SUPER TOUGH GELS WITH A DOUBLE NETWORK STRUCTURE

Living tissues work with fantastic functions in soft and wet gel-like state.Thus,hydrogels have attracted much attention as excellent soft and wet materials,suitable tot making artificial organs for medical treatments.However, conventional hydrogels are mechanically too weak for practical uses.We have created double network (DN) hydrogels with extremely high mechanical strength in order to overcome this problem.DN gels are interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogels consisting of rigid polyelectrolyte and s...     

水溶性导电高分子聚噻吩及其水凝胶的掺杂行为研究

用碘和高氯酸作掺杂剂对水溶性导电高分子聚（3-羧甲基噻吩）及其水凝胶的掺杂行为进行了系统研究。结果发现水溶胀聚（3-羧甲基噻吩）凝胶及其高分子很容易被高氯酸或碘的水溶液进行掺杂，且其掺杂能力强烈依赖于掺杂剂溶液浓度。对碘掺杂的高分子溶液，其掺杂过程不很稳定同时伴随着脱掺杂过程的发生，而对于聚噻吩凝胶，高氯酸极易使其掺杂，而且一旦掺杂则在掺杂状态下具有相对的稳定性。
