Recently, with the development of supramolecular science, nanotechnology and precisely synthetic chemistry, various novel hydrogels have been designed and fabricated, which show emerging applications in tissue engineering, drug delivery, anti-fouling coatings, flexible electronics and soft robotics. Through tailoring their two-dimensional surface structures and three- dimensional networks, unique properties such as ultra-high mechanical strength, responsiveness to various kinds of stimuli, biocompatibility, special wettability and adhesion can be achieved.展开更多
文摘Hydrogels are classical soft and wet materials that have been extensively studied over the past several decades. Recently, with the development of supramolecular science, nanotechnology and precisely synthetic chemistry, various novel hydrogels have been designed and fabricated, which show emerging applications in tissue engineering, drug delivery, anti-fouling coatings, flexible electronics and soft robotics. Through tailoring their two-dimensional surface structures and three- dimensional networks, unique properties such as ultra-high mechanical strength, responsiveness to various kinds of stimuli, biocompatibility, special wettability and adhesion can be achieved.
