Tunable Microgel‐Templated Porogel (MTP) Bioink for 3D Bioprinting Applications
Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2022 Micropores are essential for tissue engineering to ensure adequate mass transportation for embedded cells. Despite the considerable progress made by advanced 3D bioprinting technologies, it remains challenging to engineer micropores of 100 µm or smaller ...

Does the Size of Microgels Influence the Toughness of Microgel‐Reinforced Hydrogels?
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2022 AbstractRapid advances in the biomedical field increasingly often demand soft materials that can be processed into complex 3D shapes while being able to reliably bear significant loads. Granular hydrogels have the potential to serve as artificial tissues because they can be 3D printed into complex shapes and their composition can be tuned over short ...

Thermodynamics of ionic microgels [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2002 We present a theory of dilute aqueous suspensions of microgel particles. It is found that as the number of charged monomers in the polymer network composing mesoscopic gel increases, the particles undergo a swelling transition. Depending on the hydrophobicity of the polymer, this transition can be either continuous or discontinuous.
