Hydrogels are widely used in wound dressings due to their moisturizing properties and biocompatibility. However, traditional hydrogel dressings cannot monitor wounds and provide accurate treatment. Recent advancements focus on hydrogel dressings with integrated monitoring and treatment functions, using sensors or intelligent materials to detect changes in the wound microenvironment. These dressings enable responsive treatment to promote wound healing. They can carry out responsive dynamic treatment in time to effectively promote wound healing. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive reviews of hydrogel wound dressings that incorporate both wound micro-environment monitoring and treatment functions. Therefore, this review categorizes hydrogel dressings according to wound types and examines their current status, progress, challenges, and future trends. It discusses various wound types, including infected wounds, burns, and diabetic and pressure ulcers, and explores the wound healing process. The review presents hydrogel dressings that monitor wound conditions and provide tailored treatment, such as pH-sensitive, temperature-sensitive, glucose-sensitive, pressure-sensitive, and nano-composite hydrogel dressings. Challenges include developing dressings that meet the standards of excellent biocompatibility, improving monitoring accuracy and sensitivity, and overcoming obstacles to production and commercialization. Furthermore, it provides the current status, progress, challenges, and future trends in this field, aiming to give a clear view of its past, present, and future.

Electret melt-blown nonwovens are widely used for air purification due to their low pressure drop and high filtration efficiency. However, the charge stability could be affected by the ambient temperature and humidity, reducing the filtration efficiency, resulting in the electret melt blown filter not providing effective protection. Herein, we used corona charge to prepare electret melt-blown nonwovens and systematically studied the effects of different temperature and humidity on the structure, morphology, filtration performance, and surface potential within 24 h. The effect of treatment temperature and humidity on pressure drop was minimal because the fiber morphology and web structure of melt-blown nonwovens were not damaged. When the treatment temperature was lower than 70 °C, the effect on the filtration efficiency of the sample was small, but when the temperature increased to 90 or 110 °C, the filtration efficiency decreased significantly with the increase of the treatment time, and the surface potential also declined similarly. In conclusion, high temperatures will lead to charge escape and reduce the electrostatic adsorption effect. Furthermore, at the same temperature, increasing relative humidity can accelerate the charge release and make the filtration efficiency drop more. After the sample was treated at 110 °C and 90% relative humidity for 24 h, the filtration efficiency decreased from 95.49% to 38.16% at a flow rate of 14.16 cm s⁻¹, and the surface potential dropped to the lowest value of −1.01 kV. This result shows that all links of electret melt-blown filter material from raw material to final use should be avoided in high temperature and high humidity conditions to ensure the protection effect.

A multifunctional composite filter combined with nanocrystalline MnO₂ and a PE/PP bicomponent fiber by introducing corona charge technology has been fabricated and exhibited excellent filtration, adsorption and catalytic abilities in air pollutant abatement.
