Kleine Vorschau
Zusammenfassung: 
Hydrogels are three-dimensional hydrophilic polymeric networks absorbing up to and even more than 90 wt% of water. These superabsorbent polymers retain their shape during the swelling process while enlarging their volume and mass. In addition to their swelling behavior, hydrogels can possess other interesting properties, such as biocompatibility, good rheological behavior, or even antimicrobial activity. This versatility qualifies hydrogels for many medical applications, especially drug delivery systems. As recently shown, polyelectrolyte-based hydrogels offer beneficial properties for long-term and stimulus-responsive applications. However, the fabrication of complex structures and shapes can be difficult to achieve with common polymerization methods. This obstacle can be overcome by the use of additive manufacturing. 3D printing technology is gaining more and more attention as a method of producing materials for biomedical applications and medical devices. Photopolymerizing 3D printing methods offer superior resolution and high control of the photopolymerization process, allowing the fabrication of complex and customizable designs while being less wasteful. In this work, novel synthetic hydrogels, consisting of [2-(acryloyloxy) ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride (AETMA) as an electrolyte monomer and poly(ethylene glycol)-diacrylate (PEGDA) as a crosslinker, 3D printed via Digital Light Processing (DLP) using a layer height of 100 μm, are reported. The hydrogels obtained showed a high swelling degree q∞m,t ∼ 12 (24 h in PBS; pH 7; 37 °C) and adjustable mechanical properties with high stretchability (ϵmax ∼ 300%). Additionally, we embedded the model drug acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and investigated its stimulus-responsive drug release behaviour in different release media. The stimulus responsiveness of the hydrogels is mirrored in their release behavior and could be exploited in triggered as well as sequential release studies, demonstrating a clear ion exchange behavior. The received 3D-printed drug depots could also be printed in complex hollow geometry, exemplarily demonstrated via an individualized frontal neo-ostium implant prototype. Consequently, a drug-releasing, flexible, and swellable material was obtained, combining the best of both worlds: the properties of hydrogels and the ability to print complex shapes.
