摘要:
Vesicles made from amphiphilic copolymers are disclosed. The amphiphilic copolymers can be ABA copolymers, where one of A and B is hydrophilic and the other is hydrophobic. AB copolymers can also be used. The copolymers may be crosslinked to form nanocapsules. Crosslinking can be accomplished using a variety of methods, including end to end polymerization of copolymers having terminal unsaturated groups. Molecules, such as membrane proteins, can be incorporated into the wall of the vesicles or nanocapsules.

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:
A protection circuit for an HID dimming circuit is provided. A resistive component limits the initial current after a relay closes and current flows from a charged capacitor to a second capacitor. An inductive component limits the rate of change of current through the circuit. A voltage limited device limits voltage across the contacts of a solid state relay. The circuit is preferably formed in a small module that is adapted to be plugged into an HID lighting device.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a molding, which comprises the following steps:a) providing at least one prepolymer comprising one or more crosslinkable groups, wherein the prepolymer is an amphiphilic segmented copolymer comprising at least one hydrophobic segment A and one hydrophilic segment B;b) preparing a mesophase of the prepolymer which is at least partly bicontinuous;c) introducing the mesophase obtained into an ophthalmic mold;d) triggering of the crosslinking; ande) opening the mold such that the molding can be removed. The process of the invention is particularly suited for the manufacture of membranes and ophthalmic moldings such as contact lenses.
