This review addresses recent progress in cellulose-based hydrogels design and fabrication.
Firstly, hydrogels fabricated directly from native cellulose (including bacterial cellulose) via …

Polymeric cryogels, the gels formed in moderately frozen gelling systems, have been
empirically known for many decades, but systematic scientific research on various cryogels …

To sustain the further world population, more fertilizers are required, which may become an
environmental hazard, unless adequate technical and socioeconomic impacts are …

Polymeric cryogels are the gel systems formed in moderately frozen solutions or colloidal
dispersions of precursors potentially capable of gelling. Polymeric cryogels are of growing …

Cryogels are macroporous polymeric structures formed from the cryogelation of
monomers/polymers in a solvent below freezing temperature. Due to their inherent …

A copolymer hydrogel consisting of Polyacrylic Acid (PAAc) combined with an irradiated
solution of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC, 1 wt%) was prepared. The focus was on …

While there is significant literature available as research publications, limited reviews, and
book chapters, this is the first dedicated book on biomedical and biotechnological …

Abstract Hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC)/acrylic acid (AAc) copolymer gels with
superabsorbent properties were synthesized from aqueous solutions by radiation-initiated …

A hydrogel normally consists of a natural polymer and forms a three-dimensional network of
hydrophilic polymeric chains. Hydrogels swell by absorption of a large amount of water …

The objective of this study is to examine the feasibility of using visible light to form gels from
polysaccharide precursors. Hydrogel formation by visible light irradiation would be very …
