Description
mPEG(2k)-PCL(3k)-COOH is a block copolymer containing hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) and hydrophilic PEG. The carboxylic acid reacts with primary amines in the presence of an activator (e.g., HATU/EDC) to form an amide bond.
Applications
mPEG(2k)-PCL(3k)-COOH can be used as a cross-linking agent or interface modifier, and can synthesize new materials with special functions by cross-linking carboxyl groups with chemical groups such as amino groups and alcohol groups.
