초록

본 연구는 itaconic acid로부터 합성한 새로운 soft contact lens 소재의 함수율과 산소투과도를 확인 하였다. Soft contact lens의 새로운 polymer소재 개발을 위하여 기본 monomer인 HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)와 가교제로서 EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) 그리고 A. itaconicus의 발효에 의해 생산된 itaconic acid로부터 얻어진 mono-ester 1과 di-ester 2를 새로운 첨가제로 사용하여 중합반응을 시도하였다. Soft contact lens의 새로운 폴리머 소재들은 HEMA와 mono-ester 1 또는 di-ester 2를 서로 다른 비율로 합성하여 함수율(water content)과 산소투과도(oxygen permeability)를 분석하였다. Polymer 형성을 위한 HEMA와 additive의 혼합에서 HEMA/mono-ester 1의 혼합물은 HEMA/di-ester 2 보다 함수율과 산소투과도가 뛰어 났으며 HEMA와 첨가제 mono-ester 1 (15%)를 이용한 중합의 경우, 제작된 soft contact lens의 함수율과 산소투과도는 각각 57.7%와 28.6 Dk로 좋은 값을 나타냈다. 새로운 소재를 사용하여 만든 soft contact lens의 함수율과 산소투과도는 우수하게 나타났다.

In this study, we confirmed water content and oxygen permeability of new polymeric materials synthesized from itaconic acid used for soft contact lenses. In this study, we polymerized materials for soft contact lenses using HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), the based-monomer of soft contact lenses, EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) as a cross linkage agent, and the new additives mono-ester or di-ester derived from itaconic acid commercially produced by the fermentation of A. itaconicus. New polymer materials for contact lenses were synthesized with the mixture of HEMA and mono- or di-ester at different ratios and water content and oxygen permeability (Dk) was analyzed. In polymerizing HEMA and mono-ester (15%), the water content and oxygen permeability of contact lenses were found to be of good value at 57.7% and 28.6 Dk respectively. The mixture of HEMA and mono-ester is more excellent than HEMA/di-ester in regards to water content and oxygen permeability. The water content and oxygen permeability of soft contact lenses made by new polymeric materials were highly represented.
