1. Preparation of Biomedical Materials

Used in the synthesis of anticoagulant coating materials (such as vascular stent coatings), tissue engineering scaffolds, and drug sustained-release carriers. The PEG segment improves the biocompatibility and cell compatibility of the materials. For example, it is copolymerized with N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) to prepare temperature-sensitive hydrogels for controlled drug release, and copolymerized with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) to prepare micelles for loading hydrophobic anticancer drugs.

2. Polymer Surface Modification

Used to modify the surface of medical polymer materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polystyrene (PS) through graft polymerization reactions, improving hydrophilicity, anti-fouling ability, and reducing bioadhesion.

3. Functional Coatings and Adhesives

Used as a comonomer in the preparation of water-based coatings and environmentally friendly adhesives, providing products with good flexibility, weather resistance, and adhesion, and applied in the construction and packaging fields.

4. Daily Chemicals and Personal Care Products

Used in the synthesis of polymer emulsifiers and humectants for cosmetics, utilizing the hydrophilicity of the PEG segment to improve the moisturizing effect and skin feel of the products, and exhibiting high biological safety.

5. Synthesis of Polycarboxylate Superplasticizers

It is an active monomer for polycarboxylate superplasticizers. The prepared superplasticizers have a high water reduction rate, good slump retention, and excellent compatibility with cement and other admixtures. It can reduce the adiabatic temperature rise of concrete, facilitating the application of large amounts of industrial waste in concrete.

6. Hydrogel and Functional Polymer Synthesis

Used in the preparation of hydrogels. Free radical polymerization can be used to precisely control the crosslinking density and mechanical properties of the hydrogels. It can also be used to synthesize other functional polymer materials, such as polymers with special responsiveness.

7. Biosensor Preparation

Participates in the preparation of sensitive membrane materials for biosensors, utilizing its biocompatibility and specific reactivity to improve the sensitivity and stability of the sensors, and used in biomolecule detection, etc.
