Many people use hydrogels without knowing it. As superabsorbents in nappies, for example, hydrogels absorb a lot of liquid. In the process, the initially dry material becomes jelly-like, but it does ...

Over 8 billion tons of plastic have been produced to date, and a 100% reclamation recycling strategy is not foreseeable. This review summarizes how the mechanochemistry of polymers may contribute to a ...

Cell-based polymerization is a promising approach to bridging the gap between synthetic chemistry and biological systems, offering a gateway to building functional materials and devices directly ...
