Abstract: | Polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyacrylamide (PAAm) double network (DN) hydrogels with high mechanical strength (about 1.5 MPa) are obtained when two kinds of monomer solutions of 4M AA with 5 mol% crosslinker and 4M AAm with 0.1 mol% crosslinker are used for the optimal preparation. Their high mechanical strength can be maintained even at high water content (above 50%) and at external stimuli (solvent and pH). This optimized DN hydrogel is used to develop the PAA/PAAm inverse opal hydrogel with DN structure by twice infiltration-polymerization and colloidal templating. Its photonic stop band can be tuned by controlling the solvent and pH. It first shows a small red-shift (about 20 nm), and then a large blue-shift (about 180 nm) with the increased ethanol content. For pH response, the DN inverse opal hydrogel has a large stop-band shift of about 140 nm when the pH increases from 1.2 to 5.6. Moreover, the DN inverse opal hydrogel also shows rapid recovery ability without hysteresis phenomenon in strong acidic environment, good reproducibility and durability. The interaction between the independently crosslinked PAA network and PAAm network plays a significant role in determining the response performance. |
