These materials are of particular interest due to their abilities to respond to internal and\/or external chemo-physical stimuli. Aside from the scientific challenges of designing stimuli-responsive polymer gels, the main technological interests concern numerous applications, ranging from catalysis in microsystem technology and chemo-mechanical actuators to sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Special Issue includes seventeen papers covering a wide range of subjects including thermo- and pH-responsive hydrogels, functionalized materials, supramolecular stimuli-responsive structures, composite hydrogels, sensors, and biomedical applications. Together, these contributions not only provide an excellent overview of the current state-of-the-art in the field but also point out exciting challenges and opportunities for future work. In a number of reviews the most recent findings on \"Stimuli-Responsive Gels\" are compiled in this book supplemented by original contributions\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mdpi AG","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45414633177239,"sku":"9783038972105","price":5417.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783038972105.webp?v=1767106821","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/stimuli-responsive-gels-9783038972105","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
