Oxide powder mixture with poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA) and added polyethylene glycol (PEG) as plasticizer

Preparation and Property Evaluation of Conductive Hydrogel Using Poly (Vinyl Alcohol)/Polyethylene Glycol/Graphene Oxide for Human Electrocardiogram Acquisition

Conductive hydrogel combined with Ag/AgCl electrode is widely used in the acquisition of bio-signals. However, the high adhesiveness of current commercial hydrogel causes human skin allergies and pruritus easily after wearing hydrogel for electrodes for a long time. In this paper, a novel conductive hydrogel with good mechanical and conductive performance was prepared using polyvinyl alcohol (P...

Surface Adsorption of Polyethylene Glycol and Polyvinyl Alcohol with Variable Molecular Weights on Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles

Immunogenicity of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)

Covalent attachment of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to active proteins (PEGylation technology) successfully generated several FDA-approved compounds, including four blockbusters, which are considered non immunogenic. However, PEG antibodies and intolerance to the infusion were reported in some patients with gout treated with pegloticase, a PEG-uricase recently approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Ad...

Graphene Oxide Reinforced Poly(vinyl Alcohol) Nanocomposites

The first major success of polymer nanocomposites, where the filler has at least one dimension in the nanoscale, was reported by Kojima, Usuki et al. [1] from the Toyota Central R&D group. They demonstrated that nylon6/clay nanocomposites showed significant improvement in the mechanical and the thermal properties. Since then, works on the polymer nanocomposites have been conducted on a wide var...

Polyethylene Oxide (PEO) and Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Polymer Sieving Matrix for RNA Capillary Electrophoresis

The selection of sieving polymer for RNA fragments separation by capillary electrophoresis is imperative. We investigated the separation of RNA fragments ranged from 100 to 10,000 nt in polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) solutions with different molecular weight and different concentration. We found that the separation performance of the small RNA fragments (<1000 nt) was im...
