Mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) coatings have gained significant attention in various fields, including biomedicine, energy, detection, and UV protection, owing to their versatile promising properties. Among these properties, shielding stands out as a key feature of PDA coatings. Nevertheless, the current methods for tuning UV-shielding properties are quite limited, only rely on thickness adjustment, which might involve additional issues like color visible light transmittance coating layer. In this study, we propose facile modular approach enhance absorption by incorporating thiol-heterocycle (TH) derivatives. Both pre- post-modification strategies can effectively impede formation conjugated structures within PDA, leading enhanced layers. More importantly, improve while reducing absorption. Furthermore, method enabled efficient regulation altering ring type (benzene or pyridine ring) substituent (methoxyl group hydrogen atom). These with demonstrate great promise applications antibacterial activity, wound healing dye degradation.

Synthetic melanin is a mimic of natural analogue with intriguing properties such as metal–ion chelation, redox activity, adhesion, and broadband absorption. Melanin-inspired composite materials are formulated by assembly other types inorganic organic components to target, combine, build up the functionality, far beyond their capabilities. Developing efficient universal methodologies prepare melanin-based unique functionality vital for further applications. In this review, we summarize three synthetic approaches, predoping, surface engineering, physical blending, access various melanin-inspired distinctive structure properties. The applications in free radical scavenging, bioimaging, antifouling, catalytic also reviewed. This review concludes current challenges that must be addressed research opportunities future studies.
