4D printed hydrogel scaffold with swelling-stiffening properties and programmable deformation for minimally invasive implantation

Abstract The power of three-dimensional printing in designing personalized scaffolds with precise dimensions and properties is well-known. However, minimally invasive implantation of complex scaffolds is still challenging. Here, we develop amphiphilic dynamic thermoset polyurethanes catering for mul...
