Hi there, Have you ever worked with chitosan to make hydrogels? In combination or alone

[@polymerscope6881]

yes u can use chitosan. But it is not combine with alginate because their electronic properties. Chitosan is the cationic while alginate anionic.

sir please how much Bentonite have you added

[@polymerscope6881]

It is not necessary to use bentonite. if you use it it gets tough.

[@unnatimishra4826]

would you mind explaining the purpose of each added material to the hydrogel and what properties it contributes? i previously attempted making a hydrogel using na-alginate and a calcium chloride solution as the cross-linking agent, but it was flimsy. i'm interested in learning about how these added chemicals allowed this one to be as stretchy as it is

[@user-nj1lg7qz9f]

Can you please tell me which hydrogel should I prepare for the removal of drugs from wastewater?

[@polymerscope6881]

You can prepare anionic hydrogels for cationic substances. So with AAm you can use AMPS, VSA, AAc. You can use chitosan polymer composite with AAm for adsorption of anionic substance.

Hii, I wish to know about two things 1. Adding 15 grams of acrylamide wouldn't be toxic?? I mean will the bandage still remain biocompatible? 2. How can we reduce the stickyness of hydrogel?

[@polymerscope6881]

If your polymer fully pure, it is not toxic, or u can use other crosslinking method such as frezee thaw, gluteraldehyte., İf u use cacl2 or Bentonite clay, it will be stronger due to crosslinking alginate segments.

Hi, thanks for the video. I thought you would add also calcium chloride or calcium sulfate in order to crosslink the alginate as well and make a double network. Am I wrong? how does the presence or absence of an alginate crosslinker affect the properties of the gel? Thanks a lot in advance for your answer.

[@polymerscope6881]

Yes u can use Ca ions for physically crosslinking the alginate segment. Not only calcium but also other polyvalent cations can be used for physical crosslinking. In this video, bentonite clay containing polyvalent cations is used in its structure. This clay made the hydrogel harder.

[@salvadiomi]

Is it possible to start with polyacrylamide instead of its precursor?

[@ericblythe5393]

NO. The crosslinker is incorporated into the polymer chains through radical addition to carbon-carbon double bonds. You need active radical sites. And you can't add initiator again to start the reaction of crosslinker with polyacrylamide because there're too few carbon-carbon double bonds in polyacrylamide.
