Abstract:Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked polymers with several uses in the administration and loading of drugs as well as the capacity to hold enormous amounts of water or biological fluids. Using carboxymethyl cellulose, N,N-dimethyl acrylamide (DMA), 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulphonic acid (AMPS), N,N-bisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker, and potassium persulate (KPS) as an initiator, the CMC-g-poly(DMA-co-AMPS) was created. FTIR spectroscopy was used to characterize the CMC-g-poly(DMA-co-AMPS). In… Show more
