Advancements in Gel Science-A Special Issue in Memory of Toyoichi Tanaka

A gel is a state of matter that consists of a three-dimensional cross-linked polymer network and a large amount of solvent. Because of their structural characteristics, gels play important roles in science and technology. The science of gels has attracted much attention since the discovery of the vo...
