Composite hydrogel metal-filled materials in many cases during the operation are used in the form of films, in medicine these are membrane different kind, of transdermal drugs, implants, elements of medical equipment intended for installation of a reliable contact with the human body, the instrument making-elements of different sensors (humidity, temperature, pressure, concentration of gaseous and liquid products), etc.
Analysis of the process of the centrifugal formation showed the possibility of using this method for processing compositions of HEMA-PVP in the presence of ions of metals of variable oxidation and production of film composites based on them. Metal-filled hydrogel films, produced by centrifugal molding are characterized by high surface quality and stable dimensions in thickness (variation in thickness doesn’t exceed 1%).
The goal of of research was to determine the effect of centrifugal molding technological parameters on structure and characteristics of metal-filled hydrogel film materials based on co-polymers PVP and HEMA.
It is determined that during molding under centrifugal force action in film thickness the filler liquation is occurring. The intensity of such liquation mainly depends on centrifugal mold rotation frequency and initial composition viscosity. The viscosity of polymer-monomer composition is rising with PVP content increasing and solvent content decreasing. The appearance of film articles surface quality and physical and mechanical properties anisotropy is a result of filler separating.
The film obtained by centrifugal formation has two surfaces: "external" – a surface that is in contact with mold surface, and "inner film surface", which is directed in mold cavity. The inner surface has lower quality than external one. Products obtained under rotation frequency more than 1000 rev/min are characterized by the best quality of inner surface.
It has been established that the strength and elastic properties of films during the application of force to the external surface are better than characteristics of films during the application of force to the inner surface. PVP content and mold rotation speed increasing cause to decrease of tensile strength at break. At the same time, increase of PVP content in the composition results in rising of composites elasticity.
