Six hydrogels were produced by composing chitosan and gelatine with poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate, 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-propiophenone and (NH₄)S₂O₈ under UV or microwave irradn. and studied for swelling, surface structure and wettability. The UV irradn. yielded products of higher applicability than the microwave one.

Chitosan based hydrogels due to their specific properties and structure belong to the group of materials widely used in medicine. They are used as drug carriers with controlled release of active substances and in the preparation of innovative wound dressings. The main aim of the conducted research was the choice of the most favorable parameters for carrying the cross-linking reaction by means of UV radiation and microwaves. Subsequently, an adequate composition of the mixture containing chitosan and gelatin for further modification of such prepared the polymer matrix with Aloe vera extract was selected. Subsequently, an impact of introduction of Aloe vera extract into hydrogel on its physicochemical properties and structure was determined. The scope of the research included the measurement of swelling abilities of hydrogels in distilled water and selected simulated body fluids as well as incubation studies aimed at determination of tendency of prepared materials to degradation in previously mentioned fluids and their compatibility in relation to such environments. In order to characterize the chemical structure of the polymers and impact of incubation on this structure spectroscopic analysis was performed. Microscopic analysis was used to define the surface morphology of the hydrogels. Moreover, materials containing Aloe vera extract were subjected to the studies of release of additive from hydrogel matrix. Research was conducted both in acid and alkaline environment.

Recently, trehalose becomes more and more popular compound. Increasing interest in this disaccharide results from the role as it starts to play in water economy of plants. In conditions of water shortage mentioned organic substance prevents their dehydration. Therefore, application of such interesting additive can contribute to the preparation of materials that can be applied in such areas as agriculture or cultivation of plants. It is also worth mentioning that properties of trehalose make this substance interesting from the medical point of view. Presented additive can have an impact on maintaining organs for transplantation in good condition. In presented research series of polymer superabsorbents modified with described disaccharide have been prepared. Obtained by means of photopolymerization materials differed in an amount of the additive. In the further step, physicochemical properties of superabsorbents have been determined. Following studies have been carried out: swelling studies and incubation studies in simulated body fluids aimed at determination of behavior of prepared materials in solutions similar to those one occurring in human body. Additionally, chemical structure of the hydrogels have been defined using spectroscopic technique. Based on the research it can be concluded that proposed materials are characterized by low sorption capacity and did not have significant impact on simulated body fluids. What is more, prepared hydrogels did not degrade significantly in the mentioned fluids - such conclusion is possible due to the fact that spectra of the tested materials before and after incubation studies obtained using FT-IR spectroscopy differed slightly from each other. Presented superabsorbents seem to be interesting materials that can be subjected to more advanced studies in view of their future medical application.

Titanium compounds in view of their physicochemical properties constitute interesting materials applied in chemical synthesis. They are used for preparation of antifungal agents as well as for production of self-cleaning coatings. Moreover, mentioned inorganic compounds are characterized by a capability of neutralizing of unpleasant odor. Those all characteristics make these substances useful in many fields. In the framework of presented research series of polymer materials modified with titanium and titanium oxide have been obtained by means of photopolymerization. In the further step, studies on such synthesized materials have been conducted with particular emphasis on determining a mechanical properties and wettability. Hardness of prepared polymers have been tested by means of Shore durometer. Based on the research it can be concluded that addition of titanium compounds to the polymer matrix resulted in the improvement of mechanical properties as well as in an increase of hydrophobicity. It is worth mentioning that it is possible to manipulate properties of the obtained compositions by the introduction of an appropriate amount of additive into their matrices.

Hydrożele są materiałami zbudowanymi z łańcuchów polimerowych, które tworzą trójwymiarową i usieciowaną strukturę. Mają one bardzo dużą zdolność do pochłaniania wody, stąd też bardzo często są nazywane superabsorbentami. Inne cechy charakteryzujące hydrożele to elastyczność oraz nietoksyczność. Poprzez swoje właściwości hydrożele są często stosowane w inżynierii tkankowej, układach dostarczania leku czy w opatrunkach hydrożelowych. Celem pracy była ocena wpływu modyfikacji matrycy polimerowej kofeiną na właściwości i strukturę hydrożeli, natomiast zakres pracy obejmował syntezę i modyfikację matrycy polimerowej oraz badania inkubacyjne in vitro, spektroskopowe i fizykochemiczne. W pracy zostały przeprowadzone i omówione badania hydrożeli modyfikowanych różną zawartością kofeiny. Hydrożele zostały poddane badaniom sprawdzającym ich zdolność absorpcyjną w roztworach składem przypominającym płyny ustrojowe organizmu ludzkiego. Przeprowadzono również badania zachowania się hydrożeli w płynach ustrojowych jakimi były woda destylowana, płyn Ringera i sztuczna ślina. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań można wstępnie stwierdzić, że otrzymane materiały nie powodują zmian pH roztworów, w których są inkubowane. Ponadto, uwalniają one wprowadzoną do ich struktury kofeinę. Tak otrzymane wyniki, pozwalają stwierdzić, że materiał otrzymany przy pomocy fotopolimeryzacji na bazie kwasu akrylowego może znaleźć zastosowanie w takich dziedzinach jak medycyna czy kosmetologia.

Hydrogels are materials created by polymer chains, that form a three-dimensional and crosslinked structure. These polymers are characterized by a very high sorption capacity, therefore they belong to the group of substances known as superabsorbents. Due to their properties hydrogels are often used in tissue engineering, drug delivery systems and as components of modern wound dressings. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of introduction of caffeine into the polymer matrix on the properties and structure of hydrogels. The scope of work included the synthesis and modification of the polymer matrix as well as studies on such prepared materials. Research involved in vitro incubation, spectroscopic analysis, studies on degradation and characterization of other physico-chemical properties. In this article series of hydrogels based on acrylic acid and modified with different amount of caffeine have been synthesized. The sorption capacity of obtained hydrogels in the liquids with compositions similar to the human body fluids has been tested. The stability of synthesized materials in simulated body fluids such as Ringer’s solution and artificial saliva has also been analysed. Based on conducted research it can be said that prepared materials do not change pH value of a liquid in which they are immersed. What is more, they are able to release entrapped caffeine. On the basis of such results it can be concluded that proposed acrylic acid based materials obtained by means of photopolymerization can be used in such areas as medicine or cosmetology.
