Abstract

ABSTRACT We report development of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)‐based novel injectable hydrogel nanocomposite scaffolds. Nanocellulose (NC), synthesized from agricultural biomass, was used as reinforcement within PVA matrix. The hydrogels were formed using physical crosslinking process involving multiple freeze–thaw cycles. A range of bio‐nanocomposite hydrogels were prepared with varying concentrations of NC. With increasing loading of NC, crystallinity was found to be increased, which could be attributed to nucleating effect and crystalline nature of nanofibrillar cellulose. Investigation of microstructural surface topology indicated reduced surface perturbations upon incorporation of NC. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies further indicated presence of characteristic functional groups and possible interactions between PVA and NC. Enhanced structural integrity and dynamic stability of the bio‐nanocomposite hydrogels were also confirmed by carrying out rheological investigations at different frequency, amplitude, temperature, and time sweeps. Further, the bio‐nanocomposite hydrogels demonstrated excellent injectability and self‐standing behavior, establishing the promising potential as injectable scaffolds. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.
