Abstract

Abstract : Viscoelastic Networks In article number 2205649, Ho Cheung Shum and co‐workers develop a new aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) that displays dynamic assembly of viscoelastic networks by aqueous liquid–liquid phase separation and liquid–solid phase separation (AqLL‐LS PS 2 ). Viscoelastic networks are generated using liquid–liquid phase‐separated DEX droplets as templates and the subsequent liquid‐to‐solid transition of the PNIPAM‐rich phase.
