Influence of poly (Ethylene Glycol) on the characteristics of γ radiation-crosslinked poly (Vinyl Pyrrolidone)-low molecular weight chitosan network hydrogels

PEG at compositions of 10, 15 and 20 g were added into the initial formulation of hydrogel L, which was composed of 6 g low molecular weight chitosan (LMC) and 14 g poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) in 100 g of 2% lactic acid. The mixtures were moulded and exposed to γ radiation at 7 kGy. The hydrogels obtai...
