Problems solved by technology

The two major disadvantages of hydrogels determine that they are not easy to be modified by physical methods.
[0006] However, in the prior art, the hydrogel prepared by the chemical modification method usually has the technical defects of low water absorption and difficult processing, and it is necessary to further improve the performance of the hydrogel.

Abstract

The invention discloses aquagel with high water absorbing capacity. The aquagel is prepared from the following raw materials in percentage by weight: 4-12 percent of polyvinyl alcohol, 70-90 percent of water, 5-20 percent of water-soluble monomers, 0.04-0.4 percent of an initiator and 0.03-0.3 percent of a crosslinking agent. The aquagel with high water absorbing capacity has the appearance characteristics of colorlessness and transparency, has high water absorbing capacity, and is easy for film forming. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the aquagel with high water absorbing capacity. The method comprises the following steps of: dissolving polyvinyl alcohol into a part of water under the conditions of mechanical stirring and nitrogen protection; adding a first water-soluble monomer and a part of the initiator; reacting at the temperature of 70-80 DEG C for 1-2 hours; adding the remaining water, a second water-soluble monomer, the remaining initiator and the crosslinking agent; polymerizing for 2-4 hours, and raising the temperature to 85-95 DEG C; and preserving heat for 0.5-1.5 hours, and cooling to the room temperature to obtain aquagel with high water absorbing capacity. The aquagel has the advantages of high operability, high controllability, easiness for industrial implementation, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of synthesis and modification of polymers, in particular to a hydrogel with high water absorption rate and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Hydrogel is a hydrophilic cross-linked polymer with a three-dimensional network structure that can swell in water, absorb and retain a large amount of water without dissolving in water. Hydrogels have a relatively fixed shape, and although the water molecules inside are bound in the gel network, they still have certain mobility. The special structure of the hydrogel system is similar to the structure of organisms, so it has the behavior similar to biological systems. Hydrogel has good biocompatibility, and has only weak interaction with immobilized enzymes or cells, which can keep biomolecules immobilized in hydrogel active for a long time. Due to the unique physical and chemical properties of hydrogels, they are widely used in food processing and pres...
