Hydrogels, which are soft materials made of water-filled, crosslinked polymer networks, have a wide range of uses, from wound ...

However, the rapid release of CO₂ after gelation limits calcium ion availability, resulting in reduced crosslinking of the alginate chains.

Hydrogels created using carbon dioxide (CO₂) offer a safer alternative to those formed with acidic agents. While most research has focused on pre-gelation conditions affecting hydrogel properties, ...

We demonstrate that progressive gelation initiates along an annular front, isolating a central pool that briefly remains open to particulate advection before gelation completes across the droplet ...

However, the sequence features and mechanisms underlying gel formation and the necessity of gelation for protection have not been demonstrated. Here, we report a mechanism of fibrillization and ...
