Inspired by shape‐morphing organisms in nature, researchers have developed various
hydrogels with stimuli‐responsive swelling, shrinking, bending, folding, origami, rolling …

Antibacterial materials are recognized as important biomaterials due to their effective
inhibition of bacterial infections. Hydrogels are 3D polymer networks crosslinked by either …

The rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic microbes is becoming an
imminent global public health problem. Local application of antibiotics might be a solution. In …

Natural polymers, like chitosan and alginate have potential of appearance, as well as the
changes and handling necessary to make it acceptable vehicle for the controlled release of …

A continuously growing area of controlled and tunable transport and separation of

The deposition of surface coatings using a step‐by‐step approach from mutually interacting
species allows the fabrication of so called “multilayered films”. These coatings are very …

Novel multi‐stimuli‐responsive microcapsules with adjustable controlled‐release
characteristics are prepared by a microfluidic technique. The proposed microcapsules are …

This review highlights recent developments in the field of stimuli‐responsive hydrogels,
focusing primarily on thin films, with a thickness range between 100 nm to 10 μm. The theory …
