Carbon Nanofiber Applications & Properties

Pyrograf®-III vapor-grown carbon nanofibers are within the class of materials termed multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and are produced by the floating catalyst method.

Nanoclays in Multi-Functional Composites

Nanoclays are clay minerals optimized for use in clay nanocomposites– multi-functional material systems with several property enhancements targeted for a particular application.

Universal (Switchable) RAFT Agents for Well-Defined Block Copolymers

Universal (Switchable) RAFT agents allow for the polymerization of both less activated and more activated monomers and are ideal for the synthesis of well-defined block copolymers.

The Progress in Development of Dental Restorative Materials

With dentists placing nearly 100 million dental fillings into patients′ teeth annually in the U.S. alone, polymeric composite restoratives account for a very large share of the biomaterials market.

Hexafluoroalcohol-functionalized Methacrylate Monomers for Lithographic/nanopatterning materials

To keep pace with Moore′s Law, there is a continuing need in the semiconductor industry to achieve higher circuit density in microelectronic devices.

Block copolymer synthesis using a commercially available nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization (NMP) initiator

Mesoporous Materials Synthesis

Mesoporous materials are formed by a self-assembly process from combined solutions of sol-gel precursors (e.g., metal alkoxides) and structure-directing amphiphiles, usually block-copolymers or surfactants.

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based Smart Surfaces for Cell Sheet Tissue Engineering

Tissue engineering has become a key therapeutic tool in the treatment of damaged or diseased organs and tissues, such as blood vessels and urinary bladders.

Thermal Transitions of Homopolymers: Glass Transition & Melting Point

Literature values for the glass transition temperature, (Tg), and melting temperature, (Tm), are given for the more common homopolymers.

Introduction of Terminal Azide and Alkyne Functionalities in Polymers

Click chemistry, and the copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) in particular, is a powerful new synthetic tool in polymer chemistry and material science.

Protein- and Peptide- Polymer Conjugates by RAFT Polymerization

The modification of biomacromolecules, such as peptides and proteins, through the attachment of synthetic polymers has led to a new family of highly advanced biomaterials with enhanced properties.

Versatile Cell Culture Scaffolds via Bio-orthogonal Click Reactions

Devising biomaterial scaffolds that are capable of recapitulating critical aspects of the complex extracellular nature of living tissues in a threedimensional (3D) fashion is a challenging requirement in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

High-Purity Monomers & Polymers for Ophthalmic Applications

We offer a continuously expanding selection of high-purity monomers and polymers for ophthalmic applications, along with a full range of initiators, crosslinkers, dyes, and solvents.

Initiator/Stabilizer FAQs
