Temperature‐responsive alginate‐g‐poly(N,N‐diethylacrylamide) copolymer: Synthesis, characterization, and swelling behavior

Abstract: Temperature‐responsive polymers have recently gained importance due to their applications in drug delivery. Herein, temperature‐responsive graft copolymer (Alg‐g‐PDEAAm) of alginate and N,N‐diethylacrylamide was synthesized by microwave‐assisted copolymerization using potassium persulfate/N,N,N′,N′‐tetramethylethylenediamine initiator system. The reaction conditions for the best grafting (331%) have been optimized by changing microwave irradiation time, temperature, N,N‐diethylacrylamide, and alginate concentr… Show more

“…The PNIPAAm polymer showed a two-stage degradation profile at 98 and 408 °C. [14,15] The reduction in mass until 98 °C corresponded to the evaporation of the water molecules and beyond 408 °C was indicative of decomposition. The NaAlg also exhibited multistage degradation.…”

“…Copolymerization also plays an important role in biocompatibility and biodegradability, which are essential in targeted tissue engineering and biomaterials related applications. [12][13][14][15][16] Sodium alginate (NaAlg) is a natural polysaccharide that is extracted from brown seaweeds. [10] Alginic acid is an anionic biopolymer consisting of linear chains of α-l-glucuronic acid and β-d-mannuronic acid with properties such as a high degree of aqueous solubility, a tendency for gelation when reacted with divalent cations-the resulting gels demonstrating high porosity, biocompatibility, and nontoxicity.…”

“…3 A large number of biopolymers have been grafted with monomers to create pH-sensitive hydrogel matrices. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] However, the choice of biopolymer as base matrix has a significant impact in terms of its physical characteristics and its impact on the grafting process. TG is one such biopolymer with a complex structure and may offer interesting features for creating graft copolymers for targeted drug delivery.…”

“…27,28 This has attracted polymer scientists to develop polymers with carboxyl functionality for bonding with various other moieties. 10,11,13,21,29 Our recent studies on the grafting of IA on TG were undertaken using microwave initiation leading to relatively high graft levels for controlled drug delivery. 26,30 However, it seems that the microwave approach may not be attractive enough for the formulation of pH-sensitive smart materials as evident from the outcome of drug release at a pH of 2.5 and 7.4.…”
