Tough, Rapidly Swelling Thermoplastic Elastomer Hydrogels for Hemorrhage Control

We present a novel elastomer with an amphiphilic triblock/graft architecture, allowing it to rapidly swell in water and form a tough hydrogel. The design was motivated by uncontrolled hemorrhage, responsible for 80–90% of potentially survivable deaths of US soldiers over the past 15 years. The polym...
