Imprinting the location of an in-built RAFT agent and selective grafting of polymer chains inside or outside the pores of mesoporous silica nanoparticles

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles can be used as an adhesive for hydrogels due to their physical adsorption to polymer chains, in which adhesion energy can be affected by the ratio of mesh size and pore diameter.

Recent Advances

Hybrid materials based on Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles (MSN) have attracted plentiful attention due to the versatility of their chemistry, and the field of Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) is not an exception. MSN present desirable biocompatibility, high surface area values, and a well-studied surface reactivity for tailoring a vast diversity of chemical moieties. Particularly important for DDS applications is the use of external stimuli for drug release. In this context, light is an exceptional alternative due to its high degree of spatiotemporal precision and non-invasive character, and a large number of promising DDS based on photoswitchable properties of azobenzenes have been recently reported. This review covers the recent advances in design of DDS using light as an external stimulus mostly based on literature published within last years with an emphasis on usually overlooked underlying chemistry, photophysical properties, and supramolecular complexation of azobenzenes.
