Hydrogels Prepared from Unsubstituted Cellulose in NaOH/Urea Aqueous Solution

Zhou, Jinping, Chang, Chunyu, Zhang, Ruping, Zhang, Lina·2007·Macromolecular Bioscience

Abstract

Novel cellulose hydrogels were synthesized through a “one‐step” method from cellulose, which was dissolved directly in NaOH/urea aqueous solution, by using epichlorohydrin as crosslinker. Structure and properties of the hydrogels were characterized by using SEM, NMR, and water absorption testing. The hydrogels are fully transparent and display macroporous inner structure. The equilibrium swelling ratios of the hydrogels in distilled water at 25 °C are in the range from 30 to 60 g H 2 O/g dry hydrogel. Moreover, the reswelling water uptake of the hydrogels could be achieved to more than 70% compared with their initial swelling states. This work provided a simple and fast method for preparing eco‐friendly hydrogels from unsubstituted cellulose. magnified image

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.
