Synthesis and characterization of PU/Alg/Honey hydrogel, containGraphene oxide nanoparticle

In recent years, there has been a growing trend in combining biopolymers with synthetic polymers,particularly polysaccharide-based biopolymers like starch, cellulose, chitin, chitosan, and alginate.These materials are increasingly used across various industries due to their desirable properties suchas biocompatibility, biodegradability, renewability, and environmental friendliness. Alginate, inparticular, stands out for its unique properties and cost-effectiveness, making it a promising optionfor biomedical applications, including wound dressings. To address the issue of poor mechanicalproperties in these polymers, the incorporation of biodegradable polyurethane can enhance themechanical strength of the hydrogel. Additionally, the use of nanoparticles like graphene oxide iscrucial, as it further improves mechanical strength and offers antioxidant properties that can benefitcell growth and tissue repair within the wound.
