摘要:
Liquid hemostatic coating materials comprise a cyanoacrylate monomer and a solvent system comprising a volatile, non-reactive liquid that is non-stinging and non-irritating to a user. The material forms a coating or bandage in the form of a film that when applied and adhered to a surface or to the skin of a user inhibits the application surface from adhering to another surface.
摘要:
An ophthalmic device is disclosed that is a polymerization product of a monomeric mixture comprising (a) a major amount of a non-silicone-containing hydrophilic monomer; (b) a hydrophobic monomer; and (c) a crosslinking agent, wherein the ophthalmic device has an equilibrium water content of at least about 70 weight percent and further wherein the ophthalmic device has an evaporative dehydration barrier layer on the surface thereof. A method for the mitigation of evaporative corneal dehydration employing the high water content ophthalmic device is also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention provides copolymer having repeating units based on polyoxyalkylene radicals, polysiloxane radicals and perfluorocyclobutane radicals. The copolymers are useful as biomedical devices such as contact lenses or intraocular lenses.
摘要:
A silicone pressure sensitive adhesive with amphiphilic copolymers for maintaining adhesion in a moist environment. The amphiphilic copolymers for silicone adhesives include at least one silicone moiety and at least one hydrophilic segment. Such adhesives are applicable to securing medical devices to human skin.
摘要:
Multi-armed macromonomers containing multiple side chains attached to a siloxy-containing core terminated on each end with one or more first substantially linear polysiloxane radicals having a polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated-containing terminal group, wherein each side chain comprises a second substantially linear polysiloxane radical having a polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated-containing terminal group are disclosed. Biomedical devices such as contact lenses formed from the multi-armed macromonomers are also disclosed.
摘要:
Biomedical devices are provided herein which are formed from a polymerization product of a monomeric mixture comprising (a) one or more esterified aminoalcohol monomers; and (b) one or more biomedical device-forming monomers.
摘要:
The present invention relates to polymeric compositions useful in the manufacture of biocompatible medical devices. More particularly, the present invention relates to certain hydrophilic monomers capable of polymerization to form polymeric compositions having desirable physical characteristics useful in the manufacture of ophthalmic devices. The polymeric compositions comprise polymerized hydrophilic siloxanyl monomers.

摘要:
Hydrophilic, arylsiloxy-containing monomers and macromonomers have at least a terminal hydrophilic group attached to an arylsiloxy group. The aryl groups attached to siloxy groups can be substituted with other hydrophilic groups. Polymers comprising such hydrophilic, arylsiloxy-containing monomers and macromonomers avoid or reduce the risk of forming vacuoles of absorbed water. Furthermore, such polymers have high refractive index, and, thus, are advantageously used for making ophthalmic devices, such as intraocular lenses, contact lenses, corneal rings, corneal inlays, and keratoprostheses.
