Preparation of honeycomb scaffold with hierarchical porous structures by core-crosslinked core–corona nanoparticles

Breath Figure: A Nature-Inspired Preparation Method for Ordered Porous Films

“…In another recent work, Yao et al prepared BFA films using CCS nanogels with the middle block P(St-alt-MAn) as the core and two side block PS polymers as the corona. 334 Poly et al also obtained well- Chem. Rev.…”

Bioinspired engineering of honeycomb structure – Using nature to inspire human innovation

“…Mesoscopically honeycomb-patterned porous 2D substrates (e.g., honeycomb films), with submicron to micron pore sizes, are of particular interest for biomedical application as biointerface [349], cell culture substrates [350][351][352][353], separation membranes for blood cells [354], immobilization of biomolecules [355], dialyzer [356,357] and oxygenator membranes [349]. To design honeycomb substrates for biomedical applications, great efforts have been devoted to developing grafting and cross-linking honeycomb films [351].…”

New directions in nanofibrous scaffolds for soft tissue engineering and regeneration

“…In tissue engineering, nanoparticles have been used for scaffold synthesis [34], scaffold reinforcement [35], cell patterning [36–38], in vivo imaging [39–41], and enhancing scaffold biocompatibility [42]. The most common application of nanoparticles in tissue engineering, however, is for drug [43–46], gene [47,48], and other bioactive factor delivery [49].…”
