산소투과성이 뛰어난 Hydrogel 콘택트렌즈 합성

Polymerization of Hydrogel Contact Lens with High Oxygen Transmissibility

Diisocynate를 HEMA(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate)와 DBTDL(Dibutylitin dilaurate) 촉매 하에서 반응시킨 후 다시 고 산소 투과성 특성을 가지는 bis(hydroxyalkyl)terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane)를 반응시켜 Acrylate-PDMS(Polydimethylsiloxane)-Urethane Prepolymer를 합성하였다. HEMA(2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate)는 중합 가능한 prepolymer를 만들기 위해서 사용하였으며, Urethane의 도입은 탄성이 좋고 산소투과성을 높이기 위해 사용하였다. 이들의 반응은 FT-IR로 확인하였으며, 이 고분자 재료는 고 산소투과성 하이드로 젤 렌즈의 원료로 사용될 것이다.

Acrylate -PDMS(Polydimethylsiloxane)-Urethane Prepolymer is synthesized through treating diisocynate, HEMA(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) and bis(hydroxyalkyl)terminated Poly(dimethylsiloxane) having high oxygen permeability under the DBTDL(Dibutylitin dilaurate) catalyst. Modification of HEMA on bis(hydroxyalkyl)terminated Poly(dimethylsiloxane) is to be able to polymerize with other contact lens materials. And modification of urethane on bis(hydroxyalkyl)terminated Poly(dimethylsiloxane) is to increase elastic property and oxygen transmissibility. This material is analyzed by FT-IR and also will be used to make hydrogel contact lens.
