## Abstract MWNTs are modified to possess hydroxy groups and are used as coinitiators to polymerize L‐lactide by the surface‐initiated ring‐opening polymerization. FT‐IR and TEM observations reveal that the PLLA is covalently attached to the MWNTs (MWNT‐__g__‐PLLA), and the weight gain as a result
## Abstract Blends of PAni and PLCL are electrospun to prepare uniform fibers for the development of electrically conductive, engineered nerve grafts. PC12 cell viability is significantly higher on RPACL fibers than on PLCL‐only fibers, and the electrical conductivity of the fibers affects the diff
