In this study, a novel semi-interpenetrating network (semi-IPN’s) hydrogel, composed of acrylamide (AAm) with N-vinylimidazole (NVI) as comonomer, with poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) and a multifunctional crosslinker such as trimethylolpropane
triacrylate (TMPTA) was prepared. Highly swollen poly (AAm/NVI) hydrogels and semi-IPN’s were synthesized by free radical
solution polymerization. Swelling experiments were performed in water at 25°C, gravimetrically. The influence of NVI and PEG
content in hydrogels were examined. Poly (AAm/NVI) and poly (AAm/NVI/PEG) hydrogels showed large extents of swelling in aqueous
media the swelling being highly dependent on the chemical composition of the hydrogels. Swelling ratio of poly (AAm/NVI) hydrogels
and poly (AAm/NVI/PEG) hydrogels was shown 7.16–39.85. Diffusion behavior was investigated. Water diffusion into hydrogels
was found to be non-Fickian in character. This study has given the quantitative information on the swelling characteristic of poly (AAm/NVI) hydrogel
and semi-IPN’s as water absorbent in many potential applications. 相似文献
Summary: The swelling equilibrium of poly(acrylamide) [PAAm] and poly[acrylamide‐co‐(itaconic acid)] [P(AAm/IA)] hydrogels was studied as a function of temperature and IA content in aqueous solutions of surfactants: sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, anionic) and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HTAB, cationic). P(AAm/IA) hydrogels in water exhibited reentrant conformational transitions depending on temperature, whereas PAAm hydrogels were not affected with the change of temperature. The equilibrium‐volume‐swelling ratio of P(AAm/IA) hydrogels increased sharply in SDS solutions, with an increase of the mole percent of IA. However, in HTAB solution, the equilibrium‐volume‐swelling ratio of these hydrogels decreased with an increase of IA content.

This study examined the behaviors and mechanisms of chitosan (CS)-poly(acrylamide) (PAAM) full interpenetrating polymeric network (IPN) hydrogels as an adsorbent to remove EY-4GL and S-Blue textile dyes from an aqueous solution. CS-PAAM IPN hydrogels were prepared by acrylamide monomer polymerization in the presence of a natural polymer, e.g., chitosan. N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAM) and glutaraldehyde (GLA) were selected to cross-link PAAM and CS chains and a full-IPN structure formed simultaneously. Kinetic swelling studies of CS-PAAM IPNs were carried out with deionized water and aqueous dye solutions. The experimental data clearly suggested that the swelling process obeys second-order kinetics. Network and diffusion parameters for CS-PAAM and PAAM hydrogels were calculated and it was observed that these IPN hydrogels have high cross-linking efficiencies in comparison to PAAM hydrogels. Adsorption of textile dyes onto hydrogels was studied by a batch adsorption technique at 23°C and 40°C, and it was seen that the higher temperature increased the dye adsorption onto the hydrogels. L type (Lan gmuir) adsorption isotherms, according to Giles classification system, were established at the end of adsorption experiments. The prepared IPN hydrogels show good ability to uptake textile dyes from wastewater. 相似文献
Water uptake and the sorption properties of polyelectrolyte hydrogels made by the polymerization of acrylamide (AAm) with maleic acid (MA) were investigated as a function of composition to find materials with swelling and dye sorption properties. Highly swollen acrylamide/maleic acid (AAm/MA) hydrogels were prepared by free radical solution polymerization in aqueous solutions of AAm with MA as comonomer and two multifunctional cross-linkers such as trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate (BDMA). Swelling experiments were performed in water at 25°C, gravimetrically. Chemically cross-linked AAm/MA hydrogels were used in experiments on sorption of water-soluble monovalent cationic dyes such as “Nil blue” (NB) and “Methyl violet (MV)”. Weight-swelling ratio values of AAm/MA hydrogels were calculated range 8.88–61.46. Some swelling kinetic parameters were found. Diffusion behavior of water and water sorption rate constant were investigated. Water diffusion into hydrogels was found to be non-Fickian in character. For sorption of cationic dyes, NB and MV into AAm/MA hydrogels were studied by batch sorption technique at 25°C. AAm/MA hydrogels in the dye solutions showed coloration. However, the AAm hydrogel did not show sorption of any dye from solution. The amount of the dye sorbed per unit mass of AAm/MA hydrogels was investigated. 相似文献
Here, a novel ternary semi interpenetrating polymer networks (semi IPNs) have been synthesized. An effective role to develop
mechanically strong polymeric materials has been through the preparation of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs). The
highly swelling superabsorbent semi IPNs were prepared by introducing poly(ethylene glycol), (PEG) into an acrylamide/sodium
acrylate, (AAm/SA) hydrogels. For swelling characterization, swelling experiments were performed in water at 25 °C, gravimetrically.
Water uptake and dye sorption properties of AAm/SA hydrogels and AAm/SA/PEG semi IPNs were investigated as a function of chemical
composition of the hydrogels. AAm/SA hydrogels and AAm/SA/PEG semi IPNs were used in experiments on sorption of water-soluble
cationic dye such as “Janus Green B” (JGB). For sorption of JGB into AAm/SA hydrogels and AAm/SA/PEG semi IPNs were studied by batch sorption technique at 25 °C.
For the analysis of sorption mechanism and for calculation of some binding parameters of JGB from aqueous solutions, some
linearization methods such as Klotz, Scatchard, and Langmuir linearization methods have been used. 相似文献
Gelatin (GEL) and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) hydrogels were prepared for cationic dye sorption. Chemically cross-linked copolymer of acrylamide/sodium acrylate (AAm/SA) with PVA and/or GEL were prepared by polymerization of aqueous solution of AAm, and SA using ammonium persulphate/N,N,N’,N’-tetramethylethylenediamine as redox initiating pair in presence of poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate as cross-linker. FTIR analysis was used for structural characterization. Surface morphology was characterized by SEM. Methyl violet has been used in sorption studies. Water uptake, and dye sorption properties of the cross-linked polymeric systems were investigated as a function of chemical composition of the hydrogels. 相似文献
