Abstract

폴리아스팔트아미드[<TEX>${\alpha}$</TEX>,<TEX>${\beta}$</TEX>-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. PHEAs [<TEX>${\alpha}$</TEX>,<TEX>${\beta}$</TEX>-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 <TEX>$T_g$</TEX>, 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.
