Synthesis, Characterization and Thermal Behavior of Four Arms Poly(L-lactide) via Ring Opening Polymerization

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: Four (4-arms, polyL-Lactide) were prepared by having different repeating units (10, 25, 50 and 100) from Erythritols and L-Lactide.The polymers were characterized by several methods as FT-IR, 1 HNMR, 13 CNMR, Gel Permission Chromatography and Scanning Electron Microscopy and finally their thermal stability was evaluated.The all characterization methods were confirmed the expected structure of prepared polymers, on the other hand the prepared polymers have a thermal stabilizing above 175° C, therefore, it is expected to be suitable for use in tissue engineering and drug release applications.
