HYDROPHILIC MATERIAL AND SEMIPERMEABLE MEMBRANE MADE THEREFROM.

摘要

A hydrophilic material comprising a copolymer composed of a monomer (A) having a polyalkylene oxide unit and a polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond in its molecule, a methacrylate or acrylate monomer (B) and another monomer (C) having a polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond in its molecule, which material is characterized by containing the monomer (C) in the proportion of 10 to 90 % by weight. The invention provides a hydrophilic material which is soluble, readily moldable, and excellent in antithrombotic and antifouling properties, and further provides an antithrombotic material and a semipermeable membrane. These materials can be appropriately used in the medical field and as water-absorbent and antifouling materials.
