Rapid Self-Healing Gel; Used in Drug Delivery, Wound Healing, and Tissue Engineering

 

Rapid Self-healing Gel

Self-healing materials, such as rapid self-healing gel, have an inherent ability to heal damage automatically without any external intervention. Rapid self-healing gels have extremely high hydrating ability due to which they exhibit sensitivity, elasticity, and permeability. Moreover, they can maintain their three-dimensional structure despite any environmental changes such as physical and mechanical damage. This in turn allows self-healing gel to mimic skin/flesh, and thus, provides opportunities for researchers to use these gels in cosmetology, drug delivery, wound healing, tissue engineering, and more.

Rapid self-healing gels are widely used for wound healing applications due to their unique properties, such as high sensitivity, hydrophobic nature, and easy application. Wound healing is a process that involves the restoration of damaged tissues to their original state or to a more acceptable state following injury or surgery. Some self-healing gels help soothe the pain of minor wounds and minor burns to support the skin's healing process. Recent advancements and developments in this technology have led to better results at less cost.

Moreover, with the increasing incidence of chronic wounds and rising cases of trauma around the world, the demand for rapid self-healing gel is also increasing. For example, according to the American College of Surgeons, chronic wounds affect approximately 6.5 million people in the United States. Moreover, the incidence of chronic wounds is expected to increase with the increase in aging population. Thus, there is an increasing demand for self-healing materials in the U.S. Ointments help speed up the natural healing of minor wounds, scratches, and burns.

Furthermore, it has recently been discovered that the healing properties of these polymers can be improved by some methods of treatment and that it might be possible to manufacture self-healing gels. Rapid self-healing gels have the potential to be very useful in many medical and dental situations. Some scientists have speculated that the properties of these polymers could be used to replace collagen in cases where patients have lost most, if not all, of their body tissue due to disease or an accident. The aforementioned factors are expected to increase the demand for rapid self-healing gels across the globe.
