A novel hydrogel was synthesized through the graft copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AM) onto sodium alginate with ammonium persulfate as the initiator, methylene bisacrylamide as the crosslinking agent, and calcium chloride as the precipitating agent. Rapeseed meal biochar made at 300 °C was also used. A series of graft copolymers with various molar ratio of AA to AM was prepared. The structures of the hydrogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The free absorbency and rate of release were investigated. The grafting efficiency increased as the concentration of AM increased. There was a considerable percentage of nitrogen in the graft copolymers, and the release rate of nitrogen from fertilizer in soil and water decreased with increasing concentration of AM. The water retention of soil without hydrogel remained at 63 and 53.4% on the 10th and 20th days, but with the hydrogels, it was above 70% even on the last day. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

This work developed biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/polylactic acid (PBAT/PLA) composites with different fillers to improve their physicochemical properties and biodegradability. The films were tested considering mechanical, morphological, thermal, crystalline, biodegradability, and ecotoxicity tests. Mechanical and morphological results indicated that the fillers' nature influences mechanical performance; all composites showed high-tensile strength (~30 MPa) than the pristine films (~12 MPa). The use of both fillers resulted in an interface, improving the matrix compatibility, reflecting in good thermal performance, low-water absorption, and high hydrophobicity. The WA (water absorption) and hydrophobicity are essential to maintain the crop's moisture since the water lost through plant transpiration will be condensed and returned to the soil. Films showed biodegradability and absence of toxicity, which allows the substitution of polyethylene commodity films as mulching films. Biodegradation and ecotoxicity tests indicate that the developed films are beneficial for lettuce crops and contribute to the development of seedlings. 相似文献

An efficient and simple method for graft copolymerization of powdered chicken feather (CF) with vinyl monomers without any free radical initiator is reported. Various vinyl monomers such as glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), styrene (S), and methyl methacrylate (MMA); (20–60 wt % with respect to CF) were successfully grafted to chicken feather (CF) by using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, 0.086–0.5 mmol) in the absence of any catalyst or initiator. Most likely, the hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity, and complex forming properties of chicken feather keratin with surfactant molecules were responsible for efficient grafting of polymers on CF surface. The effect of polymerization conditions, such as monomer concentration, temperature, and time of reaction, on the grafting parameters such as monomer conversion, grafting efficiency, and molar grafting ratio were studied. The described method showed a good potential of using low cost, easily accessible poultry chicken feathers as grafting material and self catalyzing agent for graft copolymerization with vinyl monomers to produce low cost commodity plastic for various end uses. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro characteristics of poly(lactic acid‐co‐lysine) arginine–glycine–aspartic acid (PLA–PLL–RGD) nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with mitoxantrone. PLA–PLL–RGD NPs with a particle size of 200 nm were prepared with a modified emulsification solvent‐diffusion method. The encapsulation efficiency of the mitoxantrone‐loaded NPs was 85%. In vitro release experiments showed that the release of the drug was prolonged and sustained, and approximately 60.2% of the mitoxantrone was released in the first week. The released drug was integrated to achieve desired drug‐release profiles and still possessed bioactivity according to a 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyl‐2h‐tetrazolium bromide assay, which indicated that mitoxantrone‐loaded NPs were more cytotoxic against Michigan Cancer Foundation 7 (MCF‐7) breast cancer cells than mitoxantrone. Furthermore, the association processes of NPs with MCF‐7 cells, including binding and effective internalization, were investigated in vitro. The cellular uptake of the NPs was qualitatively studied with confocal laser scanning microscopy and was confirmed with flow cytometry analysis. These experimental results indicated that PLA–PLL–RGD NPs could be used as drug carriers for mitoxantrone. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011 相似文献

All‐trans‐retinoic acid (RA) was chemically conjugated to biodegradable poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL10; number‐average Mw ≈ 1250) via an ester linkage. The conjugation was carried out using N,N‐dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 4‐dimethyl aminopyridine as a coupling agent. The molar ratio of the drug to the polymer was 1.11 as determined by 1H‐NMR analysis. DSC and WAXD results showed that the formation of crystalline structures of RA was effectively suppressed by conjugation with PCL. The RA–PCL conjugates were formulated into nanoparticles by a spontaneous phase‐inversion technique. Morphological characteristics of the resultant nanoparticles and drug‐loading efficiencies were compared with those of free RA‐loaded nanoparticles. The drug‐loading efficiency of RA–PCL conjugates was almost 100%, while that of free RA was only ～12%. The majority of unconjugated RA was found to form undesirable free‐drug crystals out of nanoparticles, as observed by TEM analysis. This study demonstrates that the conjugation approach of RA to PCL can be an effective means to immobilize and encapsulate RA within nanoparticles for pharmaceutical applications. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Electrospun tissue engineering scaffolds provide mechanical support to seeded cells that populate the structure while depositing specific extracellular matrix components. The potent sterilizing agent 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (HFIP) is often used in electrospinning investigations involving biologically‐derived polymers. Surprisingly, there has been no study of solvent retention versus composition even though materials selection should influence organic solvent content. We developed a method quantifying HFIP retention following electrospinning of gelatin, polycaprolactone (PCL), and PCL‐gelatin blends using electro‐spray mass spectroscopy. The acetone content of acetone‐spun PCL was also established. Pure gelatin fiber contained as much as 1600 ppm of HFIP. In contrast, little acetone or HFIP was detected in 100% PCL. Gelatin clearly has a greater affinity for HFIP than PCL and materials selection has a strong influence on the amount of retained solvent. Vacuum + heat treatment at 37 and 45ºC reduced [HFIP] to 10 and 5.6 ppm, respectively, levels having no demonstrated effects on mammalian cell viability. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The bio-based environment-friendly functional polymers are the most desired materials for the society. Thus, a superabsorbent hydrogel (SAH) of starch-modified poly(acrylic acid) was reported and the concentrations of reactants, initiators, and crosslinkers were optimized to achieve the highest water absorption (>700 g/g). The chemical structure of SAH was supported by solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopic studies. The hydrogels were found to be biodegradable and possess high water absorption capacity. After the addition of 0.25% of the hydrogel, water-holding capacity of the soil was enhanced by 120%. Significant effect was also observed on bulk density and porosity of the soil after the addition of SAH. Furthermore, urea-encapsulated SAH can be used as a controlled release fertilizer for crops, as indicated by a preliminary study on the growth rate of chick pea (Cicer arietinum) plant. Thus, SAH has the potential to be used as a controlled-release carrier and water-conserving agent in different fields. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2020 , 137, 48495. 相似文献

We investigated different combinations of polymers (5% each) (i) starch, gelatin (polymer coating; PC-1), (ii) polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), gum Arabica (PC-2), (iii) PVA, gelatin (PC-3), (iv) starch, gum Arabica (PC-4), (v) gelatin, gum Arabica (PC-5), (vi) starch, PVA (PC-6), for coating NPK (17, 17:17) in a fluidized bed granulator. Morphological characterization indicated a uniform coating of all formulations on NPK granules. A slow release of N (PC-3), P (PC-6), and K (PC-3) was observed in water. In soil, high mineral N (63%), plant-available P (72%), and K (24%) were observed in PC-3, PC-5, and PC-6, respectively than uncoated fertilizer. Microbial biomass NPK was also higher in these treatment. This resulted in higher maize yield (66%), N (114%), P (164%), and K (137%) uptakes and apparent N (267%), P (196%), and K (358%) recoveries from applied fertilizer in these treatments. Among these, PC-3 resulted in an increase of 115% shoot N, 169% P and 138% K uptakes and 268% apparent N, 206% P and 361% K recoveries than uncoated fertilizer. Hence, coating of NPK with this biodegradable polymer combination controlled N, P, and K release and synchronized these nutrients availabilities with maize nutrients demand therefore resulted in higher maize crop yield and nutrient utilization efficiencies. 相似文献

Polylactide (PLA)/zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocomposite filaments were produced with a melt‐spinning process, with the aim of obtaining antibacterial textiles. ZnO, an inorganic antibacterial nanofiller, is used to impart antibacterial properties to PLA. These nanoparticles suit the melt‐spinning process because of their high thermal stability and low granulometry. Generally, metallic oxides (e.g., ZnO) are used to recycle PLA via catalyzed unzipping depolymerization. In this study, we used different ways to finely disperse ZnO in PLA and produce filaments with a minimum degradation of the thermal and mechanical properties. Optimized antibacterial properties were obtained with a fabric containing ZnO with specific surface treatments. The reasons for this better antibacterial activity, related to the study of the antibacterial mechanism of ZnO, were investigated with different characterization techniques [X‐ray, electron probe microanalysis, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)]. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ecological concerns over the accumulation of polymeric waste material and the demand for functionalized polymers in specialty applications have promoted extensive research on different controlled degradation processes and their use. The production of functionalized or modified polymers by conventional synthetic routes is expensive and time consuming. However, advances in degradation technology have become an enabling factor in the production of modified polymers and their functionalization. Mild irradiation, ozonization, and enzymatic routes are among the processes that have been explored for polymer modification. Biopolymers, such as chitosan, hyaluronic acids, and polyhydroxyalkanoates, are known to be suitable for a diverse number of applications, ranging from biomedical to organic‐electronics. At the same time, their high molecular weight, crystallinity, and shelf degradability limit their utility. Controlled degradation processes can be used to prepare these types of polymers with reasonably low molecular weights and to generate radical species that help to stabilize these polymers or to initiate further beneficial reactions. In this article, we review the application of controlled degradation processes for polymer modification and functionalization. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013 相似文献

Environmental pollution by heavy metals is currently a problem of great concern for human health. In this context, this study aims to contribute with the synthesis and characterization of chitosan functionalized with three different ionic liquids (n-butylammonium acetate, sec-butylammonium acetate, and tert-butylammonium acetate) followed by its application in hexavalent chromium effluent treatment. The adsorbents synthesized (ChN, ChS, and ChT) were characterized by SEM, EDS, FTIR, BET, RDD, PSD, and XRD techniques. Afterward, the influences of temperature, contact time, and pH on the Cr(VI) adsorption process were evaluated. The solution with pH 3 displayed the highest adsorption capacities (107.31, 104.60, and 107.97 mg.g-1 for ChN, ChS, and ChT, respectively). The kinetic data were better adjusted to the Weber-Morris kinetic model with an ideal time of 2 h. Furthermore, the influence of temperature was evaluated using the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms, with maximum capacities of 142.05 (ChN), 131.58 (ChS), and 146.63 mg.g-1 (ChT). The adsorbent displayed enhanced adsorption properties in comparison with raw chitosan by an intensification of the electrostatic interaction between amino groups and hexavalent chromium. Finally, the reusability was investigated, and significant results were observed (84.33 ± 4.87%) in the adsorption process after 4 cycles. 相似文献

Electrospinning can produce tissue‐engineering scaffolds possessing appropriate strength, biomimetic structure, economic appeal, and biocompatibility. To investigate how microstructural changes could potentially affect adherent mammalian cells, tensile samples were strained to 10, 40, and 80% extension, and adhered to double‐sided carbon tape to maintain specific states of strain. While establishing the stress–strain response, we invoked polymer sintering to help verify that the “point bonding” concept is more significant than previously realized at both the macroscopic and microscopic length scales. Sintering successfully established the effects of deliberate, extensive point bonding/localized “notch” generation on mechanical properties and microstructural response without requiring chemical changes within the structure. We also found that fibers experience significant hysteresis in terms of their orientation following exposure to high values of strain. Aligned fibers provide higher strengths (σave = 2.8 ± 0.3 MPa vs. σave = 1.29 ± 0.04 MPa for unaligned fibers) but considerably lower elongation [εave = (30 ± 2)% vs. εave = (102 ± 6)%]. Conversely, when strain occurs perpendicular to the aligned fiber direction total strain increases [εave = (188 ± 6)%] while strength decreases (σave = 0.38 ± 0.01 MPa). Elastic response to low strains appears to estimate ultimate tensile strength. In many ways, electrospun fibers behave similarly to classic interpretations of polymer chains in that when strained in both cases elements can rearrange and translate to align along the direction of loading. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Achieving water‐induced shape‐memory property in poly(D,L ‐lactide) (PDLLA), generated by means of advanced processing methods, opens possibilities to develop novel bioresorbable medical devices with shape‐memory properties activated by the human body without external heat. The main phenomena that affect the molecular movements that enable the water‐induced shape‐memory effect in an oriented PDLLA in an aqueous environment at physiological temperature are related to the water driven disruption of the intermolecular dipole‐dipole and/or hydrogen bonding of the oriented PDLLA chains and the subsequent decrease of the glass transition temperature (Tg) to the range of physiological temperature. The diffused water in the polymer matrix decreased the energy needed to finish the glass transition process explaining the higher shape‐recovery rate of the γ‐irradiated PDLLA with respect to the non‐γ‐irradiated PDLLA in an aqueous environment at physiological temperatures. The water‐induced decrease in the Tg was thermally reversible. The efficacy of the generated shape‐memory was tested with PDLLA shape‐memory nails in a pullout test, in which the pullout force of the PDLLA nails increased 360% during a seven day test period in vitro at 37°C. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nonwoven, biodegradable membranes fabricated by electrospinning have recently attracted a great deal of attention for biomedical applications. In this study, microporous, nonwoven membranes of poly(L ‐lactide) and its copolymers and blends were fabricated through electrospinning. The structures and morphologies of the electrospun membranes were investigated with scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X‐ray diffraction. Different polymer membranes, incorporated with carmofur, were fabricated, and their drug release profiles were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the fiber diameters were down to the nanometer range. The diameters and morphologies of thenanofibers depended on processing parameters such as the solution properties (concentration and polymer molecular weight), applied electric voltage, solution feeding rate, and needle diameter. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that the crystallinity of the electrospun membranes was lower than that of the cast film. For all the membranes incorporated with the drug, there was a burst release in the first 10 h of incubation in phosphate‐buffered saline at 37°C. Poly(glycolide‐co‐lactide) membranes showed faster and more complete drug release than poly(L ‐lactide), and this could be attributed to its faster degradation. The incorporation of polylactide–poly(ethylene glycol) could shorten the drug release time. A combination of suitable degradable biomaterials with an appropriate electrospinning process could be useful in the fabrication of a new kind of membrane suitable for different biomedical applications such as tissue engineering and drug delivery. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures are a much-commented injury as it can end the season or even career of professional athletes. However, the recovery of a patient from the general population is no less painful during the long period required by current treatments. Artificial ligaments could improve this healing, yet, orthopedic surgeons are still cautious about permanent ACL implants. Therefore, combining biodegradation and bioactivity could be a key feature for the popularization of these devices. This study aim at evaluating the real-time degradation of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) grafted with the bioactive polymer sodium polystyrene sulfonate in different scenarios. PCL physical–chemical properties were evaluated before and after degradation. In addition, in vitro experiments were realized to confirm the long term influence of the grafting on cell response. Altogether, we were able to show different degradations scenarios, enabling to study the impact of degradation environment on degradation mode and rate of functionalized PCL. 相似文献

Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)–starch composites were prepared by emulsion polymerization technique for L‐asparaginase (L‐ASNase) immobilization as highly activated support. The hydroxide groups on the prepared composites offer a very simple, mild and firm combination for enzyme immobilization. The pure PMMA and PMMA‐starch composites were characterized as structural, thermal and morphological. PMMA‐starch composites were found to have better thermal stability and more hydrophilic character than pure PMMA. L‐ASNase was immobilized onto PMMA‐starch composites contained the different ratio of starch (1, 3, 5, and 10 wt %). Immobilized L‐ASNase showed better performance as compared to the native enzyme in terms of thermal stability and pH. Km value of immobilized enzyme decreased approximately eightfold compared with the native enzyme. In addition to, immobilized L‐ASNase was found to retain 60% of activity after 1‐month storage period at 4 °C. Therefore, PMMA‐starch composites can be provided more advantageous in terms of enzymatic affinity, thermal, pH and storage stability as L‐ASNase immobilization matrix. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of oxygen‐based radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (rf PECVD) on the surface of poly(L ‐lactide) (PLLA) polymers and the influence thereof on protein adsorption and on bone–cell behavior have been studied. Thin films and porous scaffolds based on PLLA polymer were developed, and the role of surface modifications were investigated extensively. PECVD surface treatments were used to alter surface functionality and modulate protein adsorption on the PLLA polymer matrix. In particular, Bovine Serum Albumine fluorescein isothiocyanate (fitc‐BSA) conjugate adsorption on patterned surfaces of treated PLLA was analyzed by fluorescence microscopy. Human marrow stromal cells (MSCs) were cultured on scaffolds and cell adhesion and morphology were assessed using fluorescence microscopy. The results indicated that the PLLA surface became hydrophilic and its roughness increased with the treatment time and it had a dominant influence on the adsorption process of the protein. The outcome of the plasma treatment of various PLLA surfaces has been shown to be the up‐regulator of the cell‐adhesive proteins expression and consequently the improvement of cell adhesion and growth. Oxygen‐treated PLLA promoted higher adhesion and proliferation of the MSCs in comparison to the untreated samples. It can be concluded that following plasma treatment, PLLA samples show enhanced affinity for osteoprogenitor cells. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009 相似文献
