Poly (ether-block-amide) /poly (ethylene glycol)/ carbon nanotubes mixed matrix membranes have been successfully fabricated using solvent evaporation method to determine the effect of ethylene oxide groups on the performance of produced membranes. The effects of CNTs (2-8 wt%) and PEG (up to 50 wt%)were investigated in both single and mixed gas test setup in different temperature and pressure. ...

An amino acid type poly(ethylene glycol) is a useful tool for preparation of a bi- or multivalent poly(ethylene glycol) hybrid of bioactive peptides, but synthesis is problematic. The amino acid type poly(ethylene glycol) was prepared from poly(oxyethylene)diglycolic acid followed by introduction of a fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group. The resulting product could be purified easily by LH-20 colu...

in this work, poly (o-anisidine) (poa) was prepared by consecutive potential cycling in an acidic monomer solution at the surface of carbon paste electrode (cpe). nickel ions were dispersed into the polymer by immersing the electrode in niso4 solution. the prepared ni/poa/cpe was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (afm) a...

In this paper, the synthesis of novel divalent cationic lipids with poly(ethylene glycol) segments is described. The lipids consist of an unsaturated double-chain hydrophobic moiety based on 3, 4-dihydroxy benzoic acid, attached to a hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) spacer which contains a divalent cationic end group. As poly(ethylene glycol) spacers monodisperse triethylene glycol and teleche...

We report on the protein-resistant properties of glass substrates coated with novel copolymers of 2-aminoethyl methacrylate hydrochloride and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (AEM-PEG). In comparison to currently available protein-blocking polymer systems, such as poly-l-lysine-poly(ethylene glycol), silane-based poly(ethylene glycol), and poly(ethylene glycol) brushes prepared b...

Materials: Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS, 98%), aqueous ammonia (28%) were purchased from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co. Ltd.. Carbon black (99.5%, 30 nm) was purchased from Aladdin Co. Ltd.. Ethylene glycol (EG, 99%) and ethanol (99.9%) were purchased from J&K Co. Ltd.. Poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (PEGMA, Mn=360) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA, Mn=700) was purchased from Si...

An accurate mass determination method utilizing electrospray ionization mass spectrometry is described for analysis of several different types of phosphoramidites that are extremely acid-sensitive compounds. An earlier method, which applied a LiCl/acetonitrile system, was extended for this special application by using polymeric standards including poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(ethylene glyc...

This study aims to hydrophilize thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) surface via selective segregation of amphiphilic block copolymers from bulk TPU matrix, namely “inverted grafting-to” approach. To this end, hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymer chain was employed in either diblock (polycaprolactone-b-poly(ethylene (PCL-b-PEG)) or triblock (poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(propylene glycol)...

The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize particles as a drug-delivery platform for gliomas, a highly advanced and invasive stage of brain tumor with poor prognosis. Poly(aminoethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) particles were prepared by suspension polymerization and poly(aminoethyl methacrylate-co-poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) particles were prepared by emuls...

Graft copolymer networks of poly(methacrylic acid-g-ethylene glycol) exhibiting pHdependent swelling behavior due to the formation of interpolymer complexes were prepared by free radical solution polymerization of methacrylic acid and poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate. Dynamic swelling studies established the swelling/deswelling process due to hydrogen bonding. Additionally, the effects of...
