Novel physically cross-linked hydrogels, composed of PVA and hydroxy-terminated polyamidoamine(PAMAM) dendrimer G6-OH, were prepared by cyclic freezing/thawing treatment of aqueous solutions containing PVA and G6-OH. ...Novel physically cross-linked hydrogels, composed of PVA and hydroxy-terminated polyamidoamine(PAMAM) dendrimer G6-OH, were prepared by cyclic freezing/thawing treatment of aqueous solutions containing PVA and G6-OH. FTIR analysis indicates that PAMAM dendrimer G6-OH was successfully introduced into PVA hydrogels. Higher contents of G6-OH in PVA/G6-OH hydrogels resulted in higher swelling ratios, and faster reswelling rates. With the increase of freezing/thawing cyclic times, the swelling ratios and reswelling rates of PVA/G6-OH hydrogels decreased, which is similar to that of physically cross-linked PVA hydrogel.展开更多

Then, supramolecular-structured hydrogels were prepared from the polyseudorotaxanes in a mixed solvent of H 2O and DMSO via in-situ polymerization photoinitiated under UV. The structure and properties of the supramolecular-structured hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, TGA and WAXD. The results showed that α-CDs were threaded and immobilized on the network of the hydrogel by rapid photopolymerization, and the feed ratio of α-CDs affected the structure of hydrogels, water absorption, the distribution and states of water, etc..展开更多
