“…Similar to FDM printing, DIW technology dispenses polymeric materials onto the substrate which solidified after deposition. [ 95 ] This approach employs high resolution during printing; however, this technique is not widely applied compared to other extrusion techniques due to the curing of each printed layer. [ 96 ] Moreover, this technology develops precise and intricate multimaterial printing shapes by using SMPs, SMHs, and SMPCs.…”

Shape-memory materials (SMMs) combined with 3D printing to develop dynamic and adaptive products which are responsive to physical, chemical, or biological stimuli. These structures are categorized into 4D-printed (4DPed) products which change their shape and properties over time dimension. 4D printing, a novel, multidisciplinary, and futuristic technology is expanding its utilization in different applications including healthcare, space, textile, soft robotics, defence, sports, aerospace, and automotive sectors. This review article focuses on the recent and insightful developments in the 4DP technology of SMMs especially shape-memory polymers. This review also integrates printing technologies, the programming of materials for specific actuating mechanisms, and the most recent applications of 4DPed structures/products. Future perspectives and countless opportunities of this 4DP technology are outlined to address the current challenges which will help evolve and promote this novel technology as the mainstream manufacturing approach for developing real-world products in a myriad of engineering sectors. 4DP technology progresses beyond imagination, since its inception and will promote technological and manufacturing renaissance in the material science field. This technology will profoundly impact manufacturing and daily human life in the future.

“…Among the numerous women working on this topic, Kristiina Oksman (Luleå University of Technology, Sweden), Aji Mathew (Stockholm University, Sweden), and Arantxa Eceiza (University of Basque Country, Spain) have achieved significant progresses on nanocellulose. These include: (i) the isolation of nanocellulose (nanofibers, nanocrystals, or whiskers) from different origins and sources such as microcrystalline cellulose from Norway spruce, kenaf fibers, beech pulp, and unbleached rice straw among others by using different isolation approaches, namely, chemical hydrolysis or physical or mechanical isolation methods such as refining, high-pressure homogenization and ultrafine grinder and their characterization [ 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 ]; (ii) the processing of functional materials such as nanocomposites with interesting mechanical properties [ 92 , 93 , 94 ], hydrogels, aerogels [ 95 ], and membranes for several applications [ 96 , 97 ]; and (iii) the cellulose-based material development for biomedical applications; for example, as scaffolds [ 83 , 98 , 99 ].…”

Nowadays, biopolymers are playing a fundamental role in our society because of the environmental issues and concerns associated with synthetic polymers. The aim of this Special Issue entitled ‘Women in Polymer Science and Technology: Biopolymers’ is highlighting the work designed and developed by women on biopolymer science and technology. In this context, this short review aims to provide an introduction to this Special Issue by highlighting some recent contributions of women around the world on the particular topic of biopolymer science and technology during the last 20 years. In the first place, it highlights a selection of important works performed on a number of well-studied natural polymers, namely, agar, chitin, chitosan, cellulose, and collagen. Secondly, it gives an insight into the discovery of new polysaccharides and enzymes that have a role in their synthesis and in their degradation. These contributions will be paving the way for the next generation of female and male scientists on this topic.
