Inorganic–organic hybrid biomaterials made with star polymer poly(methyl methacrylate-co-3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate) and silica, which show promising mechanical properties, are 3D printed as bone substitutes for the first time, by direct ink writing of sol. Three different inorganic:organic ratios methacrylate)-star-SiO2 inks pore channels in range 100–200 µm. Mechanical properties ...

The design of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for the specific binding hydrophobic molecules (mitotane) was investigated by considering monomers and cross-linking agents with variable character, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate lauryl as functional monomers, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate 1,6-hexanediol agents. MIPs were bound to a porous silica support means radical transfer react...

We study systematically the topography behavior of PHEMA-b-PMMA block as a function of the PHEMA and PMMA block lengths after selectively collapsing the top (PMMA) block by using surface-anchored assemblies of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-b-methyl methacrylate), PHEMA-b-PMMA, block copolymer with orthogonally varying lengths of each block. Our experimental results are in excellent qualitati...
