In this study, a series of highly swelling hydrogels based on sodium alginate (NaAlg) and polymethacrylamide (PMAM) was prepared through free radical polymerization. The graft copolymerization reaction was performed in a homogeneous medium and in the presence of ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker. The crosslinked graft copolymer, alginate-graft-polymethacrylamide (Alg-gPMAM), was then partially hydrolyzed by NaOH solution to yield a hydrogel, hydrolyzed alginate-graft-polymethacrylamide (H-Alg-g-PMAM). During alkaline hydrolysis, the carboxamide groups of Alg-g-PMAM were converted into hydrophilic carboxylate anions. Either the Alg-g-PMAM or the H-Alg-g-PMAM was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. The effects of the grafting variables (i.e., concentration of MBA, MAM, and APS) and the alkaline hydrolysis conditions (i.e., NaOH concentration, hydrolysis time, and temperature) were optimized systematically to achieve a hydrogel having the maximum swelling capacity. Measurements of the absorbency in various aqueous salt solutions indicated that the swelling capacity decreased upon increasing the ionic strength of the swelling medium. This behavior could be attributed to a charge screening effect for monovalent cations, as well as ionic cross-linking for multivalent cations. Because of the high swelling capacity in salt solutions, however, the hydrogels might be considered as anti-salt superabsorbents. The swelling behavior of the superabsorbing hydrogels was also measured in solutions having values of pH ranging from 1 to 13. Furthermore, the pH reversibility and on/off switching behavior, measured at pH 2.0 and 8.0, suggested that the synthesized hydrogels were excellent candidates for the controlled delivery of bioactive agents. Finally, we performed preliminary investigations of the swelling kinetics of the synthesized hydrogels at various particle sizes.

Ib the best of our knowledge based on a precise survey of the Chemical Abstracts, no report was found on the preparation of a superabsorbing hydrogel through alkaline hydrolysis of Alg-graft-polymethacrylamide(PMAM) (Alg-g-PMAM). Hence, the objectives of this study were to synthesis and investigate pH-sensitive swelling behavior of a superabsorbent hydrogel made of sodium alginate (NaAlg) and PMAM.
In this work, we prepared a novel superabsorbent hydrogel, H-Alg-g-PMAM, by graft copolymerization of MAM onto Alg backbones followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the graft copolymer, Alg-g-PMAM. The synthesis of superabsorbent hydrogel was optimized by varying the reaction parameters affecting the ultimate swelling capacity of the final product.
Optimization of the Reactions Variables. The factors affecting the grafting conditions (i.e. concentration of MBA, MAM, and APS) and the alkaline variables (i.e. concentration of NaOH and hydrolysis time and temperature) as well as the swelling behavior of the resulted pH-responsive superabsorbent hydrogels were investigated.
