Abstract | Solvent migration in swelling polymer shows complex behaviour, as the interface of wet (rubbery) region moves along with solvent diffusion into the dry (glassy) region, which is accompanied by local deformation. This extrinsic mechanism has led to novel three-dimensional (3D) polymer micro-actuators using direct solvent delivery via microfluidic channels. Here we present experimental techniques to quantify the non-Fickian diffusion in the swelling polymer in an attempt to predict the dynamics of local deformation in such solvent driven micro-actuators. We recorded the evolving diffusion front of solvent in poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEG-DA) hydrogel upon wetting. In order to measure diffusivity of solvent in the polymer, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used. Simulation result from the theory shows good agreement with Case II non-Fickian swelling experiment. We expect that our experimental methods for such coupled diffusion and deformation will help better capture the underlying physics of hydrogel behaviour and provide fundamental basis in exploration of various hydrogel applications. |
