Title: Method for producing defined layers or layer systems
Inventor: BOTTCHER HENRIK
IPC: B32B9/04
Filed: 1999-08-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing defined layers or layer systems made of polymers or oligomers on any solid surface and with a controlled structure, according to which the layers are chemically deposited on the solid surface by means of living/controlled free-radical polymerization. Said method comprises the following steps: a) bonding the compounds of the general formula (a) A-L-I to the solid surface via the active group A, where A represents an active group, I is the initiating group for ATRP polymerization and L is the binding link between A and I; and b) carrying out living/controlled free-radical polymerization by reacting the initiator group I with monomers, macromonomers or mixtures able to undergo free-radical polymerization, which produces the polymer layer on the solid surface. The invention also relates to solid surfaces with oligomer or polymer layers and initiators for carrying out the method.

Title: Preparation of peptide containing biodegradable microspheres by melt process
Inventor: CHA YOUNSIK
IPC: A61K38/28
Filed: 1996-10-25
Abstract: Peptide/protein biodegradable drug delivery devices are prepared as microspheres without the use of solvents by a polymer melt process. A melt of thermostable polypeptides and an appropriate low melting block copolymer mixture is prepared and dispersed in an appropriate fluid medium such as air, water or an immiscible organic fluid without using any organic solvent to form microdroplets. The fluid medium is cooled to solidify the microdroplets into microspheres and then collected and purified or further processed as drug delivery devices. These biodegradable microspheres are suitable as implantable or injectable pharmaceutical formulations. Following administration as solid microspheres into the body of a warm blooded animal, the formulations absorb water from the body to form a hydrogel from which the polypeptide is released continuously over an extended period of time.

Patent AU-7601496-A (AU)
Title: Super broad-band polarizing reflective material
Inventor: LI LE
IPC: C08L83/04
Filed: 1996-10-29
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to broadband, reflective circular polarizers and, more particularly, to single layer super broadband, reflective circular polarizers. The polarizers of the present invention are made from a film of material, like a polymer having a cholesteric order, in which a second liquid crystal material, like a nematic liquid crystal, is distributed in a non-linear fashion across the thickness of the film in a plurality of liquid crystal-rich and liquid crystal-depleted sites in the polymer. The resulting polarizers have band passes approaching 2000 nm and reflect circularly polarized light which is either left-handed or right-handed depending on the final spiral structure of the materials utilized. The material of the present invention is fabricated by mixing commercially available polymers having a cholesteric order, a second liquid crystal material and a photoinitiator at a temperature which maintains the mixture in a liquid state. The polymer and the liquid crystal are present in a ratio by weight of 1:2, for example, and the photoinitiator is present in an amount of 0.6% by weight, for example, in the mixture. The heated mixture is then subjected to actinic radiation for a time and at an intensity sufficient to polymerize the polymer or the liquid crystal material or both. Under all polymerizing conditions the segregation rate of the liquid crystal material has to be greater than the polymerization rate of the material being polymerized. The liquid crystal segregates and diffuses, during polymerization, to sites of enlarged pitch in the polymer material from sites of shrunken pitch in the polymer material. Because the actinic light has an exponential intensity distribution due to light attenuation by, for example, light absorption, polymerization occurs in a non-linear fashion resulting in a non-linear distribution of the polymer and the liquid crystal material across the film.
