Abstract

ABSTRACT Hydrogels have gained significant attention due to their unique properties, such as high-water absorption capacity, biocompatibility, and tunable mechanical properties. Hydrogels are versatile materials that have been extensively researched and developed for various applications in various fields. The development of hydrogels has undergone several stages, from early synthetic gels to more advanced smart gels and biomimetic hydrogels. The properties of hydrogels, such as swelling behavior, biocompatibility, and stimuli responsiveness, make them attractive materials for various applications. The review has highlighted some of the current and potential applications of hydrogels, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound healing, and agriculture. Hydrogels have shown great potential in these areas, and ongoing research is expected to lead to further innovations and advancements. The future of hydrogel research and development will likely involve exploring new materials, development of exploring new materials, developing improved synthesis techniques, and creating more complex and functional hydrogel systems. This review paper has highlighted hydrogel’s historical development, types, properties, and applications, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound healing, biosensors, and agriculture.
