A self-assembled co-hydrogel system with sol-gel two-phase coexistence and mucoadhesive properties was developed based on the combined properties of fluoroalkyl double-ended poly(ethylene glycol) (Rf-PEG-Rf) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), respectively. We have synthesized an Rf-PEG-g-PAA (where g denotes grafted) copolymer and integrated it into the Rf-PEG-Rf physically cross-linked micellar network to form a co-hydrogel system. Tensile strengths between the co-hydrogel surfaces and two different sets of mucosal surfaces were acquired. One mucosal surface was made of porcine stomach mucin Type II, while the other one is a pig small intestine. The experimental results show that the largest maximum detachment stresses (MDSs) were obtained when the Rf-PEG-g-PAA’s weight percent in the dehydrated polymer mixture is ~15%. Tensile experiments also found that MDSs are greater in acidic conditions (pH = 4–5) (123.3 g/cm2 for the artificial mucus, and 43.0 g/cm2 for pig small intestine) and basic conditions (pH = 10.6) (126.9 g/cm2, and 44.6 g.cm2, respectively) than in neutral pH (45.4 g/cm2, and 30.7 g.cm2, respectively). Results of the rheological analyses using shear strain amplitude sweep and frequency sweep reveal that the Rf-PEG-g-PAA was physically integrated into the Rf-PEG-Rf micellar network, and the co-hydrogels remain physically cross-linked in three-dimensional micellar networks with long-term physical dispersion stability. Therefore, the co-hydrogel system is promising for drug delivery applications on mucosal surfaces.more » « less
