Application

Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate can be used as a cross-linker in thepreparation of:

  • A terpolymer system, poly(acrylonitrile-co-Ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate-co-vinylbenzyl chloride), which is applicable as a sorbentin pharmaceuticals adsorption.
  • PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) based hydrogel by free-radicalcopolymerization. These PVA polymer networks can be used as drug deliverysystems.
It can also be used asa monomer in the preparation of swellable and non-swellable poly(ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate/acrylic acid) copolymer microspheres through suspensionpolymerization.

General description

Ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate (EGDMA) is a diester formed by condensation of two equivalents of methacrylic acid and one equivalent of ethylene glycol.

The cytotoxicity of 2D graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) is highly important for engineered applications and environmental health. However, the isotropic orientation of GBNs, most notably graphene oxide (GO), in previous experimental studies obscured the interpretation of cytotoxic contributions of nanosheet edges.
