Divinyl Sulfone, a Useful Cross-linking Agent
Advantages
- Two electron-deficient vinyl groups are useful to form chemical bonds between a variety of molecules.
- Many years of manufacturing experience.
- Available in large quantities.
Applications
Agarose gel activation for immobilization of enzymes and proteins 1,2)
Divinyl sulfone is used for immobilization of enzymes and proteins because vinyl sulfone groups can react with amino, phenol, imidazole, and thiol groups.
Cross-linking of hyaluronic acid 3)
Cross-linking with divinyl sulfone is used to modify the mechanical properties and degradation rate of hyaluronic acid hydrogels in research aimed at applications such as regenerative medicine.
Cross-linking of a conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS 4)
In the bioelectronics research including wearable sensors, cross-linking with divinyl sulfone is used to improve the stability of PEDOT:PSS in water or its bonding with other materials while maintaining the conductivity and flexibility of PEDOT:PSS.
Electrolyte additive for batteries 5)
Divinyl sulfone has been reported to enhance the cathode-electrolyte interfacial stability in lithium-ion batteries with Ni-rich cathodes by forming a passivation layer derived from divinyl sulfone on the cathode surface.
