摘　　要：Semi-interpenetrating network（semi-IPN） hydrogels composed of sodium carboxylmethylcellulose（NaCMC） and poly N-isopropylacrylamide（PNIPAm） were prepared by free radical polymerization of N-isopropyl acrylamide（NIPAm） in dimethylsulfoxide（DMSO） in the presence of NaCMC. The structures of hydrogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FTIR）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and differential scanning calorimetry（DSC）. SEM images show that the hydrogels present porous network structures. Most water in the hydrogels were free water and freezing water. The equilibrium swelling ratio（ESR） and swelling rate（SR） were quite different at various swelling temperature. ESR of the hydrogels ranged abruptly from 15.2 g/g to 1.56 g/g and the hydrogels changed from transparent into opaque with swelling temperature changing from 33 ℃ to 34 ℃, that is to say, the hydrogels exhibited the good temperature sensitivity at about 33 ℃ similar to low critical solution temperature（LCST） of pure PNIPAm, swelling rate were very different at below and above LCST due to hydrogel swelling with different swelling mechanism. Moreover, the semi-IPN hydrogels swelled much rapidly than pure PNIPAm hydrogels did at room temperature, the equillibrium swelling ratio（ESR） and swelling rate of the hydrogels increased with increasing of NaCMC content, i e. It is suggested that NaCMC could be potential for preparation of porous and rapid swelling hydrogelsSemi-interpenetrating network（semi-IPN） hydrogels composed of sodium carboxylmethylcellulose（NaCMC） and poly N-isopropylacrylamide（PNIPAm） were prepared by free radical polymerization of N-isopropyl acrylamide（NIPAm） in dimethylsulfoxide（DMSO） in the presence of NaCMC.
