| Research Abstract |
We have developed the Tetra-PEG gel having extremely homogeneous network structure from tetra-arm polyethyleneglycol (Tetra-PEG). Tetra-PEG gel is easily formed by mixing two Tetra-PEG solutions, and have high mechanical strength originated from its homogeneities. Because Tetra-PEG gel has highly homogeneous network structure, toughness, biocompatibility, and high operatively, it is expected to be applied to the biomedical field, and contribute to the further development of polymer physics.
