## Abstract This study investigated the effects of poly(ethylene glycol) monoacrylate (PEGMA) on the properties of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA)β__co__βPEGMA hydrogel networks. The PEGMA materials utilized were similar to ligandβlinked materials typically copolymerized with PEGDA for use
## Abstract The viscosity and elastic and viscous moduli of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogels and human abdominal adipose tissue are measured as a function of shear rate and frequency. Results indicate that both materials exhibit shear thinning and are viscoelastic in nature. Rheol
Poly(ester-ether-ester) triblock copolymers composed of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and lactones, o,L-lactide or e-caprolactone, were crosslinked with/3-chitin to prepare semi-interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogels by the u.v. irradiation method. Triblock copolymers were synthesized by bul
