## Abstract The ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone (ε‐CL) has been investigated in the presence of succinic acid in nitrogen atmosphere at 225°C. Analysis of the resultant polymers suggests that the poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) obtained has two terminal carboxylic groups. VPO, ^1^H NMR and
## Abstract **Summary:** Microwave‐assisted ring‐opening polymerization of __ε__‐caprolactone in the presence of 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid using zinc oxide as a catalyst is investigated. By adding 30 wt.‐% ionic liquid, poly(__ε__‐caprolactone) with a weight‐average
## Abstract PCL/clay nanocomposites were prepared by microwave‐assisted in situ ROP of __ε__‐caprolactone in the presence of either unmodified clay (Cloisite® Na^+^) or clay modified by quaternary ammonium cations containing hydroxyl groups (Cloisite 30B). This PCL showed significantly improved mon
