Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is a non-toxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable polymer that gained
lots of interest in recent years. PAA nano-derivatives can be obtained by chemical …

Given their durability and long‐term stability, self‐healable hydrogels have, in the past few
years, emerged as promising replacements for the many brittle hydrogels currently being …

In this review, we focus on the very recent developments on the use of the stimuli responsive
properties of polymer hydrogels for targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, and …

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

Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) play important roles in our daily life, as they are applied in
