Oriented polymeric sheets exhibiting dichroism and articles containing the same.
(2007-12-20)
Provided is an oriented polymeric sheet comprising a photochromic-dichroic material, wherein the sheet exhibits dichroism in an activated state. Also provided is a multilayer composite comprising at least a support layer ...
Investigation of a novel freeze-thaw process for the production of drug delivery hydrogels
(Springer, 2005-12)
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a water-soluble, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, which has been widely applied in biomedical fields. In this paper, novel physically cross-linked hydrogels composed of PVA and comprising ...
Synthesis and characterisation of novel n-vinyl pyrrolidinone/acrylic acid copolymers for use in biomedical applications.
(2006)
The aim of this study was to develop a novel hydrophilic polymer for use in biomedical applications. The polymers synthesised in this work were based on the monomers N-vinyl pyrrolidinone (NVP) and acrylic acid (AA) and ...
Preparation of a novel freeze thawed poly (vinly alcohol) composite hydrogel for drug delivery applications
(Elsevier, 2007-09)
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a water-soluble, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, which has been widely applied in biomedical fields. In this paper, novel physically cross-linked hydrogels composed of PVA and comprising ...
Development of novel monolithic matrices for drug delivery using conventional and non-conventional polymer processing technologies.
(2007)
The aim of this study was to produce a range of polymer based monolithic matrices
for controlled oral drug delivery using conventional polymer processing equipment. Poly
(ethylene oxide) (PEO) was chosen as the primary ...
