A mechanism for the synthesis of P（AM-co-AA） hydrogel was proposed. To optimize the synthesis condition, the following parameters were examined in detail： the discharge voltage, discharge time, the content of the crosslinker, and the mass ratio of AM to AA. The results showed that the optimum pH range for cationic dyes removal was found to be 5.0-10.0. The P（AM-co-AA） hydrogel exhibits a very high adsorption potential and the ex- perimental adsorption capacities for Crystal violet （CV） and Methylene blue （MB） were 2974.3 mg/g and 2303.6 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption process follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. In addition, the adsorption mechanism of P（AM-co-AA） hydrogel for cationic dyes was also discussed.展开更多
Various semi-interpenetrating polymer network（semi-IPN） hydrogels composed of pore-forming agent polyethylene glycol（PEG）, acrylic acid（AA） and acrylamide（AM） were prepared by using free radical polymerization...Various semi-interpenetrating polymer network（semi-IPN） hydrogels composed of pore-forming agent polyethylene glycol（PEG）, acrylic acid（AA） and acrylamide（AM） were prepared by using free radical polymerization with a two-step method. The chemical structures of the synthesized hydrogels were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and the morphologies were studied by scanning electron microscopy（SEM） method. The swelling properties, such as the p Hresponsive behavior, salt sensitivity, oscillatory swelling/de-swelling behaviors in different solutions with various p H values and self-oscillating behaviors in bath p H oscillator were investigated in detail. The results revealed that the prepared hydrogels exhibited high p H sensitivity and excellent salt sensitivity when the p H values of the medium changes from 3.0 and 7.0 and well reversible properties by undergoing a number of swelling/de-swelling recycles. In particular, the hydrogels exhibited self-oscillation behavior in a closed system containing Br O3？-SO32？-Fe（CN）64？-H＋. This study may create a new possibility as biomaterial for new self-walking actuators and other devices.展开更多
