General description

1-Pyrenemethyl methacrylate is a fluorescent methacrylate monomer which is used for synthesising poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) based optical and fluorescent temperature sensors. These polymeric sensors exhibit reverse solubility transition wherein the polymer is insoluble at low temperatures and is soluble at higher temperatures. These sensors are used as biosensors, in drug delivery, logical gates and optical sensing applications.

Application

  • fluorescent monomer

Features and Benefits

Water-soluble, thermo-responsive and responds to minor local environment changes.
