Modification of Polyvinyl Alcohol via Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization for Targeted Drug Delivery Applications
Authors
Abstract:
In current study,a hydrogel based on biocompatible polymerwas prepared. The functionalization of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)with epichlorohydrin(ECH) to produce epichlorohydrin-g-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA/ECH) as a suitable macroinitiator for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) reaction was investigated.ThenN-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) waspolymerized on the surface of macroinitiatorin presence of CuCl as a catalyst and Pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) as aligand using ATRP to produce PNVP-g-PVA. The synthesized copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Also equilibrium swelling was studied in distilled water and indicated the sustained expansion of them. At last, loading capacity and release profiles of ceftriaxone as a model drug from the hydrogel were determined by UV– Vis absorption measurement at λmax= 243 nm. In vitro drug release behavior was investigated in three different media (HCl solution: pH=3 and bicarbonate buffer solutions: pH=7 and pH=8).

Overcoming the challenge of metal contamination in traditional ATRP systems, a metal-free ATRP process, mediated by light and catalyzed by an organic-based photoredox catalyst, is reported. Polymerization of vinyl monomers are efficiently activated and deactivated with light leading to excellent control over the molecular weight, polydispersity, and chain ends of the resulting polymers. Signifi...

This Perspective presents recent advances in macromolecular engineering enabled by ATRP. They include the fundamental mechanistic and synthetic features of ATRP with emphasis on various catalytic/initiation systems that use parts-per-million concentrations of Cu catalysts and can be run in environmentally friendly media, e.g., water. The roles of the major components of ATRP--monomers, initiato...

Cellulose was modified by polystyrene (PS) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) via free radical and living radical polymerization, and then cellulose was used as the matrix in the preparation of polymer/clay nanocomposite, through a solution intercalation method. For this purpose, first, the graft polymerization of styrene (St) onto cellulose fibers was performed by using suspension polymerization and ...
