摘要:
Functionalized copolymers of isoolefins and conjugated diolefins, methods of preparing the copolymers, and their use as compatibilizers are disclosed. The diolefin monomer units of the co-polymer are modified at the C—C double bond along the backbone of the copolymer to include an oxygen containing functional group such as epoxide, ester or alcohol. The functionalized copolymers improve the wettability of a non-hydrophilic surface towards hydrophilic polymer and allows for the formation of homogenous layers of the hydrophilic polymers. In particular, the spreading of a hydrophilic polymer on a non-hydrophilic substrate is facilitated by applying the co-polymers as an interfacial layer between the two incompatible materials. The resulting coated substrates exhibit resistance to protein adsorption and cell growth after grafting. The co-polymers are especially suited in the coating of biomedical devices where a high degree of uniformity of the coated surface is required.

摘要:
The present invention relates to arborescent polymers comprising isoolefins and styrenic monomers, as well as processes for making same. In particular, the invention relates to highly branched block copolymers comprising an arborescent core with a high glass-transition temperature (Tg) and branches attached to the core terminated in polymer endblock segments with a low Tg. The copolymers of the invention desirably exhibit thermoplastic elastomeric properties and, in one embodiment, are desirably suited to biomedical applications.
