Abstract	In the present work, a series of cross-linked LVCS/PVA hydrogels with various feed compositions were prepared using glutaraldehyde as cross-linking agent. The prepared hydrogels were used for dynamic and equilibrium swelling studies. The swelling behavior of these hydrogels was investigated as functions of effect of pH, polymeric compositions and degree of cross-linking. Swelling studies were performed in 0.05 M USP phosphate buffer solutions of varying pH 1.2, 5.5, 6.5 and 7.5. Results showed that swelling increased by increasing PVA contents in the structure of hydrogels in solutions of higher pH values. This is due to the presence of more hydroxyl groups (–OH) in the PVA structure. On the other hand, by increasing LVCS contents, swelling increased in a solution of acidic pH and it is due to ionization of amino groups (–NH2), but this swelling was not significant. Swelling of hydrogels was decreased with increase in cross-linking ratio due to tighter hydrogel structure. Porosity and sol–gel fraction were also investigated. It was found that with increase in LVCS and PVA contents porosity and gel fraction increased, whereas by increasing glutaraldehyde content gel fraction increased and porosity decreased. Diffusion coefficient (D) and network parameters, i.e., the average molecular weight between cross-links (M C), solvent interaction parameters (χ), polymer volume fraction in swollen state (V 2S) and cross-linked density (q) were calculated using Flory–Rehner theory. Selected samples were loaded with model drug diphenhydramine HCl. The release of diphenhydramine HCl was studied for 12 h period in 0.05 M USP phosphate buffer solutions of varying pH 1.2, 5.5 and 7.5. It was observed that drug release increased with increasing PVA contents in the hydrogels, while release of drug decreased as the ratio of cross-linking agent increased in the hydrogel structure owing to strong physical entanglements between polymers. The release mechanisms were studied by fitting experimental data to model equations like zero order, first order, Higuchi and Peppas. Results showed that the kinetics of drug release from hydrogels in buffer solutions of pH 1.2, 5.5 and 7.5 was mainly non-fickian diffusion. Hydrogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared and X-ray diffraction to confirm the structure and study the crystallinity of hydrogel, respectively.
