Novel synthesis of macroporous poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogels using oil-in-water emulsions

Porous N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) hydrogels having a unique structure, that is, spherelike cavities distributed randomly and a homogeneous network in the gel phase, were successfully synthesized by means of an emulsion templating method; this method involves the synthesis of NIPA gels in an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion by free radical copolymerization with a cross-linker, followed by washing (removal) of the dispersed oil as a pore template (porogen). The synthesis conditions, O/W volume ratio, amount of added surfactant, and monomer concentration affect the internal pore structure, equilibrium swelling, and swelling/shrinking kinetics. A porous hydrogel swollen at 10 degrees C has a pore diameter distribution in the range of 1-40 microm, which was observed with a scanning electron microscope. Scanning electron micrographs and swelling degree reveal that the pore size and porosity can be adjusted by varying the O/W volume ratios and surfactant amounts. The porous hydrogels show very rapid swelling/shrinking in accordance with the temperature swing. The fast response is attributed to the convection flow of water through the macropores. In addition to a faster response gel, the emulsion templating method can yield potentially intelligent gels in which the pores function as spaces for reaction, separation, and storage.     

Characterization of Super‐Absorbent Material Based on Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium Salt Prepared by Electron Beam Irradiation

Crosslinked CMC‐N/PAAm hydrogel were prepared using electron beam irradiation. The factors affecting the degree of crosslinking and swelling behavior of the prepared copolymer were determined. As the irradiation dose and/or PAAm concentration increase, the gel content increases. Preparation of super‐porous hydrogel was attained by the addition of ammonium carbonate as a gas‐blowing agent during the irradiation process. The surface morphology and pore structure of such a prepared hydrogel were examined using scanning electron microscopy. The ability of the prepared hydrogel to absorb and retain large amount of water and as simulating urine was measured. The results suggested the possible use of CMC‐Na/PAAm hydrogels in the personal care product industry.

Phase Transition of Acrylamide‐Based Polyampholyte Gels in Water

The swelling behavior of acrylamide (AAm)–based polyampholyte hydrogels in water and in aqueous salt (NaCl) solutions was investigated. [(Methacrylamido)propyl]trimethyl‐ammonium chloride (MAPTAC) and acrylic acid (AAc) were used as the ionic comonomer in the hydrogel preparation. Three sets of hydrogels containing 70 mol% AAm and 30 mol% ionic comonomers of varying mole ratios were prepared. The variations of the hydrogel volume in response to changes in pH, and salt concentration were measured. As pH increases from 1, the hydrogel volume V _eq in water first increases and reaches a maximum value at a certain pH. Then, it decreases again with a further increase in pH and attains a minimum value around the isoelectric point (IEP). After passing the collapsed plateau region, the gel reswells again up to pH=7.1. The reswelling of the collapsed gels containing 10 and 4% MAPTAC occurs as a first‐order phase transition at pH=5.85 and 4.35, respectively, while the hydrogel with 1% MAPTAC reswells continuously beyond its IEP. Depending on pH of the solution, the hydrogels immersed in salt solutions exhibit typical polyelectrolyte or antipolyelectrolye behavior. The experimental swelling data were compared with the predictions of the Flory‐Rehner theory of swelling equilibrium including the ideal Donnan equilibria. It was shown that the equilibrium swelling theory qualitatively predicts the experimental behavior of polyampholyte hydrogels.

Macroporous Poly(Acrylamide) Hydrogels: Swelling and Shrinking Behaviors

Macroporous poly(acrylamide) hydrogels have been synthesized by using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with three different molecular weights as the pore‐forming agent. Scanning electron microscope graphs reveal that the macroporous network structure of the hydrogels can be adjusted by applying different molecular weights of PEG during the polymerization reaction. The swelling ratios of the PEG‐modified hydrogels were much higher than those for the same type of hydrogel prepared via conventional method. However, the swelling/deswelling ratios of the PEG‐modified hydrogels were affected slightly by the change in the amount of the PEG. Scanning electron microscopy experiments, together with swelling ratio studies, reveal that the PEG‐modified hydrogels are characterized by an open structure with more pores and higher swelling ratio, but lower mechanical strength, compared the conventional hydrogel. PAAm has potential applications in controlled release of macromolecular active agents.

Synthesis,characterization and evaluation of semi‐IPN hydrogels consisted of poly(methacrylic acid) and guar gum for colon‐specific drug delivery

The semi‐IPN hydrogels consisting of poly(methacrylic acid) and guar gum (GG) are prepared at room temperature using water as solvent. 5‐aminosalicylic acid (5‐ASA) is entrapped in the hydrogel in the synthesis of hydrogel and all entrapment efficiencies are found above 85%. The hydrogel shows excellent pH‐sensitivity. It exhibited minimum swelling in an acidic pH medium through the formation of a complex hydrogen‐bonded structure and maximal swelling due to the electrostatic repulsion due to the ionization of the carboxylic groups in pH 7.4 medium. The degradation in vitro shows that the degree of degradation (R%) depended on the concentration of cross‐linking agent and content of GG. The hydrogel shows a minimum release of 5‐ASA due to the complex hydrogen bonded structure of the hydrogels in the medium of pH 2.2. The enzymatic degradation of hydrogels by cecal bacteria can accelerate the release of 5‐ASA entrapped in the hydrogel in pH 7.4 medium. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Preparation and characterization of temperature- and pH-sensitive hemicellulose-containing hydrogels

In this work, a hemicellulose-containing hydrogel was synthesized. As the first step, a temperature- and pH-sensitive copolymer was synthesized from itaconic acid and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm). Then the hydrogel was prepared by reacting the copolymer with acylated hemicellulose and polyvinyl alcohol. The morphology, compressive strength, thermal stability, swelling/deswelling behavior, drug-release behavior performances of the hydrogels were investigated. The lower critical solution temperature of the hydrogels varied in 34–44°C when the NIPAAm and itaconic acid mass ratios ranged in 100/0–90/10. Both temperature and pH had a significant influence on equilibrium swelling ratio of hydrogels. The equilibrium swelling ratio increased with pH, but decreased with temperature. Cytocompatibility assay demonstrated that this hemicellulose-containing hydrogel was biocompatible. The release process of salicylic acid suggested that this hydrogel had a potential use in controlled drug release.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Hydrogels Based on Gamma Radiation Copolymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide and Ethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate Monomers

Hydrogels based essentially on N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and different ratios of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) monomer were synthesized by gamma radiation copolymerization. The thermal decomposition behavior of NIPAAm/EGDMA hydrogels was determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The effect of temperature and pH on the swelling behavior was also studied. The results showed that the ratio of EGDMA in the comonomer feeding solution has a great effect on the yield product, gel fraction and water content in the final hydrogel. In this regard, it was observed that the increase of EGDMA ratio decreased these properties. The TGA study showed that all the compositions of NIPAAm/EGDMA hydrogels displayed higher thermal stability than the hydrogel based on pure PNIPAAm hydrogel. The swelling kinetics in water showed that pure PNIPAAm and NIPAAm/EGDMA hydrogels reached equilibrium after 6 h. However, NIPAAm/EGDMA hydrogels show swelling in water lower than pure PNIPAAm. The results showed that the swelling character of pure PNIPAAm and NIPAAm/EGDMA hydrogels was affected by the change in temperature within the temperature range 25–40°C, and showed a reversible change in swelling in the pH range 4–7 depending on composition.     

Modified chitosan III,superabsorbency, salt‐ and pH‐sensitivity of smart ampholytic hydrogels from chitosan‐g‐PAN

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) grafted chitosan was prepared by ceric‐initiated graft polymerization of acrylonitrile onto chitosan in a homogenous medium. The copolymer chitosan‐g‐PAN product was then hydrolyzed to yield a novel smart hydrogel (H‐chitoPAN) with superabsorbing properties. The influence of add‐on values as well as temperature and time of hydrolysis of the initial chitosan‐g‐PAN on swelling behavior of the hydrogel was evaluated in water and various salt solutions. The swelling kinetics of the superabsorbing hydrogel was studied as well. The hydrogels exhibited ampholytic and pH‐sensitivity characteristics. Several sharp swelling changes were observed in lieu of pH variations in a wide range (pH 2–13). The swelling variations were explained according to swelling theory based on the hydrogel chemical structure. Superabsorbency, pH‐ and salt‐sensitivity of the chitosan‐based hydrogel was briefly compared with the classical starch‐based superabsorbent, H‐SPAN. The pH‐reversibility and on–off switching behavior of the intelligent H‐chitoPAN hydrogels makes them good candidates for considering as potential drug carries.

Studies on syntheses and dynamic swelling of pH-sensitive macroporous poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels

A series of macroporous poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNIPAm-AA) hydrogels with different composition were synthesized by free-radical copolymerization in the presence of silica particles as a pore generating agent. The equilibrium swelling ratio, half swelling time and dynamic swelling kinetics of the copolymers previously soaked in different acidic buffer solutions were investigated at pH 7 at 25°C. Experimental results revealed that the swelling rate of the macroporous hydrogels was greatly increased compared to conventional hydrogels due to existence of the macroporous structures. It was found that the swelling history of previously putting in acidic solutions copolymers had strong influence on their dynamic swelling kinetics especially for the samples ranging in composition between 30 and 70 mol % of NIPAAm, whereas the swelling history had little influence on the equilibrium swelling ratio of copolymers. The swelling pattern exhibits sigmoid swelling curves. This is explained by an autocatalytic mechanism. The hydrogen bonding dissociation plays an important role in the dynamic swelling behavior.
