Polyelectrolyte Design Principles for Electrophoretic Drug Delivery
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Structure–property–function mapping of polyelectrolytes reveals how composition and nanoscale order control on‐demand electrophoretic drug transport. Charge density quantified under implant‐relevant conditions shows that encapsulation limits swelling, enabling high effective charge density.
