A thermo-sensitive and conductive hydrogel with a VPTT value of 38 °C is developed. The gel stretchable, self-adhesive, self-healable, puncture-resistant can respond to multimodal stimuli including tensile strain, compressive stress temperature high sensitivity.
Abstract Fabrication strategies for programmed hydrogels that provide precise spatial control with predetermined responses to external stimuli are highly desirable. In this study, a partially reversible light‐driven assembly (PRLDA) method is introduced construct multiresponsive utilizing microgel (MG) particle building blocks (swollen diameter of 107 nm). No other material required prepare the gels beyond MGs themselves. Facile preparation reversibly responsive light, pH, and temperature...
Gel-based wearable bioelectronic devices have garnered increasing attention due to their unique properties. However, developing multiple environmentally tolerant (resistant freezing, drying, and various solvents) conductive gels presents a formidable challenge. Herein, we designed developed smart organogel exhibiting high stretchability (up 550% strain 19.3 kPa modulus), adhesion (24.8 on pigskin), resistance solvents. This achievement is attributed the synergistic effects arising from...
The mesoporous (meso)-TiO2 layer is a key component of high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, pore size controllable meso-TiO2 layers are prepared using spin coating commercial TiO2 nanoparticle (NP) paste with added soft polymer templates (SPT) followed by removal the SPT at 500 °C. SPTs consist swollen crosslinked colloids (microgels, MGs) or linear (denoted as LIN). MGs and LIN were comprised same polymer, which was poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm). Large (L-MG) small...
In this study a new pH-responsive nanogel probe containing complementary nonradiative resonance energy transfer (NRET) fluorophore pair is investigated and its ability to act as versatile of network-related changes in three hydrogels demonstrated. Fluorescent sensing using NRET powerful method for studying relationships between Angstrom length-scale structure macroscopic properties soft matter. Unfortunately, inclusion fluorophores into such materials requires material-specific chemistry....
Using two different wavelengths of UV light enables remarkably strong photo-switchable swelling pH- and temperature-responsive microgels photo-release doxorubicin.
Colloidosomes are micrometer-sized hollow particles that have shells consisting of coagulated or fused colloid particles. While many large colloidosomes with sizes well above 1.0 μm been prepared, there fewer examples submicrometer colloidosomes. Here, we establish a simple emulsion templating-based method for the preparation robust pH-responsive microgel The constructed from based on ethyl acrylate and methacrylic acid peripheral vinyl groups. microgels acted as both Pickering stabilizer...
Red fluorescent protein (RFP) variants are highly sought after for in vivo imaging since longer wavelengths improve depth and contrast fluorescence imaging. However, the lower energy emission wavelength usually correlates with a quantum yield compared to their green emitting counterparts. To guide rational design of bright variants, we have theoretically assessed two (mScarlet mRouge) which reported very different brightness. Using an α-CASSCF QM/MM framework (chromophore all residues within...
Abstract Fluorescent hydrogels have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for developing biomimetic materials and artificial intelligence owing to their unique fluorescence responsive properties. However, it is still challenging fabricate hydrogel that exhibits synergistic changes in color shape response multistimulus via a simple method. Herein, blue‐ orange‐emitting fluorescent microgels (MGs) both are designed synthesized with pH‐, thermal‐, cationic‐sensitivity one‐step...
Elastic physical gels are highly desirable because they can be conveniently prepared and readily shaped. Unfortunately, many elastic in water require situ free-radical polymerization during the gel formation stage. In contrast, complex coacervate that by simply mixing two pre-formed oppositely-charged polyelectrolytes. However, as far we aware, have not yet been reported. Herein, combine polyanionic microgel particles with a well-known commercially-available cationic polyelectrolyte to...

Effects functional monomers (R f ) on surface morphology, water...
Using low-cost sub-micrometer microgel particles in perovskite solar cells reduces expensive conjugated polymer use, increases stability and provides good efficiencies.
Microgels (MGs) are swellable crosslinked polymer colloids. They can also be used as the only building block to construct nanostructured hydrogels which denoted doubly microgels (DX MGs). Here, new triply responsive DX MGs comprised of interlinked oligo(ethylene glycol)methacrylate (OEGMA), 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate (MEO2MA), methacrylic acid (MAA) and a o-nitrobenzyl-based UV photocleavable crosslinker investigated. The swelled or collapsed in response temperature pH changes....
