(a) Schematic illustration of the micellar copolymerization of the UPyHCBA and acrylamide. The self-healing mechanism (i.e., hydrophobic interactions) of the micellar copolymerization hydrogels [183]. (b) Schematic illustration of the preparation process of silk fibroin-based hydrophobic-association hydrogels; optical images of the self-healing process of hydrogels over time; hydrogel region before and after healing.
