title = "Effect of CO2 release behavior on the crosslinking degree of alginate hydrogels prepared with CaCO3 and carbonated water",
abstract = "Carbonated water facilitates the gelation of alginate and CaCO3 solutions. The rapid release of CO2 from the hydrogels after gelation resulted in a faster pH increase, lower amount of CaCO3 dissolution, and lower crosslinking degree. The CO2 release behavior, i.e., “post-gelation condition,” affects the degree of crosslinking, an essential parameter for determining hydrogel properties.",
