Dynamic covalent polymer hydrogels and organogels crosslinked through acylhydrazone bonds: synthesis, characterization and applications
Apostolides, Demetris E.; Patrickios, Costas S. (2018)We review recent literature on the rapidly expanding field of dynamic covalent polymer networks (DCPNs) crosslinked with acylhydrazone bonds, classified according to their structural perfection: randomly crosslinked and ...

Dynamic Covalent Star Poly(ethylene glycol) Model Hydrogels: A New Platform for Mechanically Robust, Multifunctional Materials
Apostolides, Demetris E.; Sakai, T.; Patrickios, Costas S. (2017)We develop a new platform of dynamic covalent model polymer networks comprising two types of four-armed star poly(ethylene glycol)s (tetraPEG), one end-functionalized with benzaldehyde groups and the other with ...

Enamine-Based Hydrophilic Dynamic Covalent Polymer Networks: Effects of pH, and Copolymer Composition and Concentration on the Aqueous Swelling Degrees and the Gel Formation Times
Apostolides, Demetris E.; Hadjicosta, A.; Patrickios, Costas S. (2015)In this work, we explore the formation in water of dynamic covalent polymer networks cross-linked via enamine groups. The polymer networks resulted from the combination of pairs of chemically complementary hydrophilic ...

Synthesis and characterization of reversible and self-healable networks based on acylhydrazone groups
Apostolides, Demetris E.; Patrickios, Costas S.; Leontidis, Epameinondas; Kushnir, M.; Wesdemiotis, Chrystostomos (2014)A series of seven dynamic covalent networks based on pentaerythritol tetra(benzohydrazide) and 1,10-decanediol dibenzaldehyde were prepared in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The equilibrium degree of swelling in DMF and the ...
