Composite Gels and Methods of their Use in Tissue Repair, Drug Delivery, and as Implants

Abstract: Gel materials, particularly hydrogels, typically lose their mechanical strength and stiffness as they swell. This property limits their use in both biological (e.g., cartilage and ECM repair) and non-biological (e.g., sealant) applications. Innovative materials in both medical and non-medical application areas are sorely needed. Recent innovations...
