Methods for Synthesis of Hydrogel Networks: A Review
Abstract
Hydrogels are macromolecular networks that swell, but do not dissolve, in water. The ability of hydrogels to absorb water arises from hydrophilic functional groups attached to the polymeric backbone, while their resistance to dissolution arises from crosslinks between network chains. Many materials, both naturally occurring and synthetic, fit the definition of hydrogels. Crosslinked dextrans and collagens are examples of natural polymers that are modified to produce hydrogels. Classes of synthetic hydrogels include poly(hydroxyalkyl methacrylates), poly(acrylamide), poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone), poly(acry1ic acid), and poly(vinyl alcohol).

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.
