Ring opening polymerization of macrolactones: High conversions and activities using an yttrium catalyst

<p>The ring-opening polymerization of macrolactones (C15-C23) enables the production of long-chain aliphatic polyesters which are crystalline polymers with melting temperatures ranging from 80 – 110 °C. Here, the polymerization of ω-pentadecalactone (C15), nonadecalactone (C19) and tricosalac...
