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 bloodstream1. End-group modified poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) Potential substitute for poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone). Sometimes it is used as an adhesion promoter in coatings. This is also sometimes used in heat sealing and remoistenable hot-melt adhesives. N-propionyl substituted linear polyethylenimine |
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. |
Packaging: | 5 g in glass bottle |
