| Abstract | In this study, gel membranes of chitosan-g-poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (CS-g-PEGDMA) with pH sensitive properties were synthesized without employing any photo-initiator and crosslinker. First, CS was endowed with UV-sensitive property by reaction with cinnamoyl chloride in methanesulfonic acid. The reaction mainly occurred on the hydroxyl groups of the pyranose unit, while most C-2 amino groups were protected. The substitution degree of cinnamoyl group was 0.98, while the protection efficiency of –NH2 was about 80 %. Upon UV-irradiation, initial free radicals were produced only along the cinnamoyl-modified CS chains, which induced the grafting of PEGDMA from the chitosan chains and eventually the crosslinking. Increasing the feeding amount of PEGDMA increased the grafting ratio as well as the crosslinking density. The Tg value decreased from 161 °C for the pure chitosan to about 90 °C for the CS-g-PEGDMA with a grafting ratio of 1.29. Two stages of degradation correspondent to the individual degradation of CS chains and the PEGDMA chains were observed for all CS-g-PEGDMA copolymers, demonstrating their nature of graft copolymers. The tensile mechanical properties of the CS-g-PEGDMA membranes were affected by the two opposing factors: inter-connected soft PEGDMA chains and crosslinking density; and the optimum properties were achieved when the grafting ratio was increased to about 0.80. By combining CS and PEGDMA components, these copolymer membranes thus have the potential to be used as biomedical membranes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
