Hallein, 23. August 2024 – Im ersten Quartal 2025 plant die AustroCel GmbH, eine der führenden Bioraffinerien Österreichs, mit der industriellen Produktion eines neuartigen Hydrogel-Granulats zu beginnen, dem im Kampf gegen die hitzebedingte Austrocknung von Böden große Bedeutung zukommen könnte.
What is a hydrogel polymer?
1. Introduction A hydrogel is a three-dimensional (3D) network of hydrophilic polymers that can swell in water and hold a large amount of water while maintaining the structure due to chemical or physical cross-linking of individual polymer chains. Hydrogels were first reported by Wichterle and Lím (1960) .
What is the storage modulus of a hydrogel?
The storage modulus of hydrogel increases with increasing polymer concentration. The hydrogel showed storage moduli of 200 and 400 Pa at 1.5% and 2% (w/v), respectively. Under these conditions, the loss modulus only increases from 12 to 18 Pa when increasing concentration.
What does hydrogel mean?
The name hydrogel consists of the words hydro and gel that translates to aqueous (water-containing) gels. Hydrogels are materials that have three-dimensional structure, which entrap a large amount of water. Hydrogels are polymeric and hydrophilic materials in which the amount of water is up to 90% (Barbucci, 2008).
What is the rheological behavior of a forming hydrogel?
The rheological behavior of the forming hydrogel is monitored as a function of time, following the shear storage modulus G′ and the loss modulus G'' (Fig. 1). The storage modulus G′ characterizes the elastic and the loss modulus G″ the viscous part of the viscoelastic behavior.
Who first discovered hydrogels?
Hydrogels were first reported by Wichterle and Lím (1960) . By definition, water must constitute at least 10% of the total weight (or volume) for a material to be a hydrogel. Hydrogels also possess a degree of flexibility very similar to natural tissue due to their significant water content.
What is hydrogel research?
The extent of hydrogel research is currently growing rapidly and creating more paths in different fields of advanced biomedical research like drug release systems, tissue engineering/regeneration, wound healing, sensor technologies and pharmacological applications.
