Magnetic field sensitive gels, ferrogels are new promising class of hydrogels. The coupling of hydrogels and magnetic particles has potential application in soft actuators such as artificial muscles or for hyperthermia application. Here a composite of magnetite particles (Fe3O4) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel is developed using gamma irradiation as a crosslinking agent. PVA and Fe3O4 were chosen because of their well-established biocompatibility, radiation crosslinking potential (PVA), mild magnetic properties and the Curie point near desired heating temperature range (Fe3O4). Physico-chemical characteristics of these systems show the effect of the presence of particles in the process of radiation-induced crosslinking. Obtained PVA/Fe3O4 ferrogel composite has greater swelling capacity, activation energy of dehydration and dehydration rate compared to PVA hydrogel, crosslinked under the same conditions.

The polymeric biomaterial film based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and fish collagen of Lates calcarifer scale were synthesized by three times freeze-thaw cycles followed by gamma irradiation at varied doses of 0, 10, 20, and 30 kGy respectively. Characteristic of PVA/collagen film as effect of constituting polymers and cross linking methods were investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Universal Testing Machine (UTM), and Chroma Mater. Its gel fraction and swelling kinetic were determined by gravimetry. The result showed that IR spectra of controlled and irradiated film demonstrated characteristic vibration bands of both constituting materials. The DSC analysis revealed that gamma irradiation induced interaction between PVA and collagen at molecular level. Improvement of tensile properties by gamma irradiation was observed on tensile strength at 30 kGy with p < 0.05. Gamma irradiation also significantly (p < 0.05) increased yellowness of PVA/collagen film, reduced swelling kinetic, and increased gel fraction of films.
