Thermally Tunable Dynamic and Static Elastic Properties of Hydrogel Due to Volumetric Phase Transition

Thermally Tunable Dynamic and Static Elastic Properties of Hydrogel Due to Volumetric Phase Transition

The temperature dependence of the mechanical properties of polyvinyl alcohol-based poly n-isopropyl acrylamide (PVA-PNIPAm) hydrogel was studied from the static and dynamic bulk modulus of the material. The effect of the temperature-induced volumetric phase transition on Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s r...
