This study presents a comprehensive survey of microgel‐coated materials and their
functional behavior, describing the complex interplay between the physicochemical and …

Starch is a natural copolymer with unique physicochemical characteristics. Historically, it has
been physically, chemically, or enzymatically modified to obtain ad-hoc functional properties …

The capacity to control the dispersed or aggregated state of colloidal particles is particularly
attractive for facilitating a diverse range of smart applications. For this reason, stimuli …

We report the synthesis of core–shell nanogels by sequential addition of thermoresponsive
monomers; N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and N-isopropylmethacrylamide (NIPMAM). The …

This contribution presents in-line monitoring of microgel synthesis by precipitation
polymerization based on Raman spectroscopy. The spectra are evaluated via multivariate …

HIV is a global public health threat and requires life-long, daily oral dosing to effectively
treat. This pill burden often results in poor adherence to the medications. An injectable in situ …

Smart polymer microgels have been attracting a lot of attention due to their quick response
to variation in environmental stimuli like temperature, pH, ionic strength, and presence of …

Conventional eyedrops commonly used to deliver ophthalmologic treatments do not provide
a sustained delivery of the drug, since a large portion of the intended dose is lost through …

An in situ forming implant (ISFI) for drug delivery combines the potential to improve
therapeutic adherence for patients with simple administration by injection. Herein, we …

This work represents a detailed investigation into the phase and morphological behavior of
synergistic dual-stimuli-responsive poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) nanogels, a material that is …
