Amphiphilic graft copolymers

Abstract:

Amphiphilic graft copolymers comprise a polypropylene backbone and polyoxyalkylene side-chains (PPMA-g-PEO-PPO). These copolymers are suitable as additives to base polymeric formulations for medical devices for improving bond strength, paintability, dyeability, and printablity.
