Pluronic surfactants, PEO-PPO-PEO triblock copolymers, have been investigated widely due to their protein-resistant properties in applications as coatings for implants and in controlled drug release systems. We have studied a wide range of these copolymers, varying in both PEO and PPO block size, by
## Abstract This article reports a detailed study on the hydrogel formation of poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(propylene oxide)–poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO‐PPO‐PEO) triblock copolymers with α‐cyclodextrin (α‐CD) in aqueous solutions. The gelation kinetics and the gel rheological properties were studied usi
