## Abstract **Summary:** A series of semi‐interpenetrating, polymer network (semi‐IPN), hydrogel beads, composed of calcium alginate (Ca‐alginate) and poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM), were prepared for a pH/temperature‐sensitive drug delivery study. The equilibrium swelling showed the ind
## Abstract A pH sensitive hydrogel was obtained by __γ__‐ray radiation polymerization of AAc in aqueous solution. The temperature sensitive monomer NIPAAm or the same pH sensitive AAc monomer was then grafted to the PAAc hydrogel with gamma radiation. The comb‐type graft polymers obtained __net__‐
