Herein, poly (N-(4-aminophenyl) methacrylamide))-carbon nano-onions (PAPMA-CNOs = f-CNOs) and anilinated-poly (ether ether ketone) (AN-PEEK) have synthesized, and AN-PEEK/f-CNOs composite thin films were primed via layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly for stimuli-responsive drug release. The obtained thin films exhibited pH-responsive drug release in a controlled manner; pH 4.5 = 99.2% and pH 6.5 = 59.3% of doxorubicin (DOX) release was observed over 15 days. Supramolecular π-π stacking interactions between f-CNOs and DOX played a critical role in controlling drug release from thin films. Cell viability was studied with human osteoblast cells and augmented viability was perceived. Moreover, the thin films presented 891.4 ± 8.2 MPa of the tensile strength (σult), 43.2 ± 1.1 GPa of Young’s modulus (E), and 164.5 ± 1.7 Jg−1 of toughness (K). Quantitative scrutiny revealed that the well-ordered aligned nanofibers provide critical interphase, and this could be responsible for augmented tensile properties. Nonetheless, a pH-responsive and mechanically robust biocompatible thin-film system may show potential applications in the biomedical field.

The preparation and properties of tert-dodecanethiol protected gold nanoparticles amenable to very rapid surface functionalization by associative mechanism is described. The new material can be easily prepared by controlling the reaction time, because only a limited but enough number of tert-dodecanethiol to stabilize the gold clusters is bond to the surface until about an hour. Accordingly, it can be isolated as a solid and handled much like the highly stabilized Brust-Schiffrin analogues, but reacted very rapidly with any molecular species containing one or multiple functional groups such as thiol, disulfide, pyridine, etc., These characteristics are ideal for the preparation of a variety of new organic–inorganic hybrid nanomaterials by coordinative self-assembly. This possibility was illustrated using meso-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrin, which promptly bonded to the reactive protected gold nanoparticles generating a solid that can be grown as thin films with layer-by-layer control on a suitably modified surface.
