Abstract: Abstract Two distinct synthetic methodologies to furnish polynorbornene bearing thiol-maleimide adduct side groups, namely direct ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of prefunctionalized monomers and postpolymerization modification, were investigated and compared in this study. ROMP of thiol-maleimide… read more here.

Abstract: Fast-forming yet easily dissolvable hydrogels (HGs) have potential applications in wound healing, burn incidences, and delivery of therapeutic agents. Herein, a combination of a thiol–maleimide conjugation and thiol–disulfide exchange reaction is employed to fabricate fast-forming… read more here.
