Among them, microneedles fabricated from natural polysaccharides have emerged as particularly promising due to their excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, intrinsic bioactivity, and environmental sustainability. This review provides a critical overview of recent progress in polysaccharide-based microneedles, focusing on the physicochemical properties and biomedical functionalities of chitosan, hyaluronic acid, alginate, dextran, and plant-derived biopolymers. Fabrication methods, structural advantages, and multifunctional attributes, such as immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial effects, are systematically discussed. Key biomedical applications, including cancer therapy, vaccination, chronic disease management, and wound healing, are highlighted alongside recent developments in clinical trials and patents. The review further elucidates structure–property–function relationships and explores strategies to support clinical translation, with emphasis on manufacturability, scalability, and regulatory considerations. To address technical barriers, such as mechanical robustness and industrial-scale fabrication, actionable solutions including high-throughput micromolding and quality-by-design approaches are proposed. Finally, the review underscores the need for interdisciplinary collaboration across materials science, pharmaceutics, and clinical medicine to accelerate translation into practical therapies. By bridging fundamental polymer insights with translational strategies, this work aims to serve as a valuable reference for advancing next-generation microneedle systems for biomedical applications.","PeriodicalId":20326,"journal":{"name":"Polymer Reviews","volume":"149 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147743826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recycling remains challenging due to the fibers’ persistently rigid molecular chains, aromatic polyamide structures, high crystallinity, and orientation, which confer resistance to mechanical processing and common chemical agents. This review systematically summarizes recycling technologies for aramid fibers—including deprotonation, depolymerization, pyrolysis, and mechanical method while evaluating their development trajectories. Notably, depolymerization achieves >90% monomer recovery, whereas solvent-free mechanical and deprotonation routes significantly enhance recycling efficiency and reduce carbon emissions compared to pyrolysis. Critical barriers to scalable implementation are identified, such as inefficient fiber-matrix interfacial separation, chemical reagent toxicity risks, and regulatory gaps in recycled product certification. By mapping pathways toward closed-loop utilization, this work provides foundational insights for advancing circularity of aramid fibers in the polymer industry.","PeriodicalId":20326,"journal":{"name":"Polymer Reviews","volume":"94 1","pages":"1-25"},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2026-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146005617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the contrary, all-organic polymer dielectrics have been focused on in the field of energy storage because they are more suitable for large-scale production because of their low cost and excellent processability, showcasing promising prospects for development. This review introduces the theory of dielectric energy storage, such as polarization mechanism, breakdown mechanism, conduction mechanism, and energy storage parameters, in detail and depth, and emphasizes the research progress of PMMA-based and PVDF-based copolymers, and PMMA-based/PVDF-based all-organic composite materials, including molecular structure design, blend modification, and structural design.

Unlike conventional gels, which often suffer from an intrinsic tradeoff between stiffness and toughness, these entangled systems overcome such limitations by enabling stress dissipation through chain sliding and entropic elasticity. As a result, they exhibit exceptional mechanical robustness, high fatigue resistance, and minimal hysteresis. This review explores the structure-property-performance relationships and characterization methods associated with entangled networks, with particular emphasis on their advantages over highly chemically crosslinked gels. Key synthetic strategies, such as <i>in situ</i> polymerization under high monomer concentrations, spatial confinement approaches, and novel processing methods, are also discussed. Furthermore, we highlight the functional versatility and emerging applications of these polymer materials in flexible electronics, ion transport regulation, 3D printing, and environmental remediation, as well as the use of computational, simulation, and artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) approaches in studying their overall dynamic behavior. By consolidating recent advancements and identifying persisting challenges, this review aims to provide a roadmap for advancing highly entangled polymer gels toward harmonizing superior mechanical performance and multifunctional adaptability.","PeriodicalId":20326,"journal":{"name":"Polymer Reviews","volume":"40 1","pages":"1-35"},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2025-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145492165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its physicochemical characteristics are susceptible to the chosen synthesis method and operating conditions. Despite the growing number of studies exploring PANI for environmental applications, a well-defined and systematic basis for selecting optimal synthesis methods and conditions is still missing. This review critically analyzes the advantages and limitations of various PANI synthesis procedures, including chemical oxidative, electrochemical, enzymatic, and alternative polymerization methods, with a particular focus on how synthesis conditions (e.g., dopant type/concentration, oxidant, temperature) affect the conductivity, morphology, and surface area of the resulting polymer. Based on current evidence, chemical oxidative polymerization (COP) using 1 M HCl and ammonium persulfate (APS) at 0–5 °C and an APS/aniline molar ratio between 0.8 and 1.25 mol/mol is recommended to maximize conductivity and enhance performance for photocatalytic and adsorptive wastewater treatment. The review also highlights key knowledge gaps, particularly in downstream processing, and offers guidance for future research on scalable and sustainable PANI production.","PeriodicalId":20326,"journal":{"name":"Polymer Reviews","volume":"76 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2025-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145461291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
