ABSTRACT
A number of different formulations were tested and prepared by bulk suspension to give the optimal material. These supports swell in a wide range of hydrophobic and hydrophilic solvents, such as water. Although these materials showed great chemical and mechanical stability in acidic and weakly basic conditions, the resins will dissolve in the presence of ammonia or aqueous bases due to the ammonolysis of the three ester linkages in the cross-linker.
