AB  - The Polymer group of the Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy University of Belgrade deals with environment-sensitive hydrogel as carriersfor biomedical applications, including drug delivery, wound healing, and regenerative medicine. The first hydrogel generation synthesized in our labs was discs made of polyacrylamide and its derivatives. The synthesis was at higher temperatures (50 °C), with traditional crosslinker, N, N’-methylenebisacrylamide, and persulphate/pyrosulphate as initiator. Due to the growing demands for environmental sustainability, the general approach changed to reduce petrochemical raw materials and prepare eco-friendly materials focusing on 1) renewable polymers, initiators, and crosslinkers and 2) the application of simple, cost-effective, and eco-friendly approaches in hydrogel synthesis. To obtain the second hydrogel generation, we use renewable polymers: polysaccharides, proteins, and polyhydroxyalkanoates [1]. Still, the mechanical strength was weak. Hence, the applicationof carboxylic acids, methacrylic and itaconic, and N-isopropyl acrylamide improves mechanical properties and enhances the environmental stimuli of the carriers. Instead of traditional crosslinkers -organic molecules, we gave the advantage to plant extracts like genipin, sodium tripolyphosphate, citric acid, and calcium chloride. We made beads, microgels, aerogels, discs, films, and cylinders sensitive to pH, temperature, magnetic field, or specific molecules such as glucose. Facing an everyday challenge, improving drug delivery routes, especially for poorly water-soluble drugs, and finding an alternative to traditional antibiotics, encapsulation, and controlled release remain a challenge. Therefore, we used a mild condition (e.g., deep coating) to encapsulate/release traditional water-soluble and poorly water-soluble drugs, proteins, phenolic compounds, or supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) for thymol, carvacrol, and eugenol, a promising alternative for traditional antibiotics [2]. Furthermore, we reduced the hydrogel production temperature to ambient conditions and made a simple and cost-effective production process that doesn't require special equipment. The promising results we got pushed us further. So, the current research focuses on the encapsulation/controlled release of antioxidant phenolic compounds extracted from orange peel waste by applying ultrasonic-assisted extraction and deep eutectic solvent(DES) based on glycerol: urea: water. We use a new initiator system based on vitamin C and H2O2to polymerizea methacrylic acid[3]that could be useful for other monomers.As a concluding remark, we achieved significant progress in hydrogels encouragingus to continue further.

AB  - The aim of the present study was to investigate starch-based materials, prepared in an environmentally friendly way and from renewable resources, suitable for the development of biodegradable active food packaging. For this purpose, a bioactive compound (thymol) was incorporated into thermoplastic starch (TPS) and a TPS blend with poly (ε-caprolactone) (TPS–PCL) by the supercritical CO2 (scCO2) impregnation process. Impregnation experiments with scCO2 were carried out at a pressure of 30 MPa and temperatures in the range of 40–100 °C during 1 to 20 h. The structural, morphological, and thermal properties of the obtained materials were comprehensively evaluated. Bioactive component release kinetic studies were performed in water at 6 °C and 25 °C. It was shown that the scCO2 impregnation process could be successfully employed for thymol loading into TPS and TPS–PCL. The process was significantly influenced by the operating temperature and time as well as content of PCL. The samples showed a controlled release of thymol within seven days with a higher amount of released thymol from the TPS–PCL blend. The obtained materials are solvent-free and release the bioactive component in a controlled manner.

AB  - This study investigates pharmaceutical polymers (Soluplus((R)), HPMCAS, and Eudragit((R)) E100) and supercritical CO2-assisted process for preparation of floating valsartan delivery systems. Tested process (at pressure of 30 MPa and temperature of 100 degrees C during 2 h) enabled preparation of stable porous valsartan formulations which was confirmed with FESEM and mercury intrusion porosimetry analysis. The bulk density of obtained formulations was lower than 550 kg/m(3). FTIR, DSC, and PXRD analysis indicated that there was no chemical interaction between the drug and polymers and that amorphous solid dispersions were obtained. Formulations with Soluplus((R)) and HPMCAS retained its buoyancy in 0.1 M HCl for longer than 24 h, while formulation with Eudragit((R)) E100 retained its buoyancy up to 2 h. Controlled valsartan release was influenced by solubility of polymers in the tested release medium, which was confirmed by UV/VIS spectroscopy. The obtained results provided framework for further development of floating drug delivery system using an environmental friendly process.

AB  - Textile industry wastewater represents a serious environmental problem because it contains different dyes and toxic substances used during the production and dyeing of textile. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the removal of dyes from wastewater using a simple method such as sorption. Since different salts are used during the dyeing of textile, anions and cations are present in wastewaters and they can affect the process of dye removal. In this paper, the influence of several anions on the removal of textile dyes was investigated. Chitosan and methacrylic acid-based hydrogels obtained by free-radical polymerization and cross-linked with N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide were used as sorbents. Removal of two textile dyes was investigated (anionic dye C.I. Acid Orange 7 and cationic dye C.I. Basic Red 1) at two different temperatures (25 and 50 ° C). The influence of anions on the removal was evaluated using sodium compounds dissolved in dye solutions (NaCl, CH3COONa, Na2CO3, Na2HPO4, NaH2PO4, NaNO3, NaOH). It has been found that hydrogel degree of swelling increased significantly with the increase of pH of the dye solution. The presence of different ions affected the sorption capacity of hydrogels and the best results were obtained when NaH2PO4 and NaNO3 were present.

AB  - With the excessive risks that are present in today's environment, it is of great importance to treat wastewaters before their discharge in water streams. One of the everyday challenges is design of a low-cost and environmentally friendly sorbent such as hydrogel based on chitosan, itaconic and methacrylic acid that can remove wide range of textile dyes. In the present study, this hydrogel has been utilized for investigation of removal of three different azo dyes from simulated textile wastewater: C.I. Basic Blue 9, C.I. Basic Red 1 and C.I. Acid Orange 7. It was found that pH value of the solution had significant effect on dye sorption. Removal of basic dyes was successful at higher pH values, while sorption of acid dye was possible only at low pH value of solution. Simulated textile wastewater is a complex system with various salts, acids and polymers present beside dyes. Regardless of these components, excellent sorption capacity was achieved (more than 80% of dyes were removed), which makes this hydrogel attractive for use under real conditions.
AB  - Zbog sve više rizika koji se javljaju po životnu sredinu, veoma je važno prečistiti otpadne vode pre njihovog ispuštanja u vodotokove. Zato je jedan od izazova današnjih istraživanja dizajn jeftinog i ekološki prihvatljivog sorbenta, kao što je hidrogel na bazi hitozana, itakonske i metakrilne kiseline, koji može da ukloni širok spektar tekstilnih boja. U ovom radu je korišćen hidrogel za ispitivanje uklanjanja tri različite azo boje iz simulirane otpadne vode iz tekstilne industrije: C.I. Basic Blue 9, C.I. Basic Red 1 i C.I. Acid Orange 7. Utvrđeno je da pH vrednost rastvora značajno utiče na sorpciju boja. Uklanjanje baznih boja je uspešno pri višim pH vrednostima, dok je sorpcija kisele boje moguća samo pri niskoj pH vrednosti rastvora. Simulirana otpadna voda iztekstilne industrije je složen sistem sačinjen od različith soli, kiselina i polimera koji su prisutni pored boja za tekstil. Bez obzira na ove komponente, ostvaren je odličan kapacitet sorpcije (uklonjeno je više od 80% boje iz rastvora), što ovaj hidrogel čini atraktivnim za upotrebu u realnim sistemima.

Simulated textile wastewater is a complex system with various salts, acids and polymers present beside dyes. Regardless of these components, excellent sorption capacity was achieved (more than 80% of dyes were removed), which makes this hydrogel attractive for use under real conditions., Zbog sve više rizika koji se javljaju po životnu sredinu, veoma je važno prečistiti otpadne vode pre njihovog ispuštanja u vodotokove. Zato je jedan od izazova današnjih istraživanja dizajn jeftinog i ekološki prihvatljivog sorbenta, kao što je hidrogel na bazi hitozana, itakonske i metakrilne kiseline, koji može da ukloni širok spektar tekstilnih boja. U ovom radu je korišćen hidrogel za ispitivanje uklanjanja tri različite azo boje iz simulirane otpadne vode iz tekstilne industrije: C.I. Basic Blue 9, C.I. Basic Red 1 i C.I. Acid Orange 7. Utvrđeno je da pH vrednost rastvora značajno utiče na sorpciju boja. Uklanjanje baznih boja je uspešno pri višim pH vrednostima, dok je sorpcija kisele boje moguća samo pri niskoj pH vrednosti rastvora. Simulirana otpadna voda iztekstilne industrije je složen sistem sačinjen od različith soli, kiselina i polimera koji su prisutni pored boja za tekstil. Bez obzira na ove komponente, ostvaren je odličan kapacitet sorpcije (uklonjeno je više od 80% boje iz rastvora), što ovaj hidrogel čini atraktivnim za upotrebu u realnim sistemima.",

AB  - Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) technology was used for preparation of functional pH sensitive chitosan-based aerogels characterized with micron size pores and their impregnation with thymol as a natural bioactive substance. Hydrogels based on chitosan, itaconic and methacrylic acids were transformed to alcogels and dried in the air or with scCO(2) to obtain xero- and aerogels, respectively. Applying 10 min of static and 120 min of dynamic scCO(2) drying at 11 MPa and 45 degrees C followed with the decompression at a rate of 1 MPa/min yielded an advantageous aerogel with favorable swelling kinetics and elasticity, compared to the xerogel and aerogels obtained at other decompression rates and drying times. This aerogel was successfully loaded with thymol (up to 4.6 wt.%) using supercritical scCO(2) at 10 MPa and 35 degrees C. In vitro studies of swelling in PBS at 37 degrees C indicated a great potential of the obtained stimuli-responsive chitosan gels for topical administration of thymol known for antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

AB  - The present work was aimed to study swelling kinetics of polylactic acid (PLA) and its impregnation with thymol in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) medium. The influences of temperature and soaking time on the swelling kinetics and impregnation yield of PLA cylindrical disc and film were investigated. Swelling experiments were performed in a high pressure view cell at 10 MPa and temperatures of 40°C, 60°C and 75°C for 2 to 24 h. On the basis of swelling kinetics, pressure of 10 MPa and temperature of 40°C were chosen for supercritical solvent impregnation (SSI) of the PLA samples during 2 to24 h. The highest swelling extent was observed for the PLA monolith after 24 h treatment with pure scCO2 (7.5%) and scCO2 with thymol (118.3%). It was shown that sufficiently high amount of thymol can be loaded into both PLA monolith and film using SSI after only 2 h (10.0% and 6.6%, respectively). Monolith and film of PLA impregnated with thymol could be suitable for active food packaging and sterile medical disposables.

AB  - The present paper deals with removal and photocatalytic degradation of the textile dyes by TiO2 nanoparticles immobilized onto chitosan-based microparticles. The microparticles composed of chitosan (Ch) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) were fabricated for the first time by inverse suspension polymerization. They were utilized for colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles immobilization, synthetized by acidic hydrolysis of TiCl4. To evaluate the potential application of Ch/PMA/TiO2 microparticles for treatment of textile wastwaters, their photocatalytic activity was examined by degradation assessment of three different groups of anionic azo dyes in aqueous solutions under solar light simulating source. FTIR analysis revealed that Ch and PMA were incorporated in the polymer network. SEM and optical microscopy confirmed their spherical shape. Under illumination, Ch/PMA/TiO2 microparticles completely removed dyes C.I. Acid Orange 7, C.I. Acid Red 18, C.I. Acid Blue 113, C.I. Reactive Black 5, C.I. Direct Blue 78, while removal degree of C.I. Reactive Yellow 17 was 75%. It was found that pH had significant influence on the photocatalytic activity of Ch/PMA/TiO2 microparticles. Increase of solution pH from acidic to alkaline, lead to decrease in photodegradation rate of C.I. Acid Orange 7 during the first hours of illumination. After three illumination cycles, removal degree of C.I. Acid Orange 7 was maintained at remarkably high level (95% at pH 5.60 and 100% at pH 2.00 and 8.00), indicating that microparticles could be reused without significant loss of photocatalytic efficiency.

The microparticles composed of chitosan (Ch) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) were fabricated for the first time by inverse suspension polymerization.

To evaluate the potential application of Ch/PMA/TiO2 microparticles for treatment of textile wastwaters, their photocatalytic activity was examined by degradation assessment of three different groups of anionic azo dyes in aqueous solutions under solar light simulating source.

AB  - The aim of this Ph.D. thesis was to investigate the possibility of immobilization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles onto/into hydrogels as carriers, as well as the photodegradation of textile dyes from aqueous solutions by titanium dioxide/hydrogel nanocomposites that could be exploited for treatment of textile effluents. Two types of TiO2 nanoparticles were used: (a) freshly synthetized colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles, prepared by acid hydrolysis of titanium tetrachloride; (b) commercially available TiO2 nanoparticles (Degussa P25), which were used for comparison of photocatalytic activity. The following hydrogels have been synthetized as a carriers for TiO2 nanoparticles: (a) chitosan, itaconic acid and methacrylic acid hydrogels synthesized by free radical polymerization; (b) chitosan and poly(methacrylic acid) microparticles (Ch/PMA), which were synthesized for the first time by inverse suspension polymerization; (c) sodium alginate and partially neutralized poly(methacrylic acid) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) obtained by free radical polymerization followed by additional cross-linking of sodium alginate with calcium ions. TiO2/hydrogel nanocomposites were obtained by immobilization of TiO2 nanoparticles onto/into hydrogels, which were afterwards characterized and their photocatalytic activity was tested. The presence of TiO2 nanoparticles onto/into hydrogels was confirmed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX). The porous structure of the chitosan-based hydrogels and sodium alginate-based interpenetrating networks was observed by SEM analysis. Swelling experiments and rheological studies showed that the pore size, swelling kinetics and mechanical strength depend on the hydrogel composition, degree of crosslinking, presence of TiO2 nanoparticles and the type of immobilized TiO2 nanoparticles. SEM analysis and optical microscopy revealed that chitosan microparticles have a spherical structure. Infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transformation (FTIR) showed that all components present during hydrogel synthesis were incorporated into the polymer network. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) demonstrated that the prepared samples had good thermal stability...

AB  - An interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) based on the sodium alginate (A) and partially neutralized poly(methacrylic acid) (MAA) was prepared by free radical polymerization followed by additional cross-linking of sodium alginate with calcium ions. Obtained material (A/MAA IPN) was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and rheological measurements. Swelling behavior of synthetized IPN has been also investigated. TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) were immobilized onto A/MAA IPN by dip-coating method and obtained TiO2/IPN nanocomposite was used for removal of the methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. The photodegradation (under illumination) and sorption (in the dark) processes for dye removal were monitored through decrease of dye concentration in the solution by UV/VIS spectrometer. The TiO2/IPN nanocomposite sorbed approximately 93% of the MB from a 10 mg L-1 MB solution in the dark, but no degradation occurred. Likewise, more than 93% of dye was removed after 8 h of illumination. However, after 24 h of illumination, the samples were discolored indicating that dye molecules were successfully degraded. Thus, the TiO2/IPN nanocomposite could be utilized in the photodegradation-sorption process for the abatement of pollutants in water. POLYM. ENG. SCI., 55:2511-2518, 2015.

AB  - TiO2/hydrogel nanocomposite has been utilized for investigation of photocatalytic degradation of three different groups of anionic azo dyes in aqueous solutions under solar light simulating source in order to evaluate its potential application for treatment of textile wastewaters. Hydrogel based on chitosan, itaconic and methacrylic acid (monomers ratio Ch/IA/MAA = 1:1.56:10) was modified with synthetized 0.2 M colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles and 0.2 M commercial Degussa P-25. SEM/EDX measurements confirmed the presence of Ti in the hydrogel. TiO2 nanoparticles did not affect already formed covalent bonds within polymer network, nor did they affect its thermal stability. However, network morphology, mechanical properties and swelling behavior were changed in the presence of TiO2 nanoparticles. Under sun-like illumination, nanocomposite with immobilized colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles completely removed C.I. Acid Red 18, C.I. Acid Blue 113, C.I. Reactive Black Sand C.I.

AB  - This study reports the synthesis of polymeric matrices based on N-isopropylacrylamide and itaconic acid and its application for immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa. The lipase was immobilized by entrapment method. Free and immobilized lipase activities, pH and temperature optima, and storage stability were investigated. The optimum temperature for free and entrapped lipase was found to be 40 and 45 degrees C, while the optimum pH was observed at pH 7 and 8, respectively. Both hydrolytic activity in an aqueous medium and esterolytic activity in an organic medium have been evaluated. Maximum reaction rate (V-max) and Michaelis-Menten constants (K-m) were also determined for immobilized lipase. Storage stability of lipase was increased as a result of immobilization process. Furthermore, the operational stability and reusability of the immobilized lipase in esterification reaction have been studied, and it was observed that after 10 cycles, the residual activity for entrapped lipase was as high as 50%, implying that the developed hydrogel and immobilized system could provide a promising solution for the flavor ester synthesis at the industrial scale.

abstract = "This study reports the synthesis of polymeric matrices based on N-isopropylacrylamide and itaconic acid and its application for immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa. The lipase was immobilized by entrapment method. Free and immobilized lipase activities, pH and temperature optima, and storage stability were investigated. The optimum temperature for free and entrapped lipase was found to be 40 and 45 degrees C, while the optimum pH was observed at pH 7 and 8, respectively. Both hydrolytic activity in an aqueous medium and esterolytic activity in an organic medium have been evaluated. Maximum reaction rate (V-max) and Michaelis-Menten constants (K-m) were also determined for immobilized lipase. Storage stability of lipase was increased as a result of immobilization process. Furthermore, the operational stability and reusability of the immobilized lipase in esterification reaction have been studied, and it was observed that after 10 cycles, the residual activity for entrapped lipase was as high as 50%, implying that the developed hydrogel and immobilized system could provide a promising solution for the flavor ester synthesis at the industrial scale.",

AB  - Photocatalytic degradation of dye C.I. Acid Orange 7 in aqueous solution using TiO2/hydrogel nanocomposite under solar light simulating source was studied. Hydrogel based on chitosan, itaconic and methacrylic acid was modified with colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles synthetized by acidic hydrolysis of TiCl4 and commercial Degussa P25 TiO2 nanoparticles. SEM/EDX analysis confirmed the presence of TiO2 nanoparticles onto/into hydrogel. It was found that both types of photocatalysts efficiently removed the dye from solution, but sorption rates and photodegradation efficiency were higher in the case of colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles. They ensured complete discoloration of dye solution. The efficiency of the reused TiO2/hydrogel nanocomposite showed that photodegradation activity was maintained at satisfactory level after three repeated cycles of illumination. POLYM.

AB  - Stimuli responsive pH- and temperature-sensitive hydrogel drug delivery systems, as those based on N-isopropylacrylamide (NiPAAm) and itaconic acid (IA), have been attracting much of the attention of the scientific community nowadays, especially in the field of drug release. By adjusting comonomer composition, the matrix is enabled to protect the incorporated protein in the highly acidic environment of upper gastrointestinal tract and deliver it in the neutral or slightly basic region of the lower intestine. The protein/poly(NiPAAm-co-IA) hydrogels were synthetized by free radical crosslinking copolymerization and were characterized concerning their swelling capability, mechanical properties, and morphology. The pore structure and sizes up to 1.90 nm allowed good entrapment of lipase molecules. Model protein, lipase from Candida rugosa, was entrapped within hydrogels upon mild conditions that provided its protection from harmful environmental influences. The efficiency of the lipase entrapment reached 96.7%, and was dependent on the initial concentration of lipase solution. The swelling of the obtained hydrogels in simulated pH and temperature of gastrointestinal tract, the lipase entrapment efficiency, and its release profiles from hydrogels were investigated as well.
