pH-thermoreversible hydrogels. I. Synthesis and characterization of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide/maleic acid) copolymeric hydrogels
N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAM)/maleic acid (MA) copolymeric hydrogels were prepared by irradiating the ternary mixtures of NIPAAM/MA/Water by g-rays at ambient temperature. The influence of external stimuli such as pH and temperature of the swelling media on the equilibrium swelling properties was investigated. The hydrogels showed both temperature and pH responses. The effect of comonomer conc...
متن کاملpH-sensitivity of fast responsive superporous hydrogels.
Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels (or smart hydrogels) are hydrogels that swell or shrink in response to small changes in environmental conditions in which they are placed. While the extent of swelling or shrinking may be large, the kinetics of such changes is slow, since the diffusion of water into and out of the hydrogel is a slow process. To obtain fast responses, we have prepared superporous hydr...
متن کاملMechanically strong, fluorescent hydrogels from zwitterionic, fully π-conjugated polymers.
Mechanically strong supramolecular hydrogels (up to 98.9% water content) were obtained by the combination of a rigid, fully π-conjugated polymer backbone and zwitterionic side chains. The gels were characterized by SAXS, SEM and rheology measurements and are fluorescent, stimuli responsive (temperature, salts) and bind DNA.
متن کاملElectrically conductive, tough hydrogels with pH sensitivity
Electrically conductive, mechanically tough hydrogels based on a double network (DN) comprised of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PPEGMA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were produced. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) was chemically polymerized within the tough DN gel to provide electronic conductivity. The effects of pH on the tensile and compressive mechanical properties...
متن کاملMechanically strong triple network hydrogels based on hyaluronan and poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide).
Hyaluronan (HA) is a natural polyelectrolyte with distinctive biological functions. Cross-linking of HA to generate less degradable hydrogels for use in biomedical applications has attracted interest over many years. One limitation of HA hydrogels is that they are very brittle and/or easily dissolve in physiological environments, which limit their use in load-bearing applications. Herein, we de...
