| Abstract [eng] |
One of the most perspective biopolymers is chitosan (CS), because it is biodegradable, biocompatible, inexpensive and also antimicrobial. Moreover, due to the structure and reactive groups its macromolecules can be easily modified via grafting reactions. N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) is one of the most perspective acrylic monomers that can be grafted on chitosan backbone, perhaps due to its thermoresponsive behavior and promising applications in the area of advanced materials, especially in the biomedical field including drug delivery systems [1] and tissue engineering [2]. The aim of the present work was to investigate thermoresponsive behavior of chitosan-graft-poly(Nisopropylacrylamide) (CS-g-PNIPAAm) copolymers in aqueous solutions. By changing the molar ratio of CS:NIPAAm from 1:0.25 to 1:10 the copolymers with different composition were prepared. Preparation of CSg- PNIPAAm has been achieved by using initiator potassium persulfate (PPS). [...]. |
