Robust, non-delaminating polymer coatings and hydrogels are needed for technical and biomedical applications. This study focusses on surface-attached poly(oxanorbornene) hydrogels obtained by simultaneous UV-activated crosslinking and surface-immobilization. The synthesis and copolymerization of two oxanorbornene monomers carrying the UV-crosslinkers malonic acid diazoester or benzophenone, which can both undergo UV-triggered C,H-insertion crosslinking (CHic), is presented. The crosslinking efficiency and network stability of hydrogels made from these self-crosslinkable polymers are studied and compared to the properties of poly(oxanorbornene) networks obtained by UV-triggered thiol-ene-reactions involving a low molecular weight crosslinker. Smooth, defect-free, non-delaminating hydrogel coatings were obtained by CHic, not only on laboratory model surfaces but also on a technical product.
技术和生物医学应用需要坚固、不分层的聚合物涂层和水凝胶。本研究聚焦于通过紫外线激活交联和表面固定化获得的表面附着聚(氧化降冰片烯)水凝胶。本文介绍了两种带有紫外线交联剂丙二酸重氮酯或二苯甲酮的氧化降冰片烯单体的合成与共聚,这两种交联剂均可进行紫外线引发的C-H插入交联(CHic)。研究了由这些可自交联聚合物制成的水凝胶的交联效率和网络稳定性,并与通过涉及低分子量交联剂的紫外线引发硫醇-烯反应获得的聚(氧化降冰片烯)网络的性能进行了比较。通过CHic获得了光滑、无缺陷、不分层的水凝胶涂层,不仅在实验室模型表面,而且在技术产品上也获得了这种涂层。
