"Smart" polymers, which reversibly change their physical properties in response to small and controllable stimuli (e.g., changes in pH, termpature, and light), reversibly cycle between an extended and hydrophilic random…
Introduction: Hydrogels have been used extensively in the development of smart drug delivery systems. A hydrogel is a network of hydrophilic polymers that can swell in water and hold a…
