The dispersions containing two kinds of layered solids—graphene oxide (GO) and exfoliated montmorillonite (MMT) were mainly prepared, following which the binary aerogels were synthesized. The results indicate that the formation of liquid crystals (LCs) occurs at lower GO concentration and the birefringence becomes stronger when MMT is introduced into GO dispersion. Sol–gel transition forms in the binary suspensions with different mass fractions of MMT and GO. LCs with highly ordered alignment are observed in the gel and the fraction of LCs obviously increases with the increase in GO concentration. Moreover, the birefringence is observed in MMT–GO binary aerogels with the interconnected three-dimensional porous network, which is attributed to the ordered arrangement of MMT and GO nanosheets in pore walls. Among the aerogels with different MMT/GO ratios, the samples at the ratio of 10 : 1 show better adsorption capacity and removal percentage of cationic and anionic dyes.

Nanogels represent an innovative platform for tunable drug release and targeted therapy in several biomedical applications, ranging from cancer to neurological disorders. The design of these nanocarriers is a pivotal topic investigated by the researchers over the years, with the aim to optimize the procedures and provide advanced nanomaterials. Chemical reactions, physical interactions and the developments of engineered devices are the three main areas explored to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional nanofabrication approaches. This review proposes a focus on the current techniques used in nanogel design, highlighting the upgrades in physico-chemical methodologies, microfluidics and 3D printing. Polymers and biomolecules can be combined to produce ad hoc nanonetworks according to the final curative aims, preserving the criteria of biocompatibility and biodegradability. Controlled polymerization, interfacial reactions, sol-gel transition, manipulation of the fluids at the nanoscale, lab-on-a-chip technology and 3D printing are the leading strategies to lean on in the next future and offer new solutions to the critical healthcare scenarios.
