The ExpertGel® range of polymers has many advantages over poloxamer and classical water soluble thermogelling polymers :
 |
Low concentration needed (1 to 5%) for high viscosity increase (3 to 5 decades increase) upon temperature change |
| |
|
Thermosensitive behaviour unaffected by pH changes (pH 1 to 12) |
| |
|
Compatibility with salts, neutral surfactants and oils |
|
|
Rheofluidifying behaviour of solutions |
| |
|
Gel temperature (LCST) adjustable between 10 and 60°C |
| |
|
Biocompatible and non-irritating product, can be used in skin and mucosa contact applications. |
| |
|
One pot synthesis without previous purifications and directly with commercial products. |
