Smart thermosensitive poly (N-vinylcaprolactam) based hydrogels for biomedical applications.
(AENSI, 2014-12-31)
Photopolymerisation is an attractive technique used in biomedical applications as it can
provide rapid reaction rates with excellent temporal and spatial control features and
unique tuneable properties. This fabrication ...
Composite cryogels for dual drug delivery and enhanced mechanical properties.
(Wiley, 2018-04)
In this study, we present a simple and effective process that integrates hydrogels with drugs + ceramics via physical crosslinks resulting in improved mechanical properties. These cryogels have the potential for controlled ...
Effect of thermal annealing on a bilayer polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid electrospun hydrogel nanofibres loaded with doxorubicin and clarithromycin for a synergism effect against osteosarcoma cells
(Elsevier, 2021-08-02)
Polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid (PVA/PAA) bilayer hydrogel nanofibres were successfully fabricated by
electrospinning and physically crosslinked via heat treatment. The effects of the thermal annealing
process on the ...
Structure response for cellulose-based hydrogels via characterization techniques.
(Springer, 2019)
Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked polymeric networks capable of imbibing substantial amounts of water or biological fluids and are widely used in biomedical applications, especially in pharmaceutical industry as ...
A novel pH‐sensitive ceramic‐hydrogel for biomedical applications.
(Wiley, 2015-12)
Innovations on the field of smart hydrogels are now being held with loads of advantages. With recent progress, smart polymers can now be used on the market for specific target/objectives desired on medicine. However, the ...
Preparation and characterization of novel poly(vinyl) (alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogels for sensitive hydrogels.
(Sciforum, 2014-05)
Stimuli Sensitive hydrogels have enormous potential in various applications. Various
environmental variables are found in the body, such as low pH and elevated temperatures. For this
reason, either pH-sensitive and/or ...
Self-photopolymerizable hydrogel-ceramic composites with scavenger properties
(MDPI, 2022-03-21)
The photocatalytic behaviours of semiconductive ceramic nanoparticles such as TiO2, ZnO, Fe2O3, and Fe3O4, have been extensively studied in photocatalysis and photopolymerization, due to their ability to produce radical ...
Investigation of the effects of orientation on freeze/thawed Polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel properties.
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
Although hydrogels produced via freeze-thawing (F/T) technique have been thoroughly studied in literature, stretching hydrogels in between freeze-thawing cycles could change its properties and might be modulated for drug ...
