Chemical Structure Image

The given structure for pHEMA in this article is INCORRECT!

The structure presented is based on the monomer methyl-4-hydroxy-2-methylenebutanoate, based on methylmethacrylate. Please review and correct strucutre. The hydroxyethyl part should be hanging off of the acid oxygen, and the methyl hanging dirrectly off the polymer chain. Sorry I can't seem to copy my drawings. Thanks.

-Can anyone corroborate this? I can't find the structure anywhere on the internet and don't have my book with me. --Karuna8 15:46, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are other pictures of the monomer on the internet. I just don't know how to put it on wiki... Oneoo 09:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I tried making a new one. Is this alright? If that is the structure, then the text needs to be edited to match up with it. --Karuna8 15:30, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An article on pHEMA

An ip added this article to the page, I took it off because it looked misplaced, but it also seems relevant so I'll post it here.
