Abstract

This invention relates to hydrophilic polymer compositions and a preferred application therefore, viz., hydrophilic medical device coatings. The hyaluronic acid hyaluronon by itself or modified as described herein advantageously reacts with compositions disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 7,776,956 to produce hydrophilic compositions and coatings particularly useable with medical devices.

Claims (60)

1. An HA-based composition, comprising the reaction product of:

a) an HA-compound selected from the group consisting of a hyaluronic acid, a hyaluronate, a hyaluronan, and salts thereof; and

b) a water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) of formula I or II, or a self-crosslinked derivative thereof:

wherein:

i) n ranges from 1 to 50;

ii) R 2 is independently an optionally substituted divalent C 1 -C 15 alkyl, an optionally substituted divalent C 13 -C 15 cycloalkyl, or a group selected from:

and

iii) R 3 is independently an optionally substituted C 1 -C 15 alkyl.

2. The HA-based composition of claim 1 wherein the water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) is of formula I.

3. The HA-based composition of claim 2 wherein n=1, R 2 =(—CH 2 —) 6 as a divalent hexamethylene alkyl, and R 3 is independently an optionally substituted C 1 -C 15 alkyl.

4. The HA-based composition of claim 2 in which the glycidyl carbamate moiety is self-cross-linked.

5. The HA-based composition of claim 1 having a molecular weight in the range of about 10,000 to about 8,000,000.

6. A method of coating a substrate with a water dispersible coating composition, comprising the step of applying the HA-based composition of claim 1 to a substrate.

7. The method of claim 6 including selecting the substrate from the group consisting of plastic and metal.

8. An HA-based composition, comprising the reaction product of:

a) an HA-compound selected from the group consisting of a hyaluronic acid, a hyaluronate, a hyaluronan, and salts thereof coupled to polyalkylene glycol end-capped isocyanate; and

b) a water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) of formula I or II:

c) wherein:

i) n ranges from 1 to 50;

ii) R 2 is independently an optionally substituted divalent C 1 -C 15 alkyl, an optionally substituted divalent C 3 -C 15 cycloalkyl, or a group selected from:

and

iii) R 3 is independently an optionally substituted C 1 -C 15 alkyl.

9. The HA-based composition of claim 8 wherein the water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) is of formula (I).

10. The HA-based composition of claim 9 wherein:

a) n=1, R 2 =(—CH 2 —) 6 as a divalent hexamethylene alkyl, and

b) R 3 is independently an optionally substituted C 1 -C 15 alkyl.

11. The HA-based composition of claim 8 having a molecular weight in the range of about 10,000 to about 8,000,000.

12. The HA-based composition of claim 8 , wherein the glycidyl carbamate moiety reacts with hydroxyl functionality of the HA-compound.

13. The HA-based composition of claim 8 , wherein the glycidyl carbamate moiety reacts with carboxylic acid functionality of the HA-compound.

14. The HA-based composition of claim 8 , as a mixture of from 0.01% to 99.99% of the HA-based composition having an mPEG end-cap, the remainder being glycidyl end capped isocyanate mixed pre-polymer.

15. A method of coating a substrate with a water dispersible coating composition, comprising the step of applying the HA-based composition of claim 8 to a substrate.

16. The method of claim 15 including selecting the substrate from the group consisting of plastic and metal.

17. An HA-based composition, consisting essentially of the reaction product of:

a) an HA-compound selected from the group consisting of a hyaluronic acid, a hyaluronate, a hyaluronan, and salts thereof; and

b) a water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) of formula I or II, or a self-crosslinked derivative thereof:

wherein:

i) n ranges from 1 to 50;

ii) R 2 is independently an optionally substituted divalent C 1 -C 15 alkyl, an optionally substituted divalent C 13 -C 15 cycloalkyl, or a group selected from:

21. The HA-based composition of claim 17 having a molecular weight in the range of about 10,000 to about 8,000,000.

22. An HA-based composition, consisting essentially of the reaction product of:

a) an HA-compound selected from the group consisting of a hyaluronic acid, a hyaluronate, a hyaluronan, and salts thereof coupled to polyalkylene glycol end-capped isocyanate; and

b) a water dispersible epoxy urethane (glycidyl carbamate) of formula I or II:

c) wherein:

i) n ranges from 1 to 50;

ii) R 2 is independently an optionally substituted divalent C 1 -C 15 alkyl, an optionally substituted divalent C 3 -C 15 cycloalkyl, or a group selected from:
