Polyacryloyl hydrazide based injectable & stimuli responsive hydrogels with tunable properties

The synthesis and characterization of a series of injectable and stimuli responsive hydrogels based on polyacryloyl hydrazide have been accomplished using dimethyl 2,2′-thiodiacetate, acrylic acid, diethyl malonate and polyethylene glycol diacrylate as cross-linkers through a chemical or dual cross-linking pathway.
