Abstract 3D printing alias additive manufacturing can transform 3D virtual models created by
computer-aided design (CAD) into physical 3D objects in a layer-by-layer manner …

In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Conductive hydrogels are a class of stretchable conductive materials that are important for
various applications. However, water‐based conductive hydrogels inevitably lose elasticity …

Skeletal muscles possess the combinational properties of high fatigue resistance (1,000
J/m2), high strength (1 MPa), low Young's modulus (100 kPa), and high water content (70 to …

Hydrogels are a series of soft and wet materials with three dimensions of crosslinked
networks. Hydrogels have attracted great attention due to their diverse functional properties …

Hydrogels are physically or chemically cross-linked polymer networks that are able to
absorb large amounts of water. They can be classified into different categories depending …

The structure of physical poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) hydrogels prepared by subjecting a
PVA/D2O solution (11% w/w PVA) to freeze (− 22° C)/thaw (+ 25° C) cycles has been …

This review deals with cryotropic gelation in polymeric systems, which takes place on
moderate freezing, storing in a frozen state and subsequent thawing of solutions or colloidal …

Hydrogel is being broadly studied due to their tremendous properties, such as swelling
behavior and biocompatibility. Numerous review articles have discussed hydrogel polymer …

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/cellulose nanowhisker (CNW) nanocomposite hydrogels to be used
for wound dressing were obtained by freezing–thawing technique and characterized by …
