Abstract:A nanogel is a cross-linked nano-sized, a three-dimensional network of hydrophilic polymers with an ability to swell by holding large amount of water while maintaining the structure due to chemical or physical cross-linking of individual polymer chains. Nanogels can be made up of synthetic and/or natural polymers resulting in a cationic, anionic, or neutral system depending on the bound groups’ charges. Currently, these materials are receiving tremendous attention in research due to their properties. They are … Show more
