Collection: Monomers and Macromonomers [Biomaterials/Biocompatible Materials Research Reagents]

Monomers and Macromonomers [Biomaterials/Biocompatible Materials Research Reagents] — covers monomers and macromonomers for synthesizing biocompatible materials, including lactones, lactides, and functional monomers for forming double network (DN) gels. This category brings together polymerization feedstocks that form the basis of hydrogel and biomedical material construction.

Monomers and Macromonomers are used by materials researchers to synthesize double network hydrogels with specific mechanical properties, as well as for ring-opening polymerization of lactones and lactides into biodegradable polyesters such as PLA. Acrylate and methacrylate monomers in this category are also used to design porous polymer networks in biomaterials and tissue engineering research.

Example products in this collection: TCI A0127 4023-65-8 trans-Aconitic Acid, TCI B5595 711-02-4 Bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-dicarboxylic Acid, TCI A0561 123-99-9 Azelaic Acid, TCI B5949 6342-17-2 1,4-Bis(acryloyl)piperazine, TCI A0235 592-88-1 Allyl Sulfide, TCI B6009 3775-90-4 2-(tert-Butylamino)ethyl Methacrylate (stabilized with MEHQ), TCI A0234 1746-13-0 Allyl Phenyl Ether, TCI B6054 4519-17-9 1,4-Bis(dimethylvinylsilyl)benzene.

Pay attention to stabilizer content such as MEHQ in reactive monomers, purity which affects polymerization kinetics, and storage conditions to prevent premature polymerization. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
