500 mg; 1 g; 2 g; 5 g
Properties
Description
PCL(8k)-PEG(8k)-PCL(8k) contains a hydrophilic PEG block and two hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) blocks. The polycaprolactone (PCL) is biodegradable via hydrolysis on the ester bonds.
Molecular Weight
PCL(8 kDa), PEG(8 kDa), PCL(8 kDa)
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
PCL(8k)-PEG(8k)-PCL(8k) can be used to develop controlled-release formulations by leveraging the biodegradable properties of PCL and the hydrophilic nature of PEG.
