| Abstract | Macroporous viscoelastic poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) cryogels were prepared from aqueous PVA solutions containing additives (0–1.2 mol/l) of alkali metal chlorides (LiCl, NaCl, KCl, CsCl) by cryogenic treatment (freezing at −20°C for 12 h and subsequent thawing at a rate of 0.03°C/min). Shear moduli and fusion temperatures of corresponding samples were determined and the structure of thin sections was studied by optical microscopy with subsequent processing and analysis of images obtained. It was shown that the rigidity, heat endurance, and mean pore sizes of formed cryogels monotonically decrease with increasing content of chaotropic lithium chloride. In the case of other three salts, the dependences of rheological characteristics of cryogels on the concentration of low-molecular-weight electrolyte were extreme due to the competition between factors that promote and prevent PVA cryotropic gelation. At the same time, fusion temperatures of gel samples increased steadily with increasing content of these salts. Microscopic studies revealed substantial (by factor of two to three) decrease in macropore sizes even at low content of salt compared to mean cross sections of pores in cryogel containing no additive; morphometric analysis of obtained images makes it possible to reveal the linear correlations between the rheological characteristics of cryogels formed in the presence of LiCl and the sizes of their macropores. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
