Network polymers based on tetrazolylethyl cellulose ether

Abstract

Specific features of synthesis of network polymers based on tetrazolylethyl cellulose ethers by alkylation of tetrazole rings in the structure of the cellulose derivative with di- and polyfunctional oligomeric and polymeric oxiranecontaining compounds were studied. The influence exerted by the structure of the cross-linking agents on the time parameters of the network structure formation, degree of the polymer cross-linking, ability of the network polymers obtained to absorb various liquids, and pH and temperature sensitivity of the hydrogels based on cross-linked tetrazolylated cellulose was considered.
