✦ Synopsis


Two new hydroxyethyl methacrylates having aryl and cyclobutane rings were synthesized by addition to 1-(epoxyethyl)-3-aryl-3-methylcyclobutane to methacrylic acid. The monomers prepared are 2-(3-methyl-3-phenylcyclobutyl)-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (PCHEMA) and 2-(3-methyl-3-mesitylcyclobutyl)-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (MCHEMA). Both monomers were polymerized at 60ЊC in 1,4-dioxane solution using benzoyl peroxide as initiator. Poly(PCHEMA) and poly(MCHEMA) and their monomers were characterized by FT-IR and 1 H-and 13 C-NMR techniques. Weight average molecular weights of the polymers were determined for poly(PCHEMA) poly(MCHEMA) by gel permation chromatography. Thermal stabilities of the polymers were essentially the same. Glass transition temperatures for poly(PCHEMA) and poly(MCHEMA) were determined as 105 and 137ЊC, respectively. No changes of the polymers by irradiation with UV light at 254 nm were observed.

A limitation in the use of hydrophilic poly(2hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) sponges as implantable devices is their inherently poor mechanical strength. This precludes proper surgical manipulation, especially in the eye where the size of the implant is usually small. In this study a new method w
