Mechanically Tunable Hydrogels with Self-Healing and Shape Memory Capabilities from Thermo-Responsive Amino Acid-Derived Vinyl Polymers

In this study, we report the fabrication and characterization of self-healing and shape-memorable hydrogels, the mechanical properties of which can be tuned via post-polymerization crosslinking. These hydrogels were constructed from a thermo-responsive poly(<i>N-</i>acryloyl glycinamide)...
