Hybrid nanogels for sustainable positive thermosensitive drug release
Abstract:
A hybrid nanogel has been developed based on interpenetrating networks of thermosensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) gels and tailored nanoporous silica. A sustainable positive thermo-responsive drug release profile is obtained. When the temperature rises, the polymer gel shrinks, squeezing the drug into the porous channels, and at the same time, opening the pores to the outside media. The drug slowly diffuses out of the porous channels. The overall release rate can be adjusted by changing the composition of the nanogel.
