Future advances of photoresponsive materials essentially depend on our knowledge about how the substrates, and typically their Tg and polarity, affect photochromic properties. Here, these were followed in two separate...

Purpose. To evaluate the feasibility of utilizing a system of SMP acrylates for a thrombectomy device by determining an optimal crosslink density that provides both adequate recovery stress for blood clot removal and sufficient strain capacity to enable catheter delivery. Methods. Four thermoset acrylic copolymers containing benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) and bisphenol A ethoxylate diacrylate (Mn∼512, BPA) were designed with differing thermomechanical properties. Finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to ensure that the materials were able to undergo the strains imposed by crimping, and fabricated devices were subjected to force-monitored crimping, constrained recovery, and bench-top thrombectomy. Results. Devices with 25 and 35 mole% BPA exhibited the highest recovery stress and the highest brittle response as they broke upon constrained recovery. On the contrary, the 15 mole% BPA devices endured all testing and their recovery stress (5 kPa) enabled successful bench-top thrombectomy in 2/3 times, compared to 0/3 for the devices with the lowest BPA content. Conclusion. While the 15 mole% BPA devices provided the best trade-off between device integrity and performance, other SMP systems that offer recovery stresses above 5 kPa without increasing brittleness to the point of causing device failure would be more suitable for this application.

AbstractThis article describes simple preparation methods of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/synthetic montmorillonite nanocomposites by single-step insitu polymerizations. Compatibility between PMMA and the silicate was ensured by an addition of (3-acrylamidepropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (AAPTMA). The work also compares how different synthetic routes, namely emulsion and solution polymerization, affect the structure as well as thermal and mechanical properties of obtained nanocomposites. The results of structural investigations clearly show, that both the techniques lead to intercalated nanocomposites, but emulsion polymerization allows more effective deflocculating and intercalating of the clay with acrylic copolymers. The addition of small amounts of layered silicates causes an increase in thermal stability and stiffness of the materials. It is demonstrated that at 5 wt. % of the filler, the temperature of 10 % weight loss was shifted up by nearly 50 K in comparison to the neat PMMA. In the same sample, the Young’s modulus of the material was found to be increased by 26 %.

Abstract Background: Intraoperative acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) transient clouding of several kinds of hydrophilic IOLs have been reported due to temperature changes. However, we ignored the particularity of its material and the handling methods. Case presentation: We present four cases of acute clouding of hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs). Four patients underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery with implantation of L-312, 809M, and 839M IOLs, respectively. The IOLs became opaque in varying degrees during surgery. Lens replacement was performed immediately in one case, while the cloudy IOLs were remained in the other three cases. Postoperatively, all IOLs recovered transparency. Conclusions:Temperature fluctuation was the cause of the acute opacification of these IOLs made of hydrophilic acrylic copolymers, which reminds us of attaching importance to the temperature of IOL storage and delivery in winter months. Keywords: Opacification, transient, temperature, material, cataract.
