Thermoplastic biodegradable elastomers based on ε-caprolactone and L-lactide block copolymers : a new synthetic approach

Although biodegradable polymers have found extensive application in medical devices, there are very few commercially available elastomeric biodegradable polymers. In this work, starting with the well-known monomers L-lactide and ε-caprolactone, we developed elastomers using a multiblock copolymer ap...
