Swelling Studies of Porous and Nonporous Semi-IPN Hydrogels for Sensor and Actuator Applications

In this article, we present a semi-interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel of reasonable size with improved swelling behavior. The semi-IPN is composed of <i>N</i>-isopropylacrylamide and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid. Porosity was generated chemically by a surfactant-base...
