Polymer Films - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18271547 titled 'Polymer Films
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a polymer film containing anionic groups and specific amounts of two types of crosslinking agents, one of which is free from fluoro groups.
- The polymer film contains anionic groups and crosslinking agents.
- The crosslinking agents include one without fluoro groups and a non-ionic crosslinking agent.
- The crosslinking agent without fluoro groups has a specific chemical structure represented by Formula (I) in the patent application.
- The polymer film contains 0.008 to 25 mg/g of each of the crosslinking agents.
Potential Applications
The technology described in the patent application could have potential applications in:
- Biomedical devices
- Drug delivery systems
- Coatings for medical implants
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the following problems:
- Enhancing the stability and durability of polymer films
- Improving the performance of biomedical devices
- Increasing the efficiency of drug delivery systems
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include:
- Increased strength and flexibility of polymer films
