Heat of polymerization of Bis-GMA-TEDMA monomer mixtures, corresponding to the conceivable constituents of composite resins, was evaluated from the area of exothermic peak in DSC curves, and also the conversions of polymerization were calculated from the ratio of the heat of polymerization for each monomer mixture to an assumed one at 100% conversion. The effects of composition of monomers and ...

The carbonatation of semi-crystalline [ethylene – glycidyl methacrylate]-based polymers (Lotader® grades) was achieved using carbon dioxide as reagent and quaternary ammonium salts organocatalysts to form cyclic carbonate moieties on...

Polymeric vesicles constructed from cyclodextrin- and azobenzene-grafted poly(glycidyl methacrylate)s showed excellent stability owing to the multiple host-guest complexation. Upon culturing in Na2S2O4-contained buffer solution, cargo-loaded vesicles disassembled, for potential applications in colon-specific drug delivery.

The spatially controlled synthesis of poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) monolithic stationary phases in polyimide coated fused silica capillaries by visible light induced radical polymerisation using a three-component initiator and a 660 nm light emitting diode (LED) as a light source is presented here.

The copolymers of glycidyl methacrylate/a-methyl styrene were synthesized. The quantitative C{H}-NMR spectroscopy was used to determine the copolymer compositions. The distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer, C-H heteronuclear single quantum coherence and total correlation spectroscopy were used for the complete spectral assignment of C{H}and H-NMR spectra.

Using magnetic particles as a solid-phase extraction system is the most frequently used micro-technique for DNA isolation. Particles with a complete covering of magnetic cores by a polymer are hence preferred. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used for the evaluation of the polymer coating efficiency of hydrophilic magnetic poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacryla...

The purpose of this study was to analyze the behavior in water as well as the mechanical and surface properties of experimental composites designed for dental restoration. Studied materials were composed of a visible-light-cured monomer mixture as a matrix (bisphenol-alpha-glycidyl methacrylate with triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate or hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and either micrometric or nanomet...
