Hydrogels with tailor-made swelling-shrinkable properties have aroused considerable interest in numerous biomedical domains. For example, as swelling is a key issue for blood and wound extrudates absorption, the transference of nutrients metabolites, well drug diffusion release, hydrogels high capacity been widely applicated full-thickness skin healing tissue regeneration, delivery. Nevertheless, fields adhesives internal soft-tissue healing, bioelectronics, non-swelling play very important functions owing to their stable macroscopic dimension physical performance physiological environment. Moreover, negative behavior (i.e., shrinkage) can be exploited drive noninvasive closure, achieve resolution enhancement hydrogel scaffolds. In addition, it help push out entrapped drugs, thus promote release. However, there still has not general review constructions applications from viewpoint properties. Therefore, this summarizes tactics employed so far tailoring applications. And relatively comprehensive understanding current progress future challenge different features provided potential clinical translations.

As personal portable devices, wearable sensors supply a leading-edge pathway to diagnose various diseases through actuating biological, physical, and chemical sensing capabilities. This could be commonly carried out via recording continuous real-time of the patient's physiological statuses, as well pathophysiological information. Although sensor technology is in infancy stage, tremendous attempts have been devoted approaching flexible polymeric sensors. Among polymer candidates applicable for synthesizing sensors, bio-based ones piqued more interest due their biocompatibility, biodegradability, eco-friendly features, cost-effectiveness. Additionally, several fabrication techniques professed architect efficient frameworks, such films, hydrogels, aerogels, ferrogels, 3D layers, electrospun mats, textiles. In this review, different mechanisms declared engineer are overviewed. Then, regarding advantages observed polymers, focused studies on natural-based described. Notably, cellulose, chitosan, silk, gelatin, alginate's role functionality highlighted. Accordingly, review has opened new window ahead opportunities based natural polymers. It hoped that generation will launched by combining emerging achievements obtained from employing sustainable green elements miniaturized structures.

Abstract Conductive gels are perfect for various sensor applications due to their inherent stretchability, flexibility, and electrical conductivity. However, poor environmental adaptability low fracture toughness restrict potential applications. In this study, resorcinol‐formaldehyde resin (RF) is used the first time as a rigid network compounded with flexible polyacrylic acid (PAA) successfully prepare double (DN) deep eutectic solvent gel (RF/PAA DN gel). The has high stress strength (1.04 MPa), compressive (10.63 (1.07 MJ m −3 ). addition of RF significantly improves mechanical properties gives RF/PAA certain photothermal effects, swelling resistance, flame retardancy, broadening scope use application gel. Importantly, multifunctional sensor, it can combine deformation sensing, temperature optical humidity underwater sensing into one, wide range stimuli responses excellent properties. Excellent suitability also allows its in temperatures (−20−90 °C), (55%−90% RH), underwater, fire conditions. work provides new ideas choosing networks novel strategy developing sensors performance complex environments.
