Effect of Post‐Curing and Solvent Type on Swelling and Residual Dipolar Couplings in Star‐Based Model Homo‐ and Conetworks

open access: yesMacromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 227, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
Post‐crosslinking upon drying of solution‐synthesized gels is a rarely studied phenomenon, relevant for applications of (possibly amphiphilic) gels involving solvent variation. Using end‐linked star‐PEG as model system, low‐resolution NMR and swelling experiments are used to probe structural variations in various solvents, highlighting significant ...

Nano/Micro‐Engineered Hydrogel Carriers for Sustainable Agriculture: Bridging Structural Form to Field Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are 3D polymeric networks that can absorb and retain significant amounts of water and exhibit physical properties such as swelling and contraction in response to changes in the external environment. Owing to these unique physicochemical properties, hydrogels have attracted interest as effective solutions to key challenges in modern ...
