Front Cover: Polyhydroxymethylene (PHM) represents a high molecular weight sugar alcohol unparalleled in nature and tailored by free radical vinylene carbonate polymerization followed by hydrolysis and aminolysis. Applications of PHM and the corresponding polyhydroxymethylene urethanes include hydrogels, asymmetric membranes, collagen blends, electrospun (nano) fiber nonwovens, and scaffolds with hierarchic pore architectures of interest for regenerative medicine and healthcare. In article number 2000132 by Rolf Mülhaupt and co‐workers, PHM and functionalized PHMs as carbohydrateinspired multifunctional materials indicate in vitro biocompatibility which holds great promise for applications in medicine and healthcare.

专为3D打印和医学应用量身定制的多功能羟基高分子糖醇

封面：聚羟基亚甲基（PHM）代表高分子量的糖醇，其性质无与伦比，可通过自由基碳酸亚乙烯酯聚合，水解和氨解来定制。PHM和相应的聚羟甲基氨基甲酸酯的应用包括水凝胶，不对称膜，胶原蛋白共混物，静电纺丝（纳米）纤维非织造布和具有感兴趣的层状孔结构的支架，可用于再生医学和医疗保健。在RolfMülhaupt及其同事的文章编号2000132中，PHM和功能化PHM作为受碳水化合物启发的多功能材料，表明了体外生物相容性，这在医学和医疗保健领域具有广阔的应用前景。
