Abstract
• The recent developments of stimuli-responsive polymers (SRPs) for emerging applications were critically reviewed. • The classifications of SRPs into thermo-, pH-, light-, and multi-responsive polymers were comprehensively discussed. • The applications of SRPs in drug delivery, tissue engineering, environmental sensing, and water treatment were outlined. • Challenges associated with the design, responsiveness control, and scalability of SRPs were analyzed. • Future prospects for enhancing the biocompatibility, cost-effectiveness, and environmental sustainability of SRPs were considered. Stimuli-responsive polymers (SRPs) are among the most significant classes of smart materials (SM), undergoing dynamic…
