Alginate–calcium carbonate porous microparticle hybrid hydrogels with versatile drug loading capabilities and variable mechanical strengths

TL;DR: Novel alginate/porous CaCO 3 microparticle hybrid hydrogels are facilely fabricated by in-situ release of Ca 2+ from CaCO3 microparticles induced by hydrolysis of d -glucono-δ-lactone to reduce pH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly Tough, Stretchable, Self-Healing, and Recyclable Hydrogels Reinforced by in Situ-Formed Polyelectrolyte Complex Nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this article, a simple approach to fabricate polymeric materials with simultaneously enhanced tensile strength, stretchability, and toughness is presented, which can be used for medical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organo-Cobalt Mediated Living Radical Polymerization of Vinyl Acetate

TL;DR: In this paper, a degenerative transfer mechanism that utilizes organo-cobalt complexes as the transfer agent is used to control the radical polymerization of vinyl acetate and methyl acrylate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Printable hybrid hydrogel by dual enzymatic polymerization with superactivity.

TL;DR: Hybrid hydrogels were fabricated via a new approach employing a dual enzyme-mediated redox initiation reaction and their applications for 3D printing and biocatalysis.
