Synthesis and Characterisation of a Polysulfone-Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogelic Material
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2016 Hydrogels are flexible materials that have found a niche in membrane science owing to their ability to absorb water without dissolving. The synthesis of polyvinyl alcohol-polysulfone hydrogel in the presence of N-hydroxy succinimide is presented herein ...
