Abstract
PHEAs [α,β-poly(2-hydroxyethyl-DL-aspartamides)], a class of poly(amino acid), have been widely studied as biodegradable and biocompatible polymers for potential biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. In this study, we investigated a homogeneous blend of PHEA with poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PNVP) and its semi-IPN (semi-interpenetrating polymer network) gels. Blend films were prepared by a solution casting method. The resulting blends were totally transparent over the whole composition ranges and the single Tg, changing monotonously with composition, was observed by DSC to confirm the miscibility between these two polymers. FTIR was used to discuss the possible hydrogen-bonding interaction between polymers. In addition, semi-IPN type gels were prepared by chemical crosslinking of PHEA/PNVP blend solution using hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDI) as a crosslinking reagent. The prepared gel was characterized by their swelling property and morphology.

폴리아스팔트아미드[α,β-poly(2-hydroxyethyl-DL-aspartamides), PHEAs]는 폴리아미노산의 일종으로서 잠재적인 의학 및 약학분야에 응용가능한 생분해성 생체적합성 재료로 널리 연구되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 PHEA와 폴리(비닐 피롤리돈)(PNVP)의 블렌드 및 semi-IPN 젤에 관하여 다루었다. 블렌드 필름은 용액 캐스팅법으로 제조되었다. 제조된 블렌드는 전 조성에서 투명하였으며 DSC를 통해 조성에 따라 단조롭게 변화하는 단일한 유리전이 온도가 관찰됨으로써 두 개 고분자가 서로 상용성이 있음을 확인하였다. 고분자간의 가능한 수소결합 상호작용을 FTIR을 이용하여 설명하였다. 한편, 일정 조성의 PHEA/PNVP 블렌드 용액을 핵사메틸렌디이소시아네이트(HMDI)를 가교제로 사용하여 semi-IPN 타입의 하이브리드 젤을 제조하고, 제조된 젤의 팽윤 물성과 모폴로지를 조사하였다.
