Polyacrylamide hydrogels formed via hydrophobic interactions between stearyl groups in aqueous micellar solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) present two faces depending on which state they are. The gels containing SDS micelles exhibit, addition to the fast mode, a slow relaxation mode dynamic light scattering (DLS) and time-dependent elastic moduli, indicating temporary nature associations having lifetimes order seconds milliseconds. where had been removed after their preparation behave...
Among the hydrogels prepared in recent years, double network (DN) exhibit highest compression strength, toughness, and fracture energies. However, synthesis of DN with extraordinary mechanical properties is limited to polyelectrolyte networks, which hinders their widespread applications. Herein, we nonionic triple (TN) based on polyacrylamide (PAAm) poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA) a high strength by sequential polymerization reactions. The TN approach decrease translational entropy...
Many natural materials such as intervertebral disk (IVD) are composed of regions with large mismatches in the mechanical properties, yet these integrated through an extremely tough interface. To mimic heterogeneity inherent biological systems, we present here mechanically strong hydrogels consisting hard and soft components joined together a Stratification monomer solutions having different densities was used to create two layers interlayer region few millimeters thickness, at which mix...
Biofunctionality and biocompatibility are essential when tissue or organs supplemented replaced with a polymer based material. Here, we prepared stearyl methacrylate (SM) vinylpyrrolidone (VP) biocompatible SM-x networks self-healing shape memory properties. The mole ratios were gradually changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic units between 10 90% obtain gels meeting the requirements in various potential bioapplications. In addition having time-dependent viscoelastic character, mechanical...
Natural biological systems such as intervertebral disk, tendon, and ligament consist of regions with distinctly different mechanical properties, yet these intermesh each other through an extremely tough interface. Here the authors present mechanically strong, three‐segmented hybrid hydrogels comprising soft hard components in a fused body resembling heterogeneity materials. An easy UV‐initiated bulk copolymerization method stratified monomer solutions is used to synthesize hydrogels. In this...
