Advances in Polymer Chemistry: Designing Materials for Biomedical Applications

Abstract

Recent developments in polymer chemistry have resulted in the creation of novel materials that are specifically designed for use in biomedical applications. These materials have opened up new opportunities in the fields of drug delivery, tissue engineering, and medical device manufacturing. the most recent developments in polymer design, with a particular emphasis on biocompatibility, biodegradability, and functionalization features. Synthesis of smart polymers, hydrogels, and biodegradable scaffolds, which are able to respond to physiological circumstances and allow regulated drug release or tissue regeneration, is the primary focus of this research. In addition, the combination of nanotechnology and polymers has made it possible to develop targeted medicines and biomaterials that are responsive to their environment. Important problems, such as immunological reactions, scalability, and regulatory issues, are also addressed in this article. polymer chemistry's potential future directions in terms of enhancing personalized medicine and improving patient outcomes through new biomedical solutions are discussed here.
