This invention discloses a method for synthesizing
polyethylene glycol (PEG) carboxyl-activated esters. This preparation method utilizes
centrifugation, taking
advantage of the
density difference in the
solvent to accelerate the extraction process, thus saving production time. Furthermore, purification via membrane treatment in
hydrochloric acid solution improves product purity. The use of
hydrochloric acid prevents the degradation of the carboxyl-activated ester in water, while the membrane treatment rapidly removes insoluble substances, ensuring purity while preventing deactivation of the carboxyl-activated ester. Both methods employed are highly adaptable to industrial applications. The re-optimized synthesis and purification steps significantly improve the purity and yield of the PEG carboxyl-activated ester. This method for preparing PEG carboxyl-activated esters is simple, yields high purity and high output, and is easily industrialized. It can be used for
drug modification, hydrogel preparation, medical sponges, tissue sealants, bio-adhesives, biological scaffolds,
fluorescence imaging, and more.
