The polymerization of D,L-lactide in the presence of zinc metal was investigated for low values of the monomer/catalyst ratio in order to allow endgroup characterization of the growing chains by high resolution 360 MHz 1H NMR. The results showed that the polymerization was moisture sensitive and tha

Lithium chloride was found to be an effective and biocompatible catalyst for the ring-opening polymerization of lactide in the presence of hydroxyl-containing compounds. Ethylene glycol (EG) and methyl ␣-D-glucopyranoside (MGlc) were used as multifunctional initiators. The polymerization was carried
Various amounts of hydroxy terminated PDMS were linked into PLLA chains via in-situ ring opening polymerization at a very low content of SnOt2. The 'H and FTIR spectra provided evidence for the incorporation of the PDMS in the PLLA chains. The molecular weights, T8, T,, crystallinity and the heats o
