Biomedical Applications of Thiol-Acrylate Polymers
… development of biocompatible polymers using thiol-acrylate Michael addition reactions between not only acrylates and thiols but also between amines and acrylates were demonstrated. The synthesis of an in situ tertiary amine catalyst initiates the propagation steps of the polymerization …

Fabrication, analysis, application, and characterization of core-containing microparticles and hydrophilic microfluidic devices produced via the primary- and in situ tertiary-amine catalyzed Michael addition of multifunctional thiols to multifunctional acrylates
… this research was to investigate amine-catalyzed thiol-acrylate chemistry for various novel applications that could fully utilize the untapped potential of this useful and robust chemistry. The use of this chemistry in each application solved a problem, improved on a disadvantage of current …

Extracellular Vesicle Capture and microRNA Detection
… surface markers. We explored the use of the thiol-acrylate Michael addition reaction for antibody conjugation and optimized it for extracellular vesicle capture. Using these porous, antibody functionalized hydrogel particles, we captured breast cancer serum and match healthy serum …

Development of applications of liquid crystalline elastomers from Materials to Applications
… First, novel side-chain LCEs based on the robust thiol-acrylate click reaction were developed. The effects of mesogen structures on the LCEs’ phase transition behaviours and network structures were investigated. The unusual features were the semi-crystalline nature of elastomers with non-polar …

Time-Lapse Polymerizations Triggered by pH clock Reactions
… 1300 (ETTMP) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate 700 (PEGDA). We had great success creating this time-lapse polymerization system and were even able to create the first isothermal frontal polymerization system that does not require the gel effect to propagate the polymer fronts. This work …
