Effect of drying method on mechanical, thermal and water absorption properties of enzymatically crosslinked gelatin hydrogels

ABSTRACT Enzymatically crossliked gelatin hydrogel was submitted to two different drying methods: air drying and freeze drying. The resulting polymeric tridimensional arrangement (compact or porous, respectively) led to different thermal and swelling properties. Significant differences (p < 0.05)...
