Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Temperature-responsive hydrogels, otherwise known as thermogels, are promising biomaterials which undergo phase change from liquid to a solid-like gel state when warmed. Although poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) is employed extensively as the hydrophilic segment in thermogelling polymer design, recent years has witnessed development of new families of PEG-free thermogelling copolymers which offer new opportunities in expanding material property profiles for new biomedical applications. Herein, we study the supramolecular self-assembly process of PEG-free amphiphilic branched graft copolymer containing polyethylenimine (PEI) and poly (propylene glycol) (PPG), which shows both thermogelling ability and pH-responsive gelation behaviour. Additionally, we demonstrate the ease of post-synthetic modulation of thermogel properties by amine functionalisation on the PEI copolymer segments through convenient nucleophilic substitution and amide formation reactions. The synthetic platform offered by PEI-PPG thermogels allow facile customisation of these versatile materials for targeted biomedical applications.
