متن کاملThermothickening in solutions of telechelic associating polymers and cyclodextrins.
Telechelic associating polymers (hydrophilic ethoxylated backbone, hydrophobic n-alkyl end-groups) form viscous solutions in water due to associations between the hydrophobes. The addition of alpha-, beta-, or gamma-cyclodextrin (CD) substantially reduces the solution viscosity because the CD molecules envelop and sequester the hydrophobes in their hydrophobic cavities. The present paper explor...
متن کاملThermal fluctuations in chemically cross-linked polymers of cyclodextrins.
The extent and nature of thermal fluctuations in the innovative class of cross-linked polymers called cyclodextrin nanosponges (CDNS) are investigated, on the picosecond time scale, through elastic and quasielastic neutron scattering experiments. Nanosponges are complex 3D polymer networks where covalent bonds connecting different cyclodextrin (CD) units and intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen-...
متن کاملInclusion and functionalization of polymers with cyclodextrins: current applications and future prospects.
The numerous hydroxyl groups available in cyclodextrins are active sites that can form different types of linkages. They can be crosslinked with one another, or they can be derivatized to produce monomers that can form linear or branched networks. Moreover, they can form inclusion complexes with polymers and different substrates, modifying their physicochemical properties. This review shows the...
متن کاملElectrospun Fibers of Cyclodextrins and Poly(cyclodextrins).
Cyclodextrins (CDs) can endow electrospun fibers with outstanding performance characteristics that rely on their ability to form inclusion complexes. The inclusion complexes can be blended with electrospinnable polymers or used themselves as main components of electrospun nanofibers. In general, the presence of CDs promotes drug release in aqueous media, but they may also play other roles such ...
