Preparation and Characterization of Alginate Hydrogel Fibers Reinforced by Cotton for Biomedical Applications

Preparation and Characterization of Alginate Hydrogel Fibers Reinforced by Cotton for Biomedical Applications

In this study, cotton-reinforced alginate hydrogel fibers were successfully synthesized using the wet spinning technique to improve hydrogel fibers’ mechanical strength and durability. Structural, chemical, and mechanical properties of the prepared fibers were characterized using scanning electron m...
