A hypoxanthine modified polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether gel was prepared by the ring opening polymerization of with in a simple sol-gel method. The structure and composition were characterized SEM, FT-IR, BET XRD. adsorption experiments ciprofloxacin at different pH, temperature, contact time initial concentration studied. results show that is porous average pore size 5.2 nm, optimum pH 5 ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of a decellularization protocol on the structure and the mechanical behavior of small-diameter (<6 mm) tibial calf arteries and veins. Calf vessels were decellularized by a detergent-enzymatic method (DEM), partially hydrolyzed with trypsin and subsequently cross-linked using poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether. Our results showed...

The diep-oxy monomer, C13H16O4 {DGE-Eu; systematic name: 2-[3-meth-oxy-4-(oxiran-2-ylmeth-oxy)benz-yl]oxirane}, was synthesized from eugenol by a three-step reaction. It consists of a 1,2,4-tris-ubstituted benzene ring substituted by diglycidyl ether, a meth-oxy group and a methyl-oxirane group. The three-membered oxirane rings are inclined to the benzene ring by 61.0 (3) and 27.9 (3)°. The met...

BACKGROUND Epoxy resins based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) are widely used as such in applications requiring chemical resistance, and also together with diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A resin (DGEBA-R). Concomitant patch test reactions to DGEBA-R and DGEBF resin (DGEBF-R) are common. Previous studies have yielded conflicting results on the frequency of independent DGEBF-R contact a...

This paper describes the acoustic properties of a range of epoxy resins prepared by photocuring that are suitable for application in piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer matching layers. Materials, based on blends of diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol A and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol diglycidyl ether, are described. Furthermore, in order to vary the elastic character of the base resin, samples contain...

Non-covalent molecular imprinting of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAA HCl) with glucose phosphate mono-sodium salt produced molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) hydrogels capable of quantitative, isomerically specific binding of glucose. By ionic association of a template molecule, glucose phosphate mono-sodium salt, to the polymer prior to covalent crosslinking, MIP hydrogels were created wi...

An efficient and easy-to-perform method was developed for immobilization of CaLB on mesoporous aminoalkyl polymer supports by bisepoxide activation. Polyacrylate resins (100-300 µm; ~50 nm pores) with different aminoalkyl functional groups (ethylamine: EA and hexylamine: HA) were modified with bisepoxides differing in the length, rigidity and hydrophobicity of the units linking the two epoxy fu...
