Studies on Development of Polymeric Materials Using Gamma Irradiation for Contact and Intraocular Lenses by Pranshu Chhabra, Ruchi Gupta, Gunjan Suri, Mukti Tyagi, Geetha Seshadri, S. Sabharwal, U. K. Niyogi, R. K. Khandal

“…Compositions were prepared in such a way that polymers of varying hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity could be obtained keeping HEMA as the base (main) monomer. For polymerization, gamma irradiation (Co-60 as a source) was used. The results of the study showed that: (i) an increase in NVP and MAA content brought in an increase in hydrophilicity of polymerized HEMA (pHEMA), while the addition of styrene and MMA decreased hydrophilicity of polymerized HEMA (pHEMA), (ii) polymers for contact lenses with water retention capacity as high as >50 wt.% and as low as <10 wt% with varying content of suitable comonomers can be designed, (iii) polymeric materials for contact lenses can be made by using radiation processing such as Co-60 and (iv) a dose of 40 kGy was found to be ideal for purpose.…”
