For more than a decade, the discovery of liquid–liquid phase separation within living
organisms has prompted colloid scientists to understand the connection between …

Growing demand for highly effective, site-specific delivery of pharmaceuticals and
nutraceuticals using nano-sized carriers has prompted increased scrutiny of carrier …

The rheology of complex coacervates can be elegantly tuned via the design and control of
specific non-covalent hydrophobic interactions between the complexed polymer chains. The …

The migration of fibroblasts and endothelial cells is a critical determinant of wound-healing
outcomes for skin injuries. Here, hyaluronic acid-tyramine (HAT) and thiolated glycol …

The small amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS) rheological properties of complex coacervate
of milk proteins with high (HMC), medium (MMC), and low (LMC) molecular weight chitosan …

It is well-known that the phase behavior and physicochemical and adhesive properties of
complex coacervates are readily tuneable with the salt concentration of the medium. For …

Hypothesis Adjusting the water content and mechanical properties of polyelectrolyte
coacervates for optimal underwater adhesion requires simultaneous control of the …

Here, we explore the effect of copolymer chemistry on the phase behavior and viscoelasticity
of complex coacervates. To this end, we utilized a library of methacrylate copolymers with …

In this work, we propose the formation of stretchable hydrogels at neutral pH from the
physical crosslinking of chitosan (CS) and hyaluronic acid (HA) by polyelectrolyte …

Tissue adhesives are used for various medical applications, including wound closure,
bleeding control, and bone healing. Currently available options often show weak adhesion …
