Hierarchically Soft Porous MOF‐Polymer Monolith for Fast and Large‐Scale Moisture Buffering

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
A soft, hierarchical porous monolith that combines metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with a thermoresponsive polymer matrix enables rapid, large‐scale moisture buffering. The synergistic interface facilitates high‐capacity water capture and low‐energy release for sustainable indoor dehumidification.

Versatile DNA‐Functionalized Biohybrid Hydrogel Platforms for Electrothermally Activated On‐Demand Payload Release

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
A DNA‐functionalized biohybrid hydrogel is developed by integrating Cu‐mediated nucleic acid microflowers into a thermoresponsive matrix, enabling electrothermally triggered, on‐demand payload release. The platform offers spatiotemporally controllable therapeutic delivery with promising applications in precision oncology, neural regulation, and chronic

Unravelling the initiator‐only stage in alginate grafting: Radical‐induced depolymerization and its impact on acrylamide grafting efficiency

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 3996-4006, August 2026.
Abstract Free‐radical grafting of natural polymers often assumes that initiators only create active sites before monomer addition. We tested this by exposing sodium alginate to potassium persulphate (KPS) under typical grafting conditions without monomer (acrylamide).

Hydrogels: From Simple Covalently Cross‐Linked Systems toward Hydrophobically Associating Adaptive Semicrystalline Materials

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
The exceptional toughness of these hydrogels originates from a lamellar cluster structure in which tie molecules, formed by PDMAAm chains containing noncrystallized C18A and C12M segments, transfer stress, and dissipate energy during deformation. Fragmentation of lamellar clusters under load produces yielding, whereas hydrogels without C12M lack this ...

Multi‐Responsive PAA/PNIPAM Semi‐IPN Hydrogel Properties Controlled by PAA Topology

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Polymer topology governs hydrogel behavior in semi‐interpenetrating networks. Cyclic poly(acrylic acid) enables controlled pH‐responsive swelling, improved stability, and enhanced deformability compared to linear analogues, while linear systems show higher strength during thermal de‐swelling.

3D Liver Fibrosis Models in Lab: A Novel Modality for Drug Screening

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Liver fibrosis is the common consequence of liver injury caused by a variety of chronic liver disorders. This condition leads to the development of more severe complications, particularly cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite abundant studies, the fundamental cell and molecular mechanisms of liver fibrosis are still unknown.
