Hydrogel formation from a mixture of biocompatible chitosan, beta-glycerol phosphate, and hydroxyethyl cellulose was studied. The rheological properties of the formed hydrogels were examined using a Bohlin VOR rheometer. The effect of hydrogel composition and temperature on both the gelation rate an

## Abstract We developed and characterized a novel __in situ__ chitosan‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) hydrogel via two steps: 2‐carboxyethyl acrylate molecules were grafted to the primary amine functional groups in chitosan in the first step and then Michael type addition reaction was processed betwee

## Abstract In this work, a biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol)‐poly(ε‐caprolactone)‐poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG‐PCL‐PEG, PECE) triblock copolymer was successfully synthesized. The aqueous solution of such PECE copolymer displayed special sol–gel–sol transition as temperature increase, which is a f
