Factorial Design Variables for Drug Release and Hardness of Dried Superporous Hydrogels

5.5 KB of experimental data on superporous hydrogel (SPH) formulations, uploaded by Nilima Thombre to figshare. The dataset includes coded and actual values for factorial design variables, percentage of drug release, and hardness measurements representing mechanical strength prior to swelling. It was last updated on May 8, 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between formulation variables and drug release percentage based on the described factorial design.
• Analyzing the mechanical strength (hardness) of dried hydrogel formulations prior to their swelling behavior.
• Optimizing superporous hydrogel (SPH) formulations for desired drug release profiles and physical robustness.

Strengths

• Dataset is small (5.5 KB), facilitating quick download and initial exploration.
• Data is shared under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, allowing for broad reuse with attribution.
• Last update timestamp (2026-05-08 17:45:29) is provided for version tracking.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for statistical modeling.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The 5.5 KB size indicates a very limited experimental scope, likely from a single study.
