Quaternized Chitosan/Poly(acrylic acid) Polyelectrolyte Complex Hydrogels with Tough, Self-Recovery, and Tunable Mechanical Properties
Abstract
Quaternized chitosan (QCh) was homogeneously synthesized by reacting chitosan with 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (CHPTAC) in alkali/urea aqueous solution for the first time. The structure and solution properties of QCh were characterized by using element analysis, FT-IR, 13C NMR, SEC-LLS, rheology, viscometer, and ξ-potential measurements. Subsequently, polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) hydrogels were constructed by in situ...
