Properties
Description
PLLA(3k)-PEG(4k)-PLLA(3k) consists of two hydrophobic PLLA segments with a molecular weight of 3 kDa each, separated by a longer hydrophilic PEG segment with a molecular weight of 4 kDa.
Molecular Weight
PLLA(3 kDa), PEG(4 kDa), PLLA(3 kDa)
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
PLLA(3k)-PEG(4k)-PLLA(3k) has a linear symmetrical structure of “hydrophobic-hydrophilic-hydrophobic”, which makes it an ideal material for tissue engineering scaffolds.
