Stimuli Responsive Ionogels for Sensing Applications—An Overview
This overview aims to summarize the existing potential of "Ionogels" as a platform to develop stimuli responsive materials. Ionogels are a class of materials that contain an Ionic Liquid (IL) confined within a polymer matrix. Recently defined as "a solid interconnected network spreading throughout a liquid phase", the ionogel therefore combines the properties of both its solid and liquid compon...
متن کاملStimuli-Responsive Assemblies for Sensing Applications
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm)-based hydrogels and hydrogel particles (microgels) have been extensively studied since their discovery a number of decades ago. While their utility seems to have no limit, this feature article is focused on their development and application for sensing small molecules, macromolecules, and biomolecules. We highlight hydrogel/microgel-based photonic materials...
متن کاملSelf-recovering stimuli-responsive macrocycle-equipped supramolecular ionogels with unusual mechanical properties.
A chiral, crown-ether-functionalized bisurea gelator forms supramolecular gels in ionic liquids. The resulting ionogels show a remarkably high thermal stability with gel-sol transition temperatures (T(gs)) reaching more than 100 °C. The mechanical strength of these ionogels is surprisingly high and even comparable to that of cross-linked protein fibres. Furthermore, the ionogels exhibit rapid s...
متن کاملStimuli-responsive microgel-based etalons for optical sensing
Responsive polymer-based materials (or smart materials) have found numerous uses over the years due to their ease of synthesis and various responsivities/functionalities. Of them, stimuli-responsive hydrogel particles (microgels) have generated a lot of interest, and have been used for a number of applications, most importantly for this submission is their use as components of photonic material...
متن کاملState of the art of stimuli-responsive liposomes for cancer therapy
Specific delivery of therapeutic agents to solid tumors and their bioavailability at the target site are the most clinically important and challenging goals in cancer therapy. Liposomes are promising nanocarriers and have been well investigated for cancer therapy. In spite of preferred accumulation in tumors via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, inefficient drug release at t...
