摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the preparation of a superabsorbent polymer hydrogel, comprising the steps of (i) crosslinking a 3% overall aqueous solution of carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt and hydroxyethylcellulose with 5% carbodiimide, in the presence of an acid catalyst; (ii) washing the gel obtained at least once by swelling in a polar organic solvent; and (iii) drying the gel by phase inversion in a non-solvent for cellulose. The invention further concerns the superabsorbent hydrogels obtainable by said method and the uses thereof.

Provided are orthopedic fasteners and replacements such as nails, screws, pins, hip and knee replacements, etc., coated with hydrogels and other biocompatible/biodegradable materials which expand in the presence of liquids. Swelling of such coatings causes the fastener or replacement to be securely fixed into position once inserted into bone material. Useful coating materials include methacrylates, hyaluronic acid esters, and crosslinked esters of hyaluronic acid resulting from the esterification of hyaluronic acid with polyhydric alcohols. Also provided is a method for fixing a bone or bone replacement in position employing such coated orthopedic fasteners or replacements.
摘要:
A superabsorbent polysaccharide can be obtained by crosslinking a polysaccharide or derivative thereof with at least 1% by weight of a flexible spacer having a chain length of at least 9 chain atoms and having terminal activated coupling groups. The flexible spacer may comprise a polyalkyleneglycol with a molecular weight from about 400 to 10,000. The coupling groups may be provided by divinyl sulphone units.
摘要:
A method of producing a soybean-based biomaterial which is suitable for use in a biomedical product, the method comprising: defatting soy flour; either prior to or at the same time as, performing a solvent extraction; to produce a biomaterial comprising variable levels of soy proteins, carbohydrates and isoflavones. The resulting biomaterials have a range of biomedical uses and are particularly desirable because of their isoflavone content. Examples of biomedical products containing the biomaterials include wound dressings; scaffolds for tissue engineering; fillers or implants for use in surgery; temporary barriers for use in dental or surgical procedures or to prevent post-surgical tissue adherence; carriers for the delivery of drugs, bioactive peptides or plasmids; anti-inflammatory agents; coatings for wound dressings or for dental, medical, surgical or veterinary devices or implants; and compositions for soothing skin or gum irritation.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of continuous silver wires having micrometric or sub-micrometric diameter comprising a step of thermal decomposition of silver dodecyl-mercaptide in the presence of metallic aluminum.
摘要:
The method for the production of polymer/metal or metal sulphide composites comprises the stages of: preparing a dispersion of a metal mercaptide in a polymer, the metal of the mercaptide being selected from the group comprising the transition metals and earth metals, and heating the said dispersion so as to cause thermal decomposition of the mercaptide and obtain the corresponding metal or metal sulphide in the form of inclusions in a polymer matrix.
摘要:
A polyelectrolyte membrane includes at least one syndiotactic styrenic polymer or copolymer in its clathrate form. The syndiotactic styrenic polymer or copolymer in its clathrate form is syndiotactic polystyrene. The polyelectrolyte membrane has a good electrical conductivity as well as good mechanical properties. This type of membrane is used for fuel cells and similar electrochemical applications.
