Differential scanning calorimetry of crystallized PVA hydrogels
Abstract
Crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels produced via electron beam irradiation of aqueous PVA solutions were crystallized via a two-stage dehydration-annealing process to produce swollen hydrogels of varying degrees of crystallinity. Evaluation of the degree of crystallinity of these hydrogels was done by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. The swollen hydrogels had degrees of crystallinities varying between 30% and 50% depending on the temperature–time history of the specimens.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
