The Adsorption of Polyacrylamide Nanocomposite Hydrogels on Sandstone
A key parameter for the application of polymer gels in water shut off treatment is the adsorption of polymer gel onto the rock surface. So, the adsorption properties of a nanocomposite hydrogel were discussed in this research by crosslinking of sulfonated polyacrylamide/sodium montmorillonite aqueous solutions with chromium triacetate. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicated that exfoliated ty...
متن کاملPreparation of DNA-crosslinked polyacrylamide hydrogels.
Mechanobiology is an emerging scientific area that addresses the critical role of physical cues in directing cell morphology and function. For example, the effect of tissue elasticity on cell function is a major area of mechanobiology research because tissue stiffness modulates with disease, development, and injury. Static tissue-mimicking materials, or materials that cannot alter stiffness onc...
متن کاملFatigue fracture of hydrogels
Rapid advances are taking place to develop hydrogels of high stretchability and toughness, but fatigue fracture has not been studied for any hydrogels. This negligence hinders the development of hydrogels and their applications. Herewe initiate a study of fatigue fracture of hydrogels.We choose polyacrylamide hydrogel as a model material. To place fatigue fracture in context, we apply monotonic...
متن کاملPolyacrylamide hydrogels as substrates for studying bacteriawz
Since its introduction by Robert Koch in 1882, agar has been the most commonly used substrate for the growth and study of bacteria. Agar consists of alternating blocks of D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose and is a polysaccharide with a variety of characteristics that are useful for culturing bacteria: (1) it is biocompatible; (2) it is inert to metabolism and degradation by bacteria; (3) ...
متن کاملEquilibrium swelling, conductivity and electroactive characteristics of polyacrylamide hydrogels
Polyelectrolyte hydrogels are currently being studied extensively towards the realization of soft actuators. The conductivity, swelling behaviour and electroactive characteristics of partially hydrolysed polyacrylamide hydrogels, crosslinked to various extents are investigated. Conductivity studies have been made by means of dielectric relaxation spectroscopy both for hydrogels and dry gel powd...
