Product Description:
Polymer Factory's bis-MPA PEG linear dendritic hyperbranched polymers are multifunctional polyethylene glycol scaffolds with a high extent of ammonium end groups. The hyperbranched dendritic wedges can be characterized by an average number of end groups, increasing with pseudo-generation. These materials feature a PEG core to aid water solubility and a high degree of functionality for each PEG chain, offering a multi-functional material with more economic pricing than our flawless linear dendritics.  The bis-MPA polyester scaffolds are biodegrable and have low cytotoxicity, making them ideal candidates for use in biological research applications. Learn more from our leaflet on Amine Functional PEGs here
