Abstract: A thermally processable graft copolymer formed from a water soluble polymer and a water insoluble polymer, wherein the graft copolymer forms a hydrogel upon exposure to water. A method to form such a hydrogel-forming graft copolymer by copolymerizing a water soluble 2-substituted-2-oxazolines with a water insoluble 2-substituted-2-oxazoline. A method to form such a hydrogel-forming graft copolymer by transamidating a poly-2-oxazoline with a carboxylic acid terminated water-insoluble polymer.

Abstract: A method to form a polymeric material is disclosed. The method provides a water immiscible solvent and one or more condensation monomers, where those one or more condensation monomers are essentially insoluble in the water immiscible solvent. The one or more condensation monomers may be either a solid or a liquid at room temperature. The method forms a reaction mixture comprising a suspension of one or more solid condensation monomers, or an emulsion of one or more liquid condensation monomers, in the water immiscible solvent. The method includes heating the reaction mixture to form the polymeric material product. That polymeric material is then separated from said reaction mixture.
