Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a linear silicone polymer, is widely used in applications ranging from medical devices and contact lenses to coatings and consumer products due to its flexibility, chemical stability, and processing versatility. However, its inherent hydrophobicity can limit its performance in applications requiring wettability, aqueous compatibility, or resistance to fouling.
In this webinar, experts from Gelest will explain how hydrophilic PDMS chemistries can retain the desirable properties of silicone while enabling new opportunities for aqueous-compatible and fouling-resistant materials.
