ABSTRACT:
The invention provides new hydrogel forming materials comprising synthetic, hydrophilic, aqueous-insoluble polymer networks formed by copolymerization of a hydrophilic dihydroxyalkyl acrylate or methacrylate, a substantially water insoluble alkyl acrylate or methacrylate, one or more additional hydrophilic comonomers selected from the group of vinylic monomers, acrylates, and methacrylates, and a cross-linking agent. The hydrogels are preferably used for the formation of contact lenses, but may also be used for drug and pesticides delivery devices; dialysis, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis membranes; implants in surgery and dentistry; and the like.
