Functional Stimuli-Responsive Gels: Hydrogels and Microgels [PDF]
Gels, 2018 One strategy that has gained much attention in the last decades is the understanding and further mimicking of structures and behaviours found in nature, as inspiration to develop materials with additional functionalities. This review presents recent advances in stimuli-responsive gels with emphasis on functional hydrogels and microgels.

Amoeba-like self-oscillating polymeric fluids with autonomous sol-gel transition
Nature Communications, 2017 Most polymeric materials that show sol-gel transitions are unidirectional and stimuli-responsive systems. Here the authors show a block copolymer solution that undergoes autonomous and periodic sol-gel transitions under constant conditions.
