Abstract:
1. A biomedical device formed from a reaction mixture comprising a high molecular weight hydrophilic polymer and an effective amount of an hydroxyl-functionalized silicone-containing monomer selected from the group consisting of bis-3-methacryloxy-2-hydroxypropyloxypropyl polydimethylsiloxane, 3-methacryloxy-2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)propyloxy)propylbis(trimethylsiloxy) methylsilane, N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(3-methacryloxy-2-hydroxypropyl)-α,ω-bis-3-aminopropyl-polydimethylsiloxane, and hydroxyl-functionalized silicone containing monomers of formula: where n=1-50 and R independently comprise H or a polymerizable unsaturated group, with at least one R comprising a polymerizable group, and at least one R comprising H.
