This paper describes the synthesis of two novel tetra 2-bromoisobutyric acid-substituted perylene fluorophores and their use as initiators for the atom transfer radical polymerization of styrene. Different star-shaped polystyrenes covering a wide range of ...
In tissue engineering, degradable or non-degradable polymer matrices can act as cell-carrier-scaffolds. Cell adhesion and growth on these scaffolds can be promoted by immobilizing extracellular matrix proteins. Therefore, in this study, polymer poly(ethyle ...
In order to describe the different events occurring during the anionic polymerization of polyamide 12 (PA12), a general concept of a time, temperature, and transformation (TTT) diagram was established and related to reactive processing conditions. Polymeri ...
Stimuli-responsive polymers have the unique property of undergoing a reversible phase transition. This property has attracted much interest for their application in the field of medicine and biotechnology, such as drug delivery systems. Linear polymers of ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a silicone elastomer stamp with a hydrophilic surface. SOLUTION: The method for fabricating silicone elastomer stamps with hydrophilic surfaces is provided. The concept of polymer grafting is used to ...
The different steps associated with the curing of a PVAc/polyester blend are identified and correlated to the mechanism of shrinkage control in the presence of a low-profile additive (LPA). Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) is used as a LPA and is shown to induce ...
A precise data set describing the kinetics of the free radical copolymn. of acrylamide/acrylic acid (AM/AA) in the range of low total monomer concn. as a function of the pH, total monomer concn., initiator concn., and comonomer ratio is presented. Strong i ...
A method for fabricating silocone elastomer stamps with hydrophilic surfaces is provided. The concept of polymer grafting is used to produce the stamps. The stamps thus produced have the great advantage that grafting of a thin hydrophilic polymer on a hydr ...
