Description

Ionic Self-Healing Hydrogel (Calcium-Alginate System) utilizes reversible ionic interactions between alginate chains and divalent calcium ions. These ionic crosslinks can dissociate under stress and reform spontaneously, allowing the hydrogel to recover its structure after damage.

This system enables fast healing and excellent injectability while maintaining biocompatibility. The material is particularly useful in applications where rapid recovery and mild conditions are required.
