摘要:
The invention relates to novel crosslinkable copolymers of formula wherein the variables are as defined in the claims. The copolymers of the invention are especially useful for the manufacture of biomedical moldings, for example ophthalmic moldings such as in particular contact lenses.
摘要:
An ophthalmic lens suited for extended-wear periods of at least one day on the eye without a clinically significant amount of corneal swelling and without substantial wearer discomfort. The lens has a balance of oxygen permeability and ion or water permeability, with the ion or water permeability being sufficient to provide good on-eye movement, such that a good tear exchange occurs between the lens and the eye. A preferred lens is a copolymerization product of a oxyperm macromer and an ionoperm monomer. The invention encompasses extended wear contact lenses, which include a core having oxygen transmission and ion transmission pathways extending from the inner surface to the outer surface.

摘要:
The present invention is concerned with a biomedical molding comprising a non-biodegradable biocompatible organic polymer comprising attached to its surface radicals of formula wherein the variables are as defined in the claims. The biomedical moldings of the invention are radiation sensitive and may be used, for example, as intraocular lens in ophthalmic surgery.
摘要:
The present invention describes a polymer and a precursor thereof; a prepolymer made essentially from a macromer that is cross-linked, for example, via its free hydroxy groups with a polyisocyanate, the macromer being made essentially from a polysiloxane and a polyol component; processes for the production of such prepolymers and polymers; the use of such polymers, for example, as artificial corneas, as molded articles, especially as contact lens material; also the use of a prepolymer or polymer for coating surfaces, especially functionalized polymer surfaces.
摘要:
The present invention describes a novel coating process that comprises the use of a functional photoinitiator, or a macroinitiator derived therefrom, in a cascade of process steps, wherein, on the one hand, a functional photoinitiator or a macroinitiator derived therefrom is covalently bonded to a carrier and, on the other hand, an oligomer or polymer forming a new surface layer is covalently bonded to the functional photoinitiator, or to the carrier modified by a functional photoinitiator, via functional groups that are co-reactive with isocyanate groups. The invention relates also to novel intermediates that are carriers to which functional photoinitiators that contain free isocyanate groups are bonded.
