The book defines the differences between synthetic and natural
superabsorbent polymers. It describes polymerization techniques,
processing strategies and the use and importance of smart SAPs. It
also includes SAP design to aid in selection of the best SAP for a
specific application. The book is an indispensible resource for any
academics and industrials interested in SAPs.
This book offers a complete overview of photonic-enhanced materials
from material development to a final photonic biomedical
application. It includes fundamental, applied, and industrial
photonics. The authors cover synthesis, the modification and the
processing of a variety of (bio)polymers including thermoplasts
(e.g. polyesters) and hydrogels (e.g. proteins and polysaccharides)
for a plethora of applications in the field of optics and
regenerative medicine.

Hydrogels represent one of the cornerstones in tissue engineering
and regenerative medicine, due to their biocompatibility and
physiologically relevant properties. These inherent characteristics
mean that they can be widely exploited as bioinks in 3D bioprinting
for tissue engineering applications as well as injectable gels for
cell therapy and drug delivery purposes. The research in these
fields is booming and this book provides the reader with a terrific
introduction to the burgeoning field of injectable hydrogel design,
bioprinting and tissue engineering. Edited by three leaders in the
field, users of this book will learn about different classes of
hydrogels, properties and synthesis strategies to produce bioinks.
A section devoted to the key processing and design challenges at
the hydrogel/3D bioprinting/tissue interface is also covered. The
final section of the book closes with pertinent clinical
applications. Tightly edited, the reader will find this book to be
a coherent resource to learn from. It will appeal to those working
across biomaterials science, chemical and biomedical engineering,
tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
