Collection: Monomers for Synthetic Polymers (for DDS)

Monomers for Synthetic Polymers (for DDS) — compiles acrylate, vinyl, and lactone monomers with reactive functional groups that serve as the basic building units for synthetic polymers through addition polymerization or ring-opening polymerization. This group includes monomers stabilized with inhibitors to prevent premature polymerization.

These monomers are used in the synthesis of polymers and copolymers for drug delivery system (DDS) research, including the formation of controlled-release matrices and polymer-drug conjugates via radical polymerization or lactone ring-opening. Polymer chemists and pharmaceutical formulation researchers use variations in functional groups such as acrylates, vinyl pyrrolidone, or lactones to tune the degradation properties and hydrophilicity of the final polymer.

Example products in this collection: TCI A0142 141-32-2 Butyl Acrylate (stabilized with MEHQ), TCI C0702 502-44-3 epsilon-Caprolactone, TCI A0045 108-05-4 Vinyl Acetate Monomer (stabilized with HQ), TCI D0587 674-26-0 DL-Mevalonolactone, TCI V0039 542-28-9 delta-Valerolactone, TCI D1091 2680-03-7 N,N-Dimethylacrylamide (stabilized with MEHQ), TCI V0026 88-12-0 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (stabilized with N,N'-Di-sec-butyl-p-phenylenediamine), TCI D1785 3845-76-9 N-[3-(Dimethylamino)propyl]acrylamide (stabilized with MEHQ).

Pay attention to the type and concentration of the stabilizer inhibitor (MEHQ, hydroquinone) added to the monomers, as they affect the rate of polymerization initiation and the storage life before use. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
