Synthesis and Biocompatibility of Graft Copolymer of Butyl Methacrylate onto Gelatin
Gelatin에 Butyl Methacrylate 그라프트 공중합체의 합성과 생체적합성
Abstract
The grafting of butyl methacrylate onto gelatin was investigated by potassium persulfate(KPS) redox system in aqueous solution. The optimum conditions of grafting were observed, and the physical property and the biocolnpatibility of graft copolymer membrane were examined. The gas permeability and the biodegradation by bacteria were decreased with the grafting percentage increased, and tensile strength increased with the grafting percentage increased.
