One strategy that has gained much attention in the last decades is the understanding and
further mimicking of structures and behaviours found in nature, as inspiration to develop …

Here, a spotlight is shown on aqueous microgel particles which exhibit a great potential for
various biomedical applications such as drug delivery, cell imaging, and tissue engineering …

In this paper, recent developments in the chemical design of functional microgels are
summarized. A wide range of available synthetic methods allows the incorporation of …

Novel water-soluble core–shell hyperbranched polymers (HBPAMs), consisting of nano-
SiO2 as the core, hyperbranched polyamidoamide (PAMAM) as the subshell, and linear …

In this work, we report redox sensitive, 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DH) functionalized
chitosan/stearic acid microgels (DH-ChSt MGs) for controlled delivery of insecticide and …

A newly developed N-vinylcaprolactam/acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate/acrylic acid based
microgel displays in situ reductive reactivity towards HAuCl4, forming hybrid polymer–gold …

In recent years, the interest in responsive materials to design membranes with tunable
properties increased in order to customize membranes for adaptable process requirements …

In the present work, we demonstrate that polymer based functional microgels can be used
as autocatalytic template for the bioinspired deposition of silica nanoparticles inside the …

Abstract Poly (Nvinylcaprolactam)based biodegradable microgels are prepared for drug
delivery application via precipitation polymerization using diacetone acrylamide (DAAM) …

In this manuscript, we report for the first time a new generation microgel synthesis without
using any divinyl functionalized cross-linker. A new generation less crosslinked microgel …
