Amphiphilic and hydrogel polymers are useful biomedical materials. This paper presents some recent work on new syntheses of such materials. Amphiphilic gels have been prepared by the Diels-Alder reaction of poly(ethylene glycol)s that contain acetylene dicarboxylate groups along the main chain, with

The bulk properties of two types of amphiphilic networks, poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-l-polyisobutylene (PHEMA-l-PIB, H-network) and poly( N,N-dimethylacrylamide)-l-polyisobutylene (PDMAAm-l-PIB, A-network), have been investigated. Tensile strengths decreased considerably by swelling, and the
## Abstract We here present the synthesis and characterisation of linear and star‐shaped amphiphilic block copolymers based on hydrophobic polysulfides (poly(propylene sulfide), PPS) and hydrophilic polyethers (poly(ethylene glycol), PEG). We also discuss the proof of the principle of their respons
