Abstract

The data article refers to the paper "supramolecular hydrogel based on cellulose for sustained release of therapeutic substances with antimicrobial and wound healing properties"[1]. The dataset includes the synthesis and characterization of (E)-1,3-bis(4-(allyloxy)phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (3) (crosslinking agent). Moreover, the multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) synthesis and functionalization (MWCNTs-COOH) are described. The formulation obtained by adding multiwalled carbon nanotubes-COOH with the crosslinked cellulose-chalcone hydrogel is abbreviated as MWCNTsCCH, and the same formulation loaded with therapeutic substances (TS) is named MWCNTsCCH-TS. The MWCNTsCCH database such as components and their amounts, swelling degree, thermogravimetric analysis, and cytotoxicity evaluation are depicted. Finally, to elucidate the mechanism of therapeutic substances release, the obtained averages of the release profiles were fitted through mathematical models. (C) 2020 The Author(s).
