Polycaprolactone (PCL): Revolutionizing Materials with Versatility and Sustainability

Polycaprolactone (PCL, CAS number: 24980-41-4), also known as poly-ε-caprolactone, is a high-molecular-weight organic polymer synthesized through the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone monomers catalyzed by metal anionic complex catalysts. By fine-tuning the polymerization conditions, PCL with varying molecular weights can be achieved. This versatile polymer appears as a white solid powder, is non-toxic and insoluble in […]
