We review recent works on the synthesis and application of poly (ionic liquid) s (PILs). Novel
chemical structures, different synthetic strategies and controllable morphologies are …

Aliphatic polycarbonates have gained increased attention as biomaterials largely owing to
their biocompatibility and tunable degradation. Moreover, the ability to introduce functional …

Synthetic macromolecular antimicrobials have shown efficacy in the treatment of multidrug
resistant (MDR) pathogens. These synthetic macromolecules, inspired by Nature's …

Nowadays, considerable effort is made to overcome bacterial diseases and combat bacterial
resistance. In this context, development of safe and efficient antimicrobial wound dressings …

In the last few years, efforts to broaden PILs properties, structures, functionalities, and
applications have grown rapidly. One of their interesting potential uses is as antimicrobial …

Utilizing CO2 as one of the monomer resources, poly (vinylcyclohexene
carbonates)(PVCHCs) are used as the precursor for preparing cationic PVCHCs …

Imidazolium-type metal-containing ionic liquid (IL) monomers and their corresponding poly
(ionic liquid)(PIL) membranes coordinated with CuCl2 (PILM-Cu), FeCl3 (PILM-Fe), or ZnCl2 …

Amphiphilic polymers can form nanostructures via self-assembly and thus have attracted
significant attention from scientists in the development of synthetic methodology and …

Self-immolative polymers (SIMPs) are macromolecules that spontaneously undergo
depolymerization into small molecules when triggered by specific external stimuli. We report …

Accessing cyclic carbonate monomers on a large scale is critical for the development of any
new carbonate-based materials platform. The synthesis of carbonate monomers can be a …
