PHEMA can dissolved in polar solvent such as MeOH, DMF. And it can not dissolved in apolar solvent such as hexane.
However, it precipitates in DI water. why it suddenly becomes insoluble when polarity of solvent gains?
I have tried to dip copper mash on the surface of the gel as indicated by some articles. But it was to thick to observe my material. how can i cope with that? THX

I had a crystal hit in a well with 0.1M HEPEs pH 7.5, 10%(w/v) PEG 4000, and 20%(w/v) isopropanol. Why is isopropanol in w/v here if it's just solvent? How do I recreate this well condition?
