Properties
Description
PCL(1k)-PEG(6k)-PCL(1k) consists of hydrophilic PEG block in between hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) blocks. The polycaprolactone (PCL) is biodegradable via hydrolysis on the ester bonds.
Molecular Weight
PCL(1 kDa), PEG(6 kDa), PCL(1 kDa)
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
PCL(1k)-PEG(6k)-PCL(1k) has a linear triblock structure and can be used in the field of nanocarrier preparation and tissue engineering.
