Conversion of Lignocellulosic Bagasse Biomass into Hydrogel [PDF]
In recent years, the main objective of developing new hydrogel systems has been to convert biomass into environmentally-friendly hydrogels. Hybrid hydrogels are usually prepared by graft copolymerization of acrylic monomers onto natural polymers or ...

Highly Stretchable, Adhesive, Biocompatible, and Antibacterial Hydrogel Dressings for Wound Healing
Treatment of wounds in special areas is challenging due to inevitable movements and difficult fixation. Common cotton gauze suffers from incomplete joint surface coverage, confinement of joint movement, lack of antibacterial function, and frequent ...

Cross-linking of Poly(sodium acrylate)-Based Hydrogels by a Non-vinyl Cross-linker [PDF]
Polyvinyl-based cross-linkers are most frequently used for internal cross-linking of hydrogels, while non-vinyl cross-linkers are used for surface cross-linking of hydrogels by reactions between the pendant groups of hydrogel and functional groups of ...

The impact of nasal adhesions on airflow and mucosal cooling -- a computational fluid dynamics analysis [PDF]
Nasal adhesions are a known postoperative complication following surgical procedures for nasal airway obstruction (NAO); and are a common cause of surgical failure, with patients often reporting significant NAO, despite relatively minor adhesion size.

Octopus-inspired adhesive skins for intelligent and rapidly switchable underwater adhesion
The octopus couples controllable adhesives with intricately embedded sensing, processing, and control to manipulate underwater objects. Current synthetic adhesive–based manipulators are typically manually operated without sensing or control and can be ...

Development of a bio-based adhesive from Protium heptaphyllum resin
In this work, a bio-based adhesive is prepared from Protium heptaphyllum resin. The resin is first characterized by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and the bioadhesive is then prepared using a simple mixture of the resin with linseed ...
