Engineering mechanical dissipation in solid poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels with bio-inspired metal-coordinate crosslinks
… we synthesized polyethylene glycol (PEG) hydrogels with two crosslinked networks; a primary permanent network composed of covalently crosslinked 4-arm PEG and a secondary network composed of 4-arm PEG functionalized with histidine on each arm. The histidine decorated PEG forms a mechanically …

3D printing of hyaluronic acid scaffolds for tissue engineering applications
… repair applications. ASCs within the 2% HAGM bulk gels proliferate, transport, and undergo chondrogenic differentiation. Finally, HAGM scaffolds are implanted in porcine mandibular bone to confirm their biocompatibility and potential to support tissue growth in in vivo models.

Screening guidelines and data analysis for the application of in-situ polymer gels for injection well conformance improvement
… economic and environmental impacts. Polymer gels have been effectively applied to mitigate water production and extend the productive lives of mature oilfields. However, selecting a proper gel technology for a given reservoir is a challenging task for reservoir engineers because of the …

Synthesis and study of crystalline hydrogels, guided by a phase diagram.
… have several advantages over the conventional bulk gels for controlling the release of biomolecules with large molecular weights. Monodispersed nanoparticles of poly-N-isopropylacrylamide-co-allylamine (PNIPAM-co-allylamine) can self-assemble into crystals with a lattice spacing on the order of …

Polypyrrole-containing Composite Particles: Preparation, Characterization and Application
… template, water-soluble polymers, polymeric microgels, latex particles or bulk gels can be used. The morphology and properties of the composite particles can be controlled effectively by the proper use of the template. By choosing the dopant anion or oxidation agent it is possible to vary the …

Physikalische Hydrogele auf Polyurethan-Basis
Physical hydrogels have gained recent attention as cell substrates, since viscoelasticity or stress relaxation is a powerful parameter in mechanotransduction, which has long been neglected. We designed multi-functional polyurethanes to form physical hydrogels via a unique tunable gelation …
