Interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogels were prepared by grafting of acrylamide (AAm), N-methylol acrylamide (NMA) and acrylic acid (AAc) onto preirradiated polypropylene (PP) membrane. To obtain PP-g-AAc/AAm/NMA IPN hydrogels, at first, AAc were grafted onto preirradiated PP and then AAm were grafted onto the PP-g-AAc membranes. Finally NMA were grafted onto PP-g-AAc/AAm membranes. In the different stages of grafting under different reaction conditions, trapped radicals in the membrane samples were probed by electron spin resonance (ESR). The temperature response behaviors of the IPN hydrogels were studied. Reversible behavior and controlled release of drug tests made reflecting the switching to on state at higher temperatures and to off state at lower temperatures were achieved. By increasing the grafted content of NMA, higher transition temperature of the hydrogel could be attained.
