Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) of molecular weight from 200,000 to 2,000,000 was crosslinked by exposure to ultraviolet radiation with a high-pressure 150 W mercury lamp. Photochemical crosslinking of PEO proceeds in the presence of photoinitiators such as benzophenone and acetophenone which act as a hy

## Abstract **Summary:** Hydrogels, the elastic chains of which are constituted of a short central poly(1,3‐dioxolane) (PDXL) block surrounded by two hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blocks, were obtained by free radical homopolymerization of __α__,__ω__–methacryloyloxy PEO‐__block__‐1,3‐PDXL
## Abstract **Summary:** Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was derivatized by polymer analogous reaction with thienyl acryloyl chloride and processed to submicrometer fibers by electrospinning from aqueous solution. Water solubility of otherwise water‐soluble PVA fibers was reduced considerably by UV cross
