The term polymer brush refers to a well defined arrangement of polymer chains, which are tethered with one end to an interface and usually the surface of a solid substrate. Due to steric repulsion the polymer chains furthermore adopt a defined, stretched c ...
This report demonstrates the feasibility of surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization to prepare thin polymer layers ("brushes") that can be functionalized with short peptide ligands and which may be of use as coatings to promote endothelializ ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the dispersion polymerization of methyl methacrylate in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), using a poly(dimethylsiloxane) macromonomer (PDMS macromonomer) as stabilizer. Supercritical fluids (SCF) and SCF mixtures ...
Surface-initiated controlled radical polymerization is a powerful strategy to tailor the chemical and physical surface properties of materials. This article highlights recent work from the author's laboratory in which surface-initiated atom transfer radica ...
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 ...
Using a rheometer coupled with an UV-light generator, the viscoelastic behaviour during the fast cure of star-branched polyester is investigated. The 32 arm star polymers consist of a hyperbranched polyester core, BoltornTM and linear grafts of poly(E-capr ...
It is demonstrated here that three different alpha-amino N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs), including for the first time O-benzyl-L-threonine NCA, can be polymerized in a controlled/"living" fashion without the need for transition metal catalysts or complex custo ...
The objective of this study was to investigate the behavior of highly functional acrylates, during isothermal ultraviolet (UV) curing. The materials included a pentafunctional acrylate and two acrylated hyperbranched polymers, one with a stiff polyester co ...
A meso-tetraaryl ruthenium porphyrin complex having four polymerizable vinylbenzoxy groups (2) has been synthesized by reaction of pyrrole with 4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzaldehyde and subsequent metalation with [Ru-3(CO)(12)]. The porphyrin complex was immobilize ...
OBJECTIVES: Tissue engineering methods can be applied to regenerate diseased, or congenitally missing, urinary tract tissues. Urinary tract tissue cell cultures must be established in vitro and adequate matrices, acting as cell carriers, must be developed. ...
