Article Synopsis
- A library of 32 poly(2-oxazoline)-based hydrogels was created, varying in composition and polymer lengths and made using a microwave reactor at 140 °C with short reaction times.
- These hydrogels achieved high yields (95%+) and had no residual monomers, with adjustable properties like acid-mediated hydrolysis rates and swelling degrees in different solvents.
- The hydrogels can incorporate organic molecules and release them in a controlled manner through either solvent changes or hydrogel degradation due to pH changes.
