High strength and bioactivity polyvinyl alcohol/collagen composite hydrogel with tannic acid as cross‐linker

Abstract: Hydrogels have great potential applications in biomedical materials, but their applications in complex physiological environments are severely limited by their weak strength and biotoxicity. Generally, synthetic polymer hydrogels and natural polymer hydrogels have complementary advantages in terms of mechanical strength and biological activity. Herein, tannic acid (TA), a natural material, was introduced into the polyvinyl alcohol/collagen (PVA‐COL) double network to prepare a hydrogel (PVA‐COL‐TA) with good b… Show more

“…[ 3–5 ] Similar to other natural polymers, CLG also lacks sufficient mechanical stability and it is very susceptible to enzymatic degradation from macrophages, polymorph nuclear leukocytes, and bacteria. [ 6, 7 ] Various synthetic cross‐linkers such as glutaraldehyde, epoxy compounds, or oxazolidine increase the tensile strength and resistance to enzymatic degradation of the adsorbent made from only CLG. [ 8 ] However, the amine (─NH 2 ) functionality of CLG, responsible for its electrostatic interaction with dye molecules become unavailable due to chemical crosslinking and the crosslinker also increases toxicity of the CLG.…”

“…Still, their biological inertness, blocking any chances of tuning cell behavior towards a healthier state, limits their use in biomedicine [ 63 , 64 ]. Hybrid hydrogels, combining natural and synthetic polymers [ 65 ], have been proven useful to create smart hydrogels (alginate-g-(PEO-poly(propylene oxide)-PEO) [ 66 ]), in biomedical materials (PVA/collagen [ 67 ]) and in tissue engineering applications (CS/PCL [ 47 ]), to name a few examples. Their polymer composition may also subdivide hydrogels in homopolymers, copolymers, multipolymers or interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) [ 68 ].…”

“…Periodate compounds are commonly used for the oxidation of functional groups [ 15 ] and could be used for the selective oxidation of vicinal diols to aldehyde groups [ 16 ]. Usage of those oxidizers is well known for obtaining hydrogels, linking tannin in their network [ 17 , 18 , 19 ]. Additionally, increasing the pH in oxidation reactions with periodate-containing substances is another important thing to mention.…”
