Formulation of hydrogel with synthetic polymers (PVA and PEG)

Synthetic polymer hydrogels constitute a group of materials, utilized as a part of various biomedical fields, and are as yet producing for new encouraging applications. Physically cross-linked synthetic polymers, PVA and PEG, hydrogels are excellent materials owing to their biological tissue like n...

Transparent PVA and PEG hydrogels with varying polymer concentrations were obtained by using freeze-thaw method. gel fraction and swelling behavior were investigated. The gel fraction decreases with an increase in PEG content while the swelling ratio increases.
