Polycaprolactone (PCL): Pioneering Advances in Healthcare and Green Solutions

How is Polycaprolactone (PCL) Processed for Commercial Use? Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) stands out in the polymer world with its superb mechanical properties, compatibility with various polymers, and environmental friendliness due to biodegradability. Its main synthesis methods include polycondensation of hydroxy-carboxylic acids, especially 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid, and the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone. ROP is favored for its […]
