pH-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 کاملApplication of rod-shaped cellulose nanocrystals in polyacrylamide hydrogels.
Rod-shaped cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were manufactured and used to reinforce polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogels through in situ free-radical polymerization. The gelation process of the nanocomposite hydrogels was monitored on a rheometer using oscillatory shear. The chemical structure, morphology, swelling property, and compression strength of the formed gels were investigated. A possible mecha...
متن کاملSimple approach to reinforce hydrogels with cellulose nanocrystals.
The physical crosslinking of colloidal nanoparticles via dynamic and directional non-covalent interactions has led to significant advances in composite hydrogels. In this paper, we report a simple approach to fabricate tough, stretchable and hysteretic isotropic nanocomposite hydrogels, where rod-like cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are encapsulated by flexible polymer chains of poly(N,N-dimethyl...
متن کاملMagneto-responsive hybrid materials based on cellulose nanocrystals
We fabricated self-standing films of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and electrospun composite fibers with CNC and polyvinyl alcohol both with magnetic properties arising from cobalt iron oxide nanoparticles in the CNC matrix. Aqueous dispersions of cobalt-iron oxide nanoparticles (10–80 nm diameter) and CNCs (ca. 150 nm length) were used as precursor systems for the films and composite fibers. Th...
متن کاملSynthesis and Swelling Behavior of pH-Sensitive Semi-IPN Superabsorbent Hydrogels Based on Poly(acrylic acid) Reinforced with Cellulose Nanocrystals
pH-sensitive poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogel reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) was prepared. Acrylic acid (AA) was subjected to chemical cross-linking using the cross-linking agent MBA (N,N-methylenebisacrylamide) with CNC entrapped in the PAA matrix. The quantity of CNC was varied between 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 wt %. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data showed an increase in crystallini...
