Опубликована: Янв. 23, 2025

There is ongoing research for biomedical applications of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based hydrogels; however, the execution this has not yet been achieved at an appropriate level commercialization. Advanced perception necessary design and synthesis suitable materials, such as PVA-based hydrogel applications. Among polymers, drawn great interest in owing to their attractive potential with characteristics good biocompatibility, mechanical strength, apposite water content. By designing approach investigating structure, hydrogels can attain superb cytocompatibility, flexibility, antimicrobial activities, signifying that it a candidate tissue engineering regenerative medicine, drug delivery, wound dressing, contact lenses, other fields. In review, we highlight current progresses on explaining diverse usage across variety areas. We explain numerous techniques related phenomena based these materials. This review may stipulate wide reference future acumens materials extensive
