Abstract

Light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques were used to carry out investigations of cross-linked polyacrylamide cryogels prepared by freezing aqueous or formamide solutions of acrylamide and N,N′-methylene-bisacrylamide in the presence of a radical polymerization initiator. The application of different techniques for the preparation of gels to be studied with electron microscopes allowed a conclusion to be drawn on the reality of the porous structure of cryogels and on the macro- and microheterogeneity of their structure.
