We designed pressure responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites by incorporating agar hydrogel beads of different size distributions within a molten soap matrix at various volume fractions. Upon cooling, the combined suspension of hydrogel beads into t... Read More about Smart soaps: stimulus responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites for controlled dissolution and release of actives.
