Methoxyl-capped MQ silicone resin (MMQ) was first synthesized by the hydrosilylation of vinyl-containing MQ silicone resin and trimethoxysilane and then used in condensed room-temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber as a self-reinforced cross-linker. Results show that modified silicone rubber exhibits good light transmission. Compared with unmodified silicone rubber, the hardness, tensile strength and elongation of MMQ at the break are increased by 26.4 A, 2.68 MPa and 65.1%, respectively. In addition, the characteristic temperature of 10% mass loss is delayed from 353.5 °C to 477.1 °C, the temperature at maximum degradation rate is also delayed from 408.9 °C to 528.4 °C and the residual mass left at 800 °C is increased from 1.2% to 27.7%. These improved properties are assigned to the synergistic effect of the rigid structure of MMQ, the formation of a dense cross-linking structure in polymers and the uniform distribution of MMQ cross-linking agent in RTV silicone rubber.

Incompletely condensed tetra-silanol-phenyl-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (TOPO) was synthesized first and then copolymerized with hydroxy terminated polydimethylsiloxane (HPDMS) as a cross linking agent to prepare room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber (TOPO–PDMS).

Carboxymethyl cellulose/poly(acrylamide) (CMC/Amm) hydrogels were synthesized by the chemical cross-linking method. Ammonium persulfate used as an initiator, while aluminium sulfate used as a cross-linking agent. The structure and morphology of the hydrogels were characterized by FTIR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. The swelling behaviour of the hydrogels can be studied by using acids (CH3COOH, HCl and HClO4) and also in the pH of the buffer solutions at different temperature (room temperature, 30 and 37 ºC) was studied. Swelling of hydrogels increased with an increase in the concentration of aluminum sulfate up to 20 %, above 20 % it has found to be decreased. The effect of four series of cationic different concentrated salt solutions on the swelling had found to be the following order K+ > Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+.

The PEGA resin, a beaded polyethylene glycol dimethylacrylamide copolymer, was evaluated as an affinity support for the purification of carbohydrate-binding macromolecules, namely, the cation-independent mannosyl phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) and a polyclonal antibody directed against a Streptococcus Group A oligosaccharide. Two polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives, a di-acryloylated PEG1900derivative or a longer di-acryloylated PEG4000derivative, were used as cross-linkers. The longer cross-linker was synthesized in four steps from polyethylene glycol 4000. The mannosyl 6-phosphate (M6P)-containing immunoaffinity columns were prepared through the inverse suspension radical copolymerization of the corresponding allyl glycoside with acrylamide and the PEG cross-linker. The resin with the shorter cross-linker (PEG1900derivative) had a 6.3% molar cross-linking while that with the longer cross-linker (PEG4000derivative) had a 3.8% molar cross-linking. For the Streptococcus Group A trisaccharide-containing immunoaffinity columns, three PEGA affinity supports bearing free amino groups were prepared and subsequently substituted with a trisaccharide activated as its squarate adduct. While one resin contained the shorter cross-linker PEG1900and had a 3% molar cross-linking, the other two resins contained the longer cross-linker PEG4000 with a molar cross-linking of 5% and 3%, respectively. In affinity chromatographic studies, the M6P-containing columns were ineffective in retaining the cation-independent mannosyl phosphate receptor (CI-MPR, ~ 215kDa), whereas antibody (~ 150kDa) retention was observed with two of the three Streptococcus Group A trisaccharide-containing immunoaffinity columns. Key words: PEGA resins, immunoaffinity supports, carbohydrate ligands, antibody purification.

Several cements are used as biomaterials. Biopolymers such as chitosan and collagen exhibit excellent biocompatibility and can be used in the remodeling of bone tissue. The cement must have high mechanical strength and compatibility with original tissue. In this context, the objective of this study was to extract, characterize and cross-link collagen from bovine tendon, forlater associate it with chitosan and calcium phosphate to obtain cements for bone regeneration. Glutaraldehyde was used as cross-linker in 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 and 10% concentration. Infrared analysis confirmed the presence of functional groups characteristic of collagen, whereas the capacity of water absorption decreased with the increasing of cross-linking degree. Denaturation temperatures of collagen samples were obtained by Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Scanning Electron Microscopy showed the fiber structure characteristics of collagen, which were more organized for high degree of cross-linking samples.

Abstract Na+ montmorillonite (MMT) was modified with benzyldimethyltetradecylammonium chloride (B13) and further with (3-mercaptopropyl)triethoxysilane and vinyltrimethoxysilane to prepare B13-MMT, mercaptomethylorthosilicate modified MMT (MTMO), and vinyltrimethoxysilane modified MMT (VTMO), respectively. The pristine and modified clays were compounded with an HTV-type silicone rubber (GP-30®), and the physical properties and morphology of the resulting rubber composites were examined. Both HTV/MTMO and HTV/VTMO exhibited an intercalated/exfoliated coexisting morphology, but the degree of exfoliation of the former composite was higher than that of the latter. Moreover, the thermal stability, as assessed by the onset temperature of thermal degradation, as well as the tensile stress, elongation at the break, and tear strength of HTV/MTMO was higher than those of HTV/B13-MMT and HTV/VTMO. However, the cross-linking density of HTV/MTMO was the lowest among the composites examined because the thiol groups of MTMO extinguished and abstracted the radicals formed by the curing agent. Accordingly, the improved mechanical and thermal properties of HTV/MTMO were attributed to the enhanced interactions between HTV and MTMO due to the chemical reaction between the thiol groups of MTMO and the vinyl groups of HTV.
