Over the past two decades the Layer-by-Layer (LbL) assembly of multilayer thin films has witnessed an explosive growth. However, this has so far not been translated into numerous industrial applications mainly owing to the time-consuming multistep assembly procedure which was originally based on dipping of a substrate into a solution. More recently the use of spray-based approaches, both for planar films as well as for the construction of polymeric particles, has emerged. Here we highlight these recent advances that have the potential to move the LbL field forward.
在过去的二十年中，层层（LbL）组装多层薄膜见证了爆炸式的增长。然而，这迄今为止尚未转化为众多工业应用，主要是由于最初基于将基底浸入溶液中的耗时多步组装过程。最近，喷涂方法的使用，无论是用于平面薄膜还是用于聚合颗粒的构建，都已经出现。在这里，我们强调这些有潜力推动 LbL 领域前进的最新进展。
