Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel method of preparing films based on cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide). This method comprises the steps consisting in: a) dissolving said polymer or copolymer of ethylene oxide, alone or in a mixture, with a water-soluble polymer, in a solvent system made up of water, an organic solvent, or a mixture in any proportion. of water and of organic solvent, in the presence of an effective amount of a photo-initiating agent or of a cross-linking agent; b1) either drying the solution thus obtained until the solvent system has evaporated, when this solvent system is made up exclusively of an organic solvent, to thus obtain a dry film, and treating the film thus obtained under conditions enabling an amount of water to be absorbed of between 10 and 100% by weight with respect to the weight of the polymer; b2) or drying the solution thus obtained until the solvent system has evaporated, when this solvent system is made up of water or a water-organic solvent mixture, to thus obtain a film containing between 10 and 100% by weight of water with respect to the weight of the polymer; c) irradiating the film thus obtained by means of ultraviolet rays of a wavelength of between 200 and 400 nm, for a period of time sufficient to enable the cross-linking.
