Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a side chain carbamate modified organic silicon macromonomer and a copolymer thereof. Background Art

[0002] Silicone is widely used as a contact lens material due to its high oxygen permeability. However, since silicone is non-hydrophilic, there have been reports of introducing hydrophilic groups to improve compatibility with polymerizable hydrophilic monomers.

[0003] As silicones (silicone macromers) with introduced hydrophilic groups, compounds with introduced hydroxyl groups have been disclosed (Patent Document 1). The introduction of hydroxyl groups improves the compatibility of silicone macromers with polymerizable hydrophilic monomers. However, in order to more freely incorporate polymerizable hydrophilic monomers into contact lens materials, further improvement of the compatibility of silicone macromers with polymerizable hydrophilic monomers is desired.
