Role of Hydrophobic Associations in Self-Healing Hydrogels Based on Amphiphilic Polysaccharides
Self-healing hydrogels have the ability to recover their original properties after the action of an external stress, due to presence in their structure of reversible chemical or physical cross-links. The physical cross-links lead to supramolecular hydrogels stabilized by hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic...
