Using Graphene-Based Materials for Stiff and Strong Poly(ethylene glycol) Hydrogels
Blood-contacting devices are increasingly important for the management of cardiovascular diseases. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels represent one of the most explored hydrogels to date. However, they are mechanically weak, which prevents their use in load-bearing biomedical applications (e.g.,...
