Abstract
  • In this article, the synthesis of two amphiphilic polyaspartamide copolymers, useful to obtain polymeric nanoparticles without using surfactants or stabilizing agents, is described. These copolymers were obtained starting from a,b-poly-(N-2-hydroxyethyl)DL-aspartamide (PHEA) by following a novel synthetic strategy. In particular, PHEA and its pegylated derivative (PHEA-PEG) were functionalized with poly(lactic acid) (PLA) through carbonyldiimidazoleCDI) activation to obtain PHEA-PLA and PHEA-PEG-PLA graft copolymers, respectively. These copolymers were properly purified and characterized by 1H-NMR, FT-IR, and Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) analyses, which confirmedthat derivatization reactions occurred. Nanoparticles were obtained from PHEA-PLA and PHEA-PEGPLA graft copolymers by using the high pressure homogenization-solvent evaporation method, avoiding the use of surfactants or stabilizing agents. Polymeric nanoparticles were characterized by dimensional analysis, before and after freeze-drying process, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Zeta potential measurements and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis demonstrated the presence of PEG and/or PHEA onto the PHEA-PEG-PLA and PHEA-PLA nanoparticle surface, respectively.
