Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention provides novel zwitterionic monomers and polymers (including copolymers) with pendent phosphonium-based zwitterionic moieties, and compositions and products comprising same, as well as related methods and uses of the compositions, for example, as surfactants, coatings, and interlayer materials, biomedical materials or agents.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A compound having the structural formula: wherein X is O or NH, R 1 is H or a methyl, each R 2 is independently an alkyl or aryl group, L 1 is (CH 2 ) i , wherein i is an integer selected from 1 and 2, and L 2 is (CH 2 ) j , wherein j is an integer selected from 0 to 6. 2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein X is O. 3. The compound of claim 1 , wherein X is NH. 4. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is H. 5. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is a methyl group. 6. The compound of claim 1 , wherein each R 2 is a C 1 -C 18 alkyl group. 7. The compound of claim 1 , wherein each R 2 is an aryl group. 8. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the R 2 groups are the same. 9. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the R 2 groups are not the same. 10. The compound of claim 1 , wherein i is an integer selected from 1-2. 11. The compound of claim 10 , wherein j is an integer selected from 0-3.
