Drug transport in stimuli responsive acrylic and methacrylic interpenetrating polymer networks

Abstract: The interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) are recently gaining attention as sustained drug delivery systems because they could ensure a proper combination of functionality and network density to control the drug release profiles. This study aims to reveal how the functionality of two IPNs based on polyacrylamide and respectively poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) influences their smart behavior as well as their properties as delivery systems of the cationic drug verapamil hydrochlori… Show more

“…This explanation is in line with the ζ potential measurements as well as with the microscopy and XRD analysis that revealed the lower DFS crystallinity in P3D compared to the other two PEC samples. Similar behavior was observed for hydrogel systems pairing anionic polymer matrix and cationic drug 32 …”

“…Fickian diffusion is observed when the rate of water molecules is slower than the rate of relaxation of the polymer chains, i.e., the polymer chains are very flexible and move faster as compared to water molecules. Therefore, the diffusion of water molecules into the PAAm single network is determined by their rate and is not influenced by the polymer chains, as the latter’s movements are much faster [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ].…”

“…The wide range of commercial applications of polymer microspheres has encouraged research in this field during the last decade. Polymer microspheres with optimized characteristics, such as uniform size and shape, functionality of the base polymer, morphology of the polymer particles and degree of crosslinking, are widely used as functional supports, for chromatographic separation, in biomedical devices, coating additives and controlled release reservoirs, among other areas [1][2][3][4] . Size, size distribution, chemical nature and functionality are important characteristics of spherical particles 5 .…”
