Intramolecular Reactonization of a Saponified Vinyl Acetate-Maleic Acid Copolymer

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Polyethylene‌‌ Glycol/ Dextrane Methacrylate / Maleic Acid Copolymer as a Biological Scaffold

Abstract Introduction: The use of membranes and transplant materials as scaffolds in periodontal regenerative surgeries is gaining an increasing application for restoring the structure and function of lost tissues. The present study aimed to evaluate the mechanical properties of PEG/MA (Polyethylene glycol/Maleic Acid) copolymer as a bioscaffold. Metho...

Synthesis of fenoprofen and gemfibrozil styrene-maleic acid copolymer conjugates.

Two types of polymer-drug conjugates were synthesized starting from styrene-maleic acid anhydride copolymer (SMA). Fenoprofen and gemfibrozil were chosen as model drugs because of their short plasma half lives. Both drugs were first converted to their 2-aminoethylamides, which possess free amino groups capable of reacting with SMA anhydride rings. By modifying the degree and type of substitutio...

study of ethylene/vinyl acetate transformation to ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer by nmr and dsc

hydrolysis of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer in alkaline conditions using two systems of naoh/methanol and koh/isopropanol has been studied and the formation of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer was systematically examined using nmr spectroscopy and dsc measurements. vinyl acetate weight percentage and the degree of hydrolysis were calculated from nmr spectroscopy and it is shown that hydrolys...
