Degradable polymer networks and star polymers based on mixtures of two cleavable dimethacrylate crosslinkers: Synthesis, characterization, and degradation
(2009)
Mixtures of two cleavable dimethacrylate crosslinkers, the hydrolyzable di(methacryloyloxy-1-ethoxy)methane (DMOEM) and the thermolyzable 1,1-ethylenediol dimethacrylate (EDDMA), were used for the preparation of neat ...
Thermolyzable polymer networks and star polymers containing a novel, compact, degradable acylal-based dimethacrylate cross-linker: Synthesis, characterization, and thermolysis
(2007)
A compact, cleavable acylal dimethacrylate cross-linker, 1,1-ethylenediol dimethacrylate (EDDMA), was synthesized from the anhydrous iron(III) chloride-catalyzed reaction between methacrylic anhydride and acetaldehyde. The ...
Three different types of quasi-model networks: Synthesis by group transfer polymerization and characterization
(2007)
Group transfer polymerization (GTP) chemistry was employed for the preparation of polymethacrylate networks of controlled structure (quasi-model networks) of three different types: (a) regular quasi-model networks, in which ...
Synthesis and characterization of star polymers and cross-linked star polymer model networks containing a novel, silicon-based, hydrolyzable cross-linker
(2004)
An acid-labile dimethacrylate cross-linker, dimethyldi(methacryloyloxy-1-ethoxy)silane (DMDMAES), was synthesized by the reaction of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and dichlorodimethylsilane in the presence of ...
Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic star copolymers of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate: Effects of architecture and composition
(2007)
Six amphiphilic star copolymers comprising hydrophilic units of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and hydrophobic units of methyl methacrylate (MMA) were prepared by the sequential group transfer polymerization ...
Synthesis and characterization of star polymers and cross-linked star polymer model networks with cores based on an asymmetric, hydrolyzable dimethacrylate cross-linker
(2006)
A hydrolyzable dimethacrylate cross-linker, 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol dimethacrylate (MPDMA), was synhesized by the reaction of 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol and methacryloyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine. This ...
