Functional Self-healing Hydrogels Based on Dynamic Molecular Interactions for Biomedical Applications
DownloadFall 2021
Self-healing hydrogels can autonomously heal from damage to preserve their integrity and functionalities which hold great promises in a wide range of applications. Different types of dynamic molecular interactions have been explored to develop self-healing hydrogels. Nevertheless, it remains...

Human Plasma Adsorption to Biomaterials: Fundamental Level Chemical Modifications and Their Effects on Biocompatibility
DownloadFall 2017
The non-specific adsorption of proteins to biomaterials is a process that begins instantly upon implantation and results in the formation of a protein-rich layer coating the biomaterial surface. The consequences of this complex phenomenon are far-reaching and may affect both the biomaterial...

Tough Polyampholyte Hydrogels: Effect of Dialysis and Their Applications in Stretchable Electronic Skins
DownloadFall 2018
Tough hydrogels are an emerging class of advanced materials that have resolved the long-standing problem of brittleness and fragility in conventional hydrogels. Their superior mechanical performances enable several unprecedented applications in bio-integrated electronics, surgical glues, and soft...
