8-Arm-PEG40000-Acrylate  (Synonyms: 8-Arm-PEG40000-AC)

8-Arm-PEG40000-Acrylate (8-Arm-PEG40000-AC) is an eight-arm PEG derivative. The core structure of 8-Arm-PEG40000-Acrylate consists of eight PEG chains, each modified at the end with an acrylate (acrylate) group. 8-Arm-PEG40000-Acrylate can be used for research on hydrogel preparation and drug delivery.

The structure of PEG-Acrylate comprises two key components that work synergistically:
Acrylate: A key monomer in photopolymerization or thermal polymerization, it can react with other acrylate groups through free radical polymerization to form a covalently cross-linked network.
PEG chain: Acting as a hydrophilic spacer, it forms a hydration layer on the particle surface, reducing non-specific adsorption and immune system recognition and clearance, thus prolonging the carrier's circulation time in vivo.
