Application

This Poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) polymer is amorphous and water soluble with good temperature stability. Jordan and coworkers showed biocompatibility, no accumulation in tissue, and rapid clearance from the bloodstream. End-group modified poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)s have been conjugated to peptides, and were shown as versatile alternatives to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) for both protein and small drug conjugation.

Potential substitute for poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone). Adhesion promoter in coatings. Heat sealing and remoistenable hot-melt adhesive

Features and Benefits

Nonionic, water-soluble thermoplastic. Better heat stability than poly(vinyl alcohol). Good melt flow, shear stability and Newtonian characteristics. Water is a room temperature Theta solvent.

Physical form

N-propionyl substituted linear polyethylenimine

Storage Class

11 - Combustible Solids

This paper reports an FT-IR study of blends of poly(mono-n-alkyl itaconates) with poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA) and poly(ethyloxazoline) (PEOX). Strong hydrogen bonding has been found, and both polybases have shown similar acceptor strengths. Derivative techniques show asymmetric profiles for the free carbonyl

Polymeric micelles based on amphiphilic block copolymers of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOz) and poly(epsilon -caprolactone) (PCL) were prepared in an aqueous phase. The loading of paclitaxel into PEtOz-PCL micelles was confirmed by 1H-NMR spectra. Paclitaxel was efficiently loaded into PEtOz-PCL micelles using
