Development of Semi- and Grafted Interpenetrating Polymer Networks Based on Poly(Ethylene Glycol) Diacrylate and Collagen

Abstract: The grafting procedure was found to significantly improve the mechanical stability of the IPN hydrogels, due to the establishment of covalent bonding between the PEGDA/poly(AA) and the collagen networks. The suitability of the composite hydrogels to be processed by means of stereolithography (SLA) was also investigated, toward creating biomimetic constructs with complex shapes, which might be useful either as platforms for tissue engineering applications or as tissue mimicking phantoms.

“…Such tests were carried out both to assess the mechanical properties of the samples and probing the degree of crosslinking by using the theory of rubber elasticity. Indeed, in the case of a perfect rubber‐like polymer network subjected to small uniaxial deformations (i.e., for negligible volume changes either in compression or elongation), the Flory relationship might be used to estimate the elastically effective degree of crosslinking as reported in a previous work …”

“…To date, a variety of bioinks have proved their merits in stereolithography/DMD bioprinting including PEGDA, GelMA, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), collagen, HA, and their blends [113115, 117, 129131]. For example, Zhang et al directly patterned 3D microscale objects made of PEGDA into a variety of shapes, such as stepwise, spiral, embryo-like, and flower-like microstructures (Fig.…”

“…For example, Suri and Schmidt patterned an IPN hybrid hydrogel by combining HA, a high-molecular weight glycosaminoglycan ubiquitously found in many cartilaginous tissues, and collagen, a major macromolecular component in the ECM, for use as scaffolds in engineering functional tissues [130]. Similarly, Madaghiele et al used a mixture of PEGDA and acrylic acid for the stereolithographic fabrication of 3D hydrogel scaffolds in the presence of collagen [129]. The grafting of collagen macromolecules through the carbodiimide chemistry to the PEGDA/PAA network further increased both the bioactivity and the mechanical properties of the resulting hydrogel constructs.…”

“…The nature of the biomaterial and the fabrication process are the major aspects that influence the scaffold properties . Over the years, different materials (such as metals, ceramics, glass, synthetic and natural polymers) have been used to produce scaffold . Biodegradable polymers including poly(glycolic acid) (PGA), poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly[lactic‐co‐(glycolic acid)] (PLGA), polyethylene glicol, chitosan, collagen, hyaluronic acid, and alginate have been widely used in the tissue engineering of cartilage, bone, skin, ligament, and so forth.…”

In order to produce the porous structure, the most common foaming techniques are based on salt leaching, gas foaming, phase separation, freeze-drying, electrospinning techniques.…”
