Dendritic hydrogels from dendritic-linear-dendritic (DLD) block copolymers based on PEG and bis-MPA dendrons were constructed via UV-initiated thiol-ene, thiol-yne, CuAAC, and amine-NHS crosslinking chemistries. Stoichiometric ratio manipulations, prior to film formation, resulted in functional hydrogels with tuneable compressive moduli. The highest gel fractions for all networks were obtained at off-stoichiometric ratios with surplus of DLDs. Finally, sustainable networks were fabricated by amalgamating DLD, naturally abundant cellulose nanocrystal, and protein-based bovine serum albumin.
