Fructose methacrylate monomer was synthetized by transesterification of D-fructose with trifluoroethylmethacrylate catalysed by lipase Novozym 435, and polymerized by radical polymerization in the presence of a crosslinker at different concentrations. The poly(fructose methacrylate) hydrogel presented high water swelling coefficients dependent on the crosslinking density. These hydrogels are elastomeric and resilient, and the water entrapped inside them is located in different environments as bounding and free water.
