✦ Synopsis

Acrylic monomers were graft copolymerized onto gelatin chains using potassium persulfate in aqueous medium. The graft copolymers were then treated with glutaraldehyde to establish crosslinks between gelatin macromolecules. This yielded a rigid water insoluble protein network sporting grafted chains at random. The chemistry of the acrylic monomer decided the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the ultimate product. This paper describes the preparation and properties of such grafted, crosslinked gelatins.

The present study was carried out in an attempt to make a gelatin film strongly bioadhesive by introducing free dangling aldehyde groups. When gelatin films were treated with 0.5M of glutaraldehyde (GA) solution at 60°C, free aldehyde groups (up to 150 mol/g) were introduced in the film. The bonding
