Title:
POLYIONENE POLYMERS WITH HYDROLYZABLE LINKAGES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004046223
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Ionene polymers are effective antipathogenic agents and can be used as a surface treatment or as a pharmaceutical agent. Ionene polymers typically are persistent in an environment because they degrade slowly, however, it is sometimes desirable to have a polymer that degrades over time. Ionene polymers that have one or more hydrolyzable groups in the polymer backbone represent a type of ionene polymer that degrades with time, and the size of the resulting polymer fragments can be controlled by the placement of the hydrolyzable groups.
