A simple equation for description of solute release II. Fickian and anomalous release from swellable devices
TL;DR: In this paper, an exponential relation M t /M ∞ = kt n may be used to describe the Fickian and non-Fickian release behavior of release systems which are prepared by incorporation of a drug in a hydrophilic, initially glassy polymer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of hydrogels and their experimental determination.
TL;DR: This work has shown that the mechanical properties of hydrogels are highly dependent on the polymer structure, especially the cross-linking density and the degree of swelling, and methods for controlling the properties were presented.
