In Situ Stimuli Transfer in Multi‐Environment Shape‐Morphing Hydrogels Based on the Copolymer Between Spiropyran and Acrylic Acid

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Poly (acrylic acid‐co‐spiropyran)‐based hydrogel is designed as a photo‐stimuli shape‐morphing material. This hydrogel exhibits rapid and reversible photo‐morphing behavior in various environments, including water, oil, and open air. This behavior is attributed to the light‐triggered protonation of spiropyran, which allows for the in situ transfer of ...

Manipulation of Oxygen Tension in Damaged Regions via Hypoxia‐Induced IPN Hydrogel Microspheres for Intervertebral Disc Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel interpenetrating network hydrogel microsphere (NSC‐Exos@HIMS) is developed to manipulate oxygen tension in damaged regions and recruit endogenous stem cells. In vitro and in vivo results show that NSC‐Exos@HIMS maintains the hypoxia microenvironment for up to 5 days, which triggers nucleus pulposus cell‐like differentiation and enhanced ECM ...

A Bio‐Adaptive Janus‐Adhesive Dressing with Dynamic Lubrication Overlayer for Prevention of Postoperative Infection and Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Slippery‐adhesive Janus gel dressing exhibits both stable tissue adhesive and outstanding efficiency in repelling physiological fluids. As a physical barrier, a liquid‐infused surface with a dynamic lubrication overlayer possesses excellent antibiofouling properties, making it highly effective in preventing bacterial infections and postoperative tissue

Phase separations in a copolymer–copolymer mixture

Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2005
We propose a three-order-parameter model to study the phase separations in a diblock copolymer–diblock copolymer mixture. The cell dynamical simulations provide rich information about the phase evolution and structural formation, especially the appearance of onion-rings. The parametric dependence and physical reason for the domain growth of onion-rings

Synthesis of copolymers. II. Copolymers of butadiene and of isoprene [PDF]

open access: possibleDie Makromolekulare Chemie, 1972
AbstractThe compositions of copolymers formed by reacting butadiene or isoprene (M) with lithium in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of varying amounts of alkyl dihalides have been studied. When butadiene was reacted with dibromo‐p‐xylene, it was found that the dihalide predominantly dimerised by a WURTZ condensation mechanism before reacting with ...

Thermoresponsive copolymer microgels

Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 2013
Colloidal aqueous microgels have attracted notable attention due to their possible applications in both polymer chemistry and the (bio)material sector. Due to their soft internal network structure and their response to different external stimuli, they are suitable as carrier systems for different kinds of molecules (e.g.
