Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-dye copolymers —The color additives formed by reaction of one or more of the foUowiag reactive dyes with poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate), so that the sulfate group (or groups) or chlorine substituent of the dye is replaced by an ether linkage to poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (see Dyes, reactive). The dyes that may be used alone or ia combination are... 

The mixture of deprotected amino acid derivatives in solution was then immobilized onto a polymeric solid support, typically activated 5-)xm macroporous poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) beads, to afford the chiral stationary phases with a multiplicity of selectors. Although the use of columns... 

ABA type poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (HEMA) and PDMS copolymers were synthesized by the coupling reactions of preformed a,co-isocyanate terminated PDMS oligomers and amine-terminated HEMA macromonomers312). Polymerization reactions were conducted in DMF solution at 0 °C. Products were purified by precipitation in diethyl ether to remove unreacted PDMS oligomers. After dissolving in DMF/toluene mixture, copolymers were reprecipitated in methanol/water mixture to remove unreacted HEMA oligomers. Microphase separated structures were observed under transmission electron microscope, using osmium tetroxide stained thin copolymer films. 

Some tailor-made homopolymers can serve as starting points for chemical modifications to yield new species. Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and poly(glyceryl methacrylate) 16), already mentioned, are obtained upon hydrolysis of the OH-protecting groups that allow the anionic polymerization to proceed. Another example is the acid hydrolysis of poly(t-butyl methacrylate), a reaction which proceeds easily to completion, yielding poly(methacrylic acid) of known degree of polymerization and narrow molecular weight distribution 44 45).

Implants in the rabbit corneas exhibited no observable inflammatory characteristics over a period of 6 weeks. Compared to other previously tested polymers, the inertness of these polyanhydrides rivals that of the biocompatible poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. Histological examination of the removed corneas also revealed the absence of inflammatory cells (21)...

Polymeric particles can be constructed from a number of different monomers or copolymer combinations. Some of the more common ones include polystyrene (traditional latex particles), poly(styrene/divinylbenzene) copolymers, poly(styrene/acrylate) copolymers, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA), poly(vinyltoluene), poly(styrene/butadiene) copolymers, and poly(styrene/vinyltoluene) copolymers. In addition, by mixing into the polymerization reaction combinations of functional monomers, one can create reactive or functional groups on the particle surface for subsequent coupling to affinity ligands. One example of this is a poly(styrene/acrylate) copolymer particle, which creates carboxylate groups within the polymer structure, the number of which is dependent on the ratio of monomers used in the polymerization process. 

Immunoaffinity procedures have also been developed to selectively extract corticosteroids from different sample matrices. Thus, Seymour et al. demonstrated the higher efficiency of the immunoaffinity methods compared with the conventional extraction procedures using organic solvents [177]. Immunosorbents have also been used for online procedures followed by HLPC-UV [178, 179], HPLC-APCI-MS [179,180], GC-MS [176,181], or capillary electrophoresis [182]. Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (HEMA) was evaluated as a support material for the anti-dexamethasone antibodies used in IAC. The online IAC-HPLC-MS allowed determination of dexamethasone and flumethasone in equine urine with LODs in the range 3-4 ng mL-1 [180]. The cross-reactivity values obtained in the ELISA and the recoveries of an IAC-HPLC procedure are presented in Table 7. Bagnati et al. developed an immunoaffinity extraction...

Immobilization of the colloidal catalyst on resins was studied in order to use them repeatedly as stable solid catalyst. The citric acid reduction of poly(hydroxyethyl-methacrylate) containing H2PtCl4 yielded immobilized Pt colloids which are dispersed in that polymer57. It could be used as H2 generating catalyst repeatedly without activity loss in the system of EDTA-Ru(bpy)3 + -MV2 +. ... 

A series of polymine-graft copolymers of styrene [92-95] and hydroxyethyl methacrylate [96-98] were found to form a microdomain structure and exhibit unique biomedical behavior at the interface with living cells, such as blood platelets and lymphocytes. The most intensive studies were made with poly(hydroxyethyl methacryIate)-0ra/t-polyamine copolymers (HA) ... 

The preparation of cellulose copolymers with vinyl monomers, which have functional groups that are hydrophilic in nature, has given textile products with improved soil release properties. For example, as shown in Figure 5, crosslinked cellulose-poly (methacrylic acid) copolymer fabrics exhibited both increased oily and aqueous soil release during washing compared with the crosslinked control fabrics. However, for oily soil, when softeners were added to the wash water, this improvement in soil release decreased. Crosslinked cellulose-poly (hydroxyethyl methacrylate) copolymer fabrics exhibited no improvement in oily soil release and only slight improvement in aqueous soil release compared... 

Hydrogels Hydrogels consist of a cross-linked polymer system or a meshlike structure that is flexible and can swell in the presence of water, producing a hydrophilic surface and masking the components below. The most widely used hydrogels consist of poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), or poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and tend to have reduced interaction with tissue.22 31 44 53 55...
