A review on polymeric hydrogel membranes for wound dressing applications: PVA-based hydrogel dressings (2017, methodology): “2): (a) keep a local moist environment around wound, (b) good gases transmission, (c) remove excess exudates, but do not reach to saturation on wound outer surface, (d) protect the wound from micro-organisms, infections, or contaminations, (e) stop the wound desiccation, (f) reduce the wound surface”
Nanocomposite polymer hydrogels (2009, methodology): “Adding montmorillonite nanoparticles to PVA can increase the mechanical strength of a hydrogel so that the hydrogel can be used in high shear applications [38].”
