class of polymers, Wu et al. [Z. Wu, J. W. Wu, Q. Michaudel and A. Jayaraman, Macromolecules, 2023, 56, 5033-5049]conducted experiments and coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to connect the polysulfamide backbone design to the assembled structure of polysulfamides due to hydrogen bonding between sulfamides. Their CG MD simulations qualitatively reproduced experimentally observed trends in crystallinity for analogous variations in polysulfamide backbone designs. To bring chemical specificity to this generic CG model of Wu et al. and to facilitate quantitative agreement with experiments in the future, in this work, we modify this older CG model of Wu et al. using structural information from atomistic simulations. Atomistic angle and dihedral distributions involving the sulfamide functional groups are used to modify the donor and acceptor bead positions in the new CG model. Using MD simulations with this new atomistically informed CG model, we confirm that we obtained the structural trends with varying polysulfamide backbone length, bulkiness, and non-uniformity of the segments in repeat units as seen in the previous work by Wu et al. These key structural trends are as follows: (a) shorter contour lengths of segments between sulfamide groups enhance H-bonding between sulfamides, (b) increased bulkiness in the segment hinders sulfamide-sulfamide H-bonding and reduces orientational order among chains in the assembled structure, and (c) non-uniformity in the segments along the backbone does not affect orientational order in the assembled structure. While the trends qualitatively matched between the two models, we observe quantitatively higher positional order and lower orientational order among the assembled chains in the new C

Thermal comfort is essential for maintaining physiological well-being, with textile materials traditionally serving as the primary medium for regulating heat exchange between the body and its environment. However, conventional textiles often fall short of maintaining optimal thermal balance. So, there is an increasing demand for advanced thermoregulation systems that can effectively reduce heat loss and enhance warmth, ensuring consistent comfort. Recent research has highlighted the promise of advanced functional materials, especially graphene and its composites, for modifying textiles to improve thermal properties. This article comprehensively reviews recent advancements in graphene-functionalized textile composites, focusing on their applications in wearable Joule heaters designed for personalized thermal comfort or thermal therapy. Various graphene-functionalized textile composites are reviewed from the perspectives of material properties, processing strategies and device fabrication methods. Key challenges and future opportunities are summarized for graphene-functionalized textile-based Joule heaters as innovative solutions in wearable thermal regulation.

Polymer-networked nanoparticles are the basis for advanced materials useful for wearable electronics, drug delivery, autonomous computing, and other applications. To characterize and predict the physics and underlying mechanisms of the network connections in two-and three-dimensional engineered nanoparticle arrays, we developed an analogous Potts model of three-state sites. Together with dissipative particle dynamics simulations, we found that the network structures in polymer-linked nanoparticle assemblies are generally dominated by the number of nearest neighbors and not the topology of the lattice. When the E field regulates the network connections, the links along the E-field direction always dominate the overall network structure.
