Chemically Crosslinked N-Vinyl-2-Pyrrolidone/2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (VP/HEMA) Copolymer for the Controlled Release of Cyclic Oligopeptide

Crosslinked copolymers of various compositions of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (VP) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) were prepared chemically in the presence of a crosslinking agent. The swelling mechanism was non-Fickian with about 86% conversion of feed composition to crosslinked copolymer. The reactivity ratios r1 = 0.045 and r2 = 3.07 for VP and HEMA indicate that HEMA is more reactive than VP in the reaction. Hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity and monomer composition in the copolymer controlled the drug release from the hydrogels.
