Correlation between mesh size and equilibrium degree of swelling of polymeric networks
Abstract
A correlation is established between the mesh size of a swollen cross‐linked network and its equilibrium polymer volume fraction, for hydrogels isothermally swollen up to semidilute, dilute, or concentrated conditions. The exponent of this correlation decreases as the water concentration of the hydrogel decreases. Experimental results with hydrogels of poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(2‐hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) are used to verify the new scaling laws.

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.
