General description

PEHMA exhibits biomimetic properties. It finds potential application as a flexible hydrogel for ophthalmologic applications.

Application

Poly(2-ethylhexyl methacrylate) (PEHMA) may be used to synthesize binary polymeric blends with poly(butyl methacrylate). PEHMA may be utilized in the preparation of PEHMA /carbon black composites for gas sensing. PHEMA-antioxidant conjugate (Quercetin (Q) ) may be prepared for ophthalmologic uses.

Micro and Nanometer Scale Photopatterning of Self-Assembled Monolayers

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have attracted enormous interest for a wide variety of applications in micro- and nano-technology. In this article, we compare the benefits of three different classes of SAM systems (alkylthiolates on gold).

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
