Linear polyacrylamide (PAAm) is modified with dopamine or nitrodopamine (PAAm-D and PAAm-ND respectively) to evaluate the Apigenin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside effect of nitro-group modification on the interfacial binding properties of polymer-bound catechol. functionality and molecular weight between crosslinks nitro-group functionalization of dopamine results in a polymer network with increased crosslinking density and crosslinking points with higher functionality. Nitro-functionalization… Continue reading Linear polyacrylamide (PAAm) is modified with dopamine or nitrodopamine (PAAm-D and
