Polysaccharide-based self-assembling nanohydrogels: An overview on 25-years research on pullulan [PDF]
The aim of this overview is to review the evolution of the studies carried out, during more than 25 years, on nanohydrogels obtained by self-assembling of pullulan (PUL) using several hydrophobization strategies.

Microgel-based surface modifying system for stimuli-responsive functional finishing of cotton [PDF]
An innovative strategy for functional finishing of textile materials is based on the incorporation of a thin layer of surface modifying systems (SMS) in the form of stimuli-sensitive microgels or hydrogels.

Stimuli-responsive behavior of PNiPAm microgels under interfacial confinement [PDF]
The volume phase transition of microgels is one of the most paradigmatic examples of stimuli-responsiveness, enabling a collapse from a highly swollen microgel state into a densely coiled state by an external stimulus. Although well characterized in bulk,

Green–Light–Driven Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-acrylamide)/Fe3O4 Nanocomposite Hydrogel Actuators
Light-responsive hydrogel actuators show attractive biomedical applications for in vivo drug delivery tool, surgical tissue repair operation, and vascular cleaning due to its non-contact, rapid, precise, and remote spatial control of light.

Multifunctional Microstructured Surfaces by Microcontact Printing of Reactive Microgels
Reactive poly(N‐vinylcaprolactam‐co‐glycidyl methacrylate) microgels are used as functional inks to create surface‐grafted arrays on glass via microcontact printing. The patterns (10–50 µm widths and spacings) enable stable binding and post‐functionalization with dyes and peptides.
