  • Patent number: 12653929
    Abstract: The subject invention pertains to multifunctional tendon-mimetic hydrogels constructed from anisotropic assembly of aramid nanofiber composites. The stiff nanofibers and soft polyvinyl alcohol in these anisotropic composite hydrogels (ACHs) mimic the structural interplay between aligned collagen fibers and proteoglycans in tendons. The ACHs uniquely exhibit a high modulus of ˜1.1 GPa, strength of ˜72 MPa, fracture toughness of 7333 J/m2, and many additional characteristics matching those of natural tendons. The surfaces of ACHs can be functionalized with bioactive molecules to present biophysical cues for the modulation of morphology, phenotypes, and other behaviors of attached cells. Moreover, soft bioelectronic components can be integrated on ACHs, enabling in-situ stimulation and sensing of various physiological parameters.
