Description

2-Aminoethyl Methacrylate Hydrochloride is a bifunctional monomer featuring both a polymerizable methacrylate group and a reactive primary amine hydrochloride salt. This unique structure makes it a crucial building block for synthesizing advanced functional polymers with cationic or reactive amine sites. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biomedical, and specialty polymer industries who require materials with tailored surface properties, controlled drug delivery capabilities, or enhanced adhesion.

Application

• Bioconjugation and Drug Delivery Systems: Used to introduce amine-reactive sites onto polymer backbones for covalent attachment of peptides, proteins, or targeting ligands in controlled-release formulations.
• Cationic Polymer Synthesis: Serves as a key monomer for creating polymers with permanent positive charges, useful in applications like flocculants, antimicrobial coatings, and gene delivery vectors.
• Surface Modification and Adhesion Promoters: Incorporated into coatings, adhesives, and composites to improve adhesion to various substrates through its amine functionality.
• Hydrogel Fabrication: Employed in the synthesis of pH-responsive or functionalized hydrogels for biomedical applications, including tissue engineering scaffolds and biosensors.
• Chromatography Media: Used to functionalize resin beads for ion-exchange or affinity chromatography columns.
• Photoresist and Photopolymer Chemistry: Acts as a reactive component in advanced photoresist formulations for microelectronics and optical materials.

Quality Control

Our 2-Aminoethyl Methacrylate Hydrochloride is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters including assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics. Our quality systems support compliance with cGMP and relevant ICH guidelines for pharmaceutical intermediates, ensuring reliability for critical research and production applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated) for long-term stability, as the compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive. Allow the container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
