Abstract

Abstract Radiation induced copolymerization of hydrogel networks based on hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, vinyl acetate, and dimethacrylates was reported. The equilibrium water content of copolymers was compared for the uncrosslinked, and crosslinked materials. The effect of composition of comonomer, nature, and concentration of crosslinker on the mechanical properties of HEMA‐co‐VAc and HPMA‐co‐VAc was discussed.
