The rheological and thermal characteristics of freeze-thawed hydrogels containing hydrogen peroxide for potential wound healing applications

Modulating the mechanical properties of photopolymerised polyethylene glycol–polypropylene glycol hydrogels for bone regeneration

“…ATR-FTIR confirmed that the surface solution was, in fact, low-molecular weight polymer. Previous studies have reported similar behaviour for other acrylates [38][39][40].…”

Treatment of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and Di-bromo-aldehyde manufacturing wastewater by the coupled Fenton pretreatment and UASB reactor with emphasis on optimization and chemicals analysis

“…The pathway of TMBA degradation during the Fenton oxidation process needs be further confirmed by the analysis of intermediates. FT-IR spectroscopy was used to gain a superficial understanding of the organic compounds characteristics [29]. The FT-IR spectra of raw wastewater and after Fenton oxidation are presented in Fig.…”

Drug delivery dressings

“…Hydrogen peroxide, on the other hand, is a small molecular weight compound traditionally used for desloughing that, despite its known cytotoxicity (Brown and Zitelli, 1993;Mertz and Ovington, 1993) has recently been incorporated in wholly synthetic hydrogels of poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(acrylic acid) (Smith et al, 2009). These authors claim that differing functionality created by variations in hydrogen peroxide concentration produce thermal properties in the hydrogels that cause a weakening of the hydrogel at bodily temperatures and may make them useful as (controlled) delivery systems.…”
