Synthesis of copolymer hydrogel P(Hema-MMA)

Abstract

In the field of biomedical application the biocompatible and biomedical materials are essential to develop the characterize the artificial materials which are spare parts for use in human body to measure, restore and improve physiologic function. The use of the polymer for medical application is determined by the chemical and physical properties if the polymeric materials and its stability of its life time depend on its chemical structure and conditions under which it is utilized. Hydrogels with tunable hydrophilic polymer and its mechanical properties were synthesized by the free radical polymerization of hydroxyethylmethacrylate with various co-monomers like methylmethacrylate. In this paper the resulting Hydrogels were investigated for their equilibrium water content, thermal stability and mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break and its hardness.
