Synthesis and swelling studies of modified chitosan smart hydrogels containing alkyl sulfonate anionic pendant groups as microparticles for insulin release by Sabikeh G. Azimi, F. Mehdi Moosavi, Zahra Khoshbin, Neda Shakour, Sohrab Kazemi

“…Concurrently, increasing temperature resulted in an elevated swelling rate, which is likely due to the disruption of intramolecular non-covalent bonds, including hydrogen bonds formed between carboxyl and hydroxyl groups within the hydrogel structure. In other words, elevated temperatures enhance swelling by weakening intramolecular non-covalent bonds and increasing the amount of free space within the hydrogel. …”
