High strength graphene oxide/polyvinyl alcohol composite hydrogels
Abstract
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels have been proposed for use as promising biomaterials in biomedical and tissue engineering but their poor mechanical and water-retention properties have hindered their development. Graphene oxide (GO), an excellent nanofiller, was added to PVA to make GO/PVA composite hydrogels by a freeze/thaw method. The mechanical properties of the GO/PVA hydrogels were significantly improved. Compared to pure PVA hydrogels, a 132% increase in tensile strength and a 36% improvement of compressive strength were achieved with the addition of 0.8 wt% of GO, which suggests an excellent load transfer between the GO and the PVA matrix. The incorporation of certain amount of GO into composite hydrogels does not affect the toxicity of PVA to osteoblast cells.

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.
