TL;DR: In this paper, the use of a commercial ionic liquid as a convenient solvent medium for graphite exfoliation in mild and easy conditions without any chemical modification is presented, and it is noteworthy that, by gravimetric analysis, a graphene concentration as high as 5.33 mg ml−1 was determined.

TL;DR: In this paper, a dispersion of graphite in N-methylpyrrolidone was used to synthesize poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) nanocomposite hydrogels containing graphene.

TL;DR: PLGA-PCL copolymer may be considered as an attractive and promising polymeric material for the formulation of Dtx NPs as delivery system for prostate cancer treatment, and can also be pursued as a validated system in a more large context.

TL;DR: By comparison with analogous samples prepared by the classical polymerization technique, it was found that the two methods give rise to hydrogels characterized by very diverse swelling capability; furthermore, swelling reversibility was found to be different when temperature is allowed to cyclically vary between values that are below and above the lower critical solution temperature.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the properties of poly(N, N -dimethylacrylamide) hydrogels obtained in bulk, water, or DMSO, and compared the obtained materials in terms of their yield, swelling behavior, thermal properties, and morphology.
