Swelling behavior of hydroxyapatite‐filled chitosan–poly(acrylic acid) polyelectrolyte complexes

A family of hydroxyapatite (HAP)‐filled chitosan (CHI)–poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) polyelectrolyte complexes was prepared for the development of a degradable biocompatible organic matrix with nascent HAP that will degrade in vivo over a period of time. The effects of complexation on the degradation profile of the composites as well as the interaction between the CHI–PAA matrix and HAP in the composite system were evaluated by studying the swelling behavior of these composites in phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) by varying their CHI–PAA ratio and HAP content. All composite systems showed a general trend of three stages of swelling with the variation in the degree of equilibrium swelling. The percentage weight gain initially decreased in a linear way with increases in the HAP weight percentages, leading to a first equilibrium swelling, represented by the plateau; further increased to a greater extent; and finally stabilized. The CHI/PAA/HAP composites were stable in PBS up to a period of more than 45 days whereas the 50/50 CHI/PAA control sample showed a single equilibrium attained after a period of 288 h. Further exposure of the specimen to the medium led to its disintegration. It was also observed that, even though CHI and PAA were capable of binding HAP, because of the lack of efficient binding, the integrity of the CHI–HAP and PAA–HAP composites were lost within 48 h. The 50/50/80 CHI/PAA/HAP composition showed the minimum amount of swelling in the series. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 100: 4716–4722, 2006

Insolubilization of sodium chondroitin sulfate by forming a semi‐interpenetrating polymer network with acrylic acid: A potential carrier for colon‐specific drug delivery

To reduce the highly hydrophilic property of chondroitin sulfate (ChS), a semi‐interpenetrating polymer network (semi‐IPN) of chondroitin sulfate/polyacrylic acid (PAA) was prepared as a drug carrier by crosslinking acrylic acid with diethyleneglycol diacrylate. The swelling properties of the semi‐IPNs with different concentrations of crosslinking agent were correlated. The moisture sorption profiles were evaluated using differential thermal analysis. Ketoprofen was used as a drug probe to evaluate the performance of the drug released from the semi‐IPN matrices. The prepared semi‐IPNs demonstrated significant swelling reduction properties with both gastric and intestinal fluids compared with those of both the pure ChS and the ChSAA blend without the crosslinking agent. The amount of accumulated drug released from the semi‐IPNs was less than 30 wt % at pH 1.2 and up to 80 wt % at pH 7.4. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 85: 114–122, 2002

Diffusion of two associated solvents in various compositions through a swelling polymer material,EVAc

The particular sorption by a swelling polymer with the transfer of hydrocarbons was studied in order to evaluate some barrier properties of this material. The transfer of two types of solvents through two varieties of ethylene vinyl acetate was investigated: absorption of pure toluene and pure n‐hexane and absorption of a toluene/hexane mixture in various compositions. A comparison between the two processes showed that these transfers were very different and depended on two factors: vinyl acetate content and composition of the mixture. The kinetics of absorption were calculated for various compositions. The profiles of concentration as well as the kinetics of swelling were evaluated using a numerical model deduced from the general theory of radial diffusion of a substance with change in dimensions. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Relation of swelling and Tg depression to the apparent free volume of a particle‐filled,epoxy‐based adhesive

The effect of hygrothermal aging on a particle‐filled, epoxy‐based adhesive was studied using a gravimetric sorption technique. This study has explored moisture sorption characteristics as well as the associated behaviors of swelling and the depression of the glass transition temperature (T_g). We observed that the diffusion of water in this adhesive has a non‐Fickian behavior, and the depression of T_g proceeds to a definite value that is independent of the final equilibrium water content of the system. Our observations suggest that water diffuses into the polymer in a dual‐sorption mode, in which water resides in two populations. In one population, water is considered to occupy apparent free volume of the adhesive, and the second population water infiltrates polymer structure and forms hydrogen‐bonded clusters. Our results show that hygrothermal aging temperature and swelling do not alter the apparent free volume of this adhesive. We conclude that the constant value of T_g depression at saturation implies that only water in the apparent free volume is responsible for the T_g depression, whereas the swelling proceeds through the formation of hydrogen bonds in the adhesive. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Fast online acquisition and analysis for parison swell and sag in blow molding

It is critical to quantitatively and reliably characterize the effects of swell and sag phenomena on the final parison dimensions in extrusion blow molding. To achieve this goal, an online image acquisition and analysis technique was developed. The successive images of parison were automatically taken using the online acquisition apparatus. These images were then analyzed by the combined use of the conventional digital image processing method and the new one developed by the authors. So the development of parison diameter and thickness swells with the extrusion time could be determined online. On the basis of the online obtained actual swell values, the pure swell and sag components were quantitatively determined. The developed technique was tested through a series of experiments using several resins under different processing parameters and die types. Shown in the present article were the results for a converging die under three different die gaps and a high‐density polyethylene. Some new phenomena were observed using the proposed technique. The results showed that the technique yields fast and accurate determination of the evolution of diameter, thickness, and length of parison during its extrusion. The technique can be employed as a part of the closed loop control for blow molded part thickness. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 101: 2399–2406, 2006     

Determination of swelling behavior and morphological properties of poly(acrylamide‐co‐itaconic acid) and poly(acrylic acid‐co‐itaconic acid) copolymeric hydrogels

Poly(acrylamide‐co‐itaconic acid) (PAAmIA) and poly(acrylic acid‐co‐itaconic acid) (PAAIA) copolymeric hydrogels were prepared with different compositions via free‐radical polymerization. Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) was used as an original crosslinker for these monomers. Gelation percentages of the monomers were studied in detail and it was found that addition of IA into the monomer mixture decreased the gelation percentage. The variation in swelling values (%) with time, temperature, and pH was determined for all hydrogels. PAA, which is the most swollen hydrogel, has the swelling percentage value of 2000% at pH = 7.4, 37°C. Swelling behaviors were explained with detailed SEM micrographs, which show the morphologic differences between dry and swollen hydrogels. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Oil absorbents based on styrene–butadiene rubber

Four oil absorbents based on styrene–butadiene (SBR)—pure SBR (PS), 4‐tert‐butylstyrene–SBR (PBS), EPDM–SBR network (PES), and 4‐tert‐butylstyrene‐EPDM‐SBR (PBES)—were produced from crosslinking polymerization of uncured styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR), 4‐tert‐butylstyrene (tBS), and ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer (EPDM). The reaction took place in toluene using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator. Uncured SBR was used as both a prepolymer and a crosslink agent in this work, and the crosslinked polymer was identified by IR spectroscopy. The oil absorbency of the crosslinked polymer was evaluated with ASTM method F726‐81. The order of maximum oil absorbency was PBES > PBS > PES > PS. The maximum values of oil absorbency of PBES and PBS were 74.0 and 69.5 g/g, respectively. Gel fractions and swelling kinetic constants, however, had opposite sequences. The swelling kinetic constant of PS evaluated by an experimental equation was 49.97 × 10^?2 h^?1. The gel strength parameter, S, the relaxation exponent, n, and the fractal dimension, d_f, of the crosslinked polymer at the pseudo‐critical gel state were determined from oscillatory shear measurements by a dynamic rheometer. The morphologies and light resistance properties of the crosslinked polymers were observed, respectively, with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a color difference meter.
