Product Information

• Name: 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate - (stabilized with MEHQ)
• Synonyms: 2-Methyl-2-propenoic acid 2-hydroxyethyl ester2-(Methacryloyloxy)ethanolAcryester HISS
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate is the monomer used to produce copolymers that are used in hydrogels for tissue engineering. The copolymers are composed of glycol methacrylates, which have a high rate constant and can be polymerized at room temperature or by UV light. Copolymers are also resistant to degradation by enzymes in biological samples such as human immunoglobulin. 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate is also used to produce polymeric compositions with excellent mechanical properties, such as axonal growth, and can be used to make hydrogels.
