Abstract

Polimerni hidrogelovi napredni su polimerni materijali široko primjenjivi u suvremenom životu. Karakterizira ih niz odličnih svojstava koja im omogućuju raznoliku primjenu. Podložni su upijanju velikih količina vode, promjeni volumena prilikom induciranja vanjskog podražaja, imaju elastičnu prirodu, nisu toksični, a mnogi od njih su i biorazgradljivi. Njihova dobra čvrstoća rezultat je umrežene strukture koja može biti ostvarena fizikalnim ili kemijskim metodama umrežavanja. Ovisno o metodi pripreme, mogu im se mijenjati i optimizirati svojstva. Široku primjenu nalaze u različitim područjima, od industrije pa sve do medicine i farmacije. Ovaj rad daje literaturni pregled postupaka pripreme, svojstava i primjene polimernih hidrogelova.

Abstract (english)

Polymer hydrogels are advanced polymer materials widely used in modern life. They are characterized by numerous excellent properties that enable them to be used for different purposes. They absorb large amounts of water, change their volume when induced by an external stimulus, have an elastic nature, they are non-toxic and many of them are biodegradable. Their good strength is the result of a crosslinked structure that can be achieved by physical or chemical crosslinking methods. Depending on the preparation methods, their properties can be changed and optimized. They are widely used in various fields, from industry to medicine and pharmacy. This paper provides a literature review of the preparation procedures, properties and application of polymer hydrogels.
