Switching the Adhesive State of Catecholic Hydrogels using Phototitration

Abstract: A polyacrylamide hydrogel system that can be liquefied by remote activation using UV irradiation is investigated as a degradable adhesive. The linear polyacrylamide copolymer, formed by conventional free-radical polymerization, contains biomimetic catechol−iron-mediated crosslinkers that are sensitive to pH changes. Hydrogel films and bulk gels are prepared by basic titration of a polymer solution doped with a photoacid generator, diphenyliodonium chloride, generating an ionic cross-linked network via the cate… Show more

“…It has been pointed out that mono-complex could be formed between catechol and Fe 3+ ions at low pH value. [35][36][37] However, the monocomplexation could not lead to effective crosslinking. On the other hand, Fe 3+ ions could also promote catechol-catechol covalent linkages formation, which is a fast reaction at pH ≤ 3.…”

“…The photocleavable o ‐nitrophenyl ethyl moieties were then employed for optical debonding. In another study, Locklin and co‐workers showed that in the presence of photoacid generators, light can be used to manipulate the pH, and therefore the adhesion properties of a pH‐dependent network . The system investigated comprised a hydrogel based on a polyacrylamide copolymer carrying catechol groups that undergoes a gel–sol transition upon UV irradiation (λ = 254 nm).…”

“…The adhesion strengths of PA-0.3, PA-0.4, and PA-0.5 are quite similar, thus demonstrating that a maximum plateau may be reached in PA-0.3. This DOPA derivative has been incorporated into many synthetic adhesives [8e11, 14,15], and the amount of catechol contents in the polymer can influence the adhesion performance dramatically. Theoretically, more catechol groups can provide more interaction with the substrate, thus enhance the adhesion force.…”
