Syntheses of a Novel Diamine Monomer and Aromatic Polyamides Containing Phosphorylcholine group

抄録

The synthesis of novel aromatic diamine compounds containing phosphorylcholine (PC) group was carried out, which gave the high molecular weight polyamides with PC group by polycondensation. The obtained polymers exhibited the excellent biocompatibility, which would be due to the surface structure derived from PC side chain. In addition, the obtained polymers showed the high thermal stability up to 250°C, at which the thermal degradation of PC moiety occurred. Therefore, these polymers are expected as tough biocompatible materials for the use of biomedical devices.
