"content": "Hydrophilic polymers are synthesized using monomers that include poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) segments and poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (DMAEMA) with methacrylate, where functional groups like ether (-O-) in PEG enhance hydrophilicity by forming hydrogen bonds with water, and amino (-NH-) in DMAEMA promotes ionic interactions with water; these interactions help in rapidly absorbing water from the surrounding, preventing the formation of discrete water droplets.The monomers used for synthesizing hydrophilic polymers include 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA), which contains a dimethylamino group that enhances hydrophilicity through strong hydrogen bonding with water, while ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) contributes to hydrophilicity through its ether oxygen atoms that also facilitate interactions with water."
