I've been working on a hydrogel that are used to release something that's only stable in a pH > 10. I'm looking at cyclodextrin-PEG based hydrogels, and I'm wondering if there's other candidates I can look for. Thanks!!
Dear all, the type of stability should be defined (chemical, thermal، mechanical,....). You are looking for alkaline hydrogels, if you search with this keyword you find various candidates, collagen is an exemple. My Regards
There are lot of hydrogels. The one combination on which we have worked is NIPAAM-N-Vinvyl Pyrollidone- Acrylic acid (NIPAAM-VP-AA) synthesized by free radical mechanism.
Dear Feichen Yang thank you for this interesting technical question. Please have a look at the following useful article which might help you in your analysis:
