This invention belongs to the field of biomedical
polymer materials. Specifically, it relates to an injectable dual-network hydrogel, its preparation method, and its application in long-term prevention of postoperative
tissue adhesion. The hydrogel consists of two interpenetrating three-dimensional cross-linked networks: one is a polysiloxane network formed by the condensation
polymerization of γ-aminopropyltrialkoxysilane; the other is a
hyaluronic acid network formed by the cross-linking of thiolized
hyaluronic acid through dissolved
oxygen oxidation under the
catalysis of amino groups in the polysiloxane network. The two networks interpenetrate to form a stable three-dimensional cross-linked structure. Compared with existing anti-adhesion materials that struggle to balance
biocompatibility, wet
tissue adhesion, and long-term stability, the hydrogel of this invention exhibits good
biocompatibility, wet
tissue adhesion performance, a slow degradation rate, and injectability. It can be used as a medical barrier material for the prevention of postoperative tissue adhesion, especially suitable for long-term anti-adhesion applications after abdominal and pelvic surgeries.
