## Abstract Hyaluronic acid is a natural glycosaminoglycan involved in biological processes. Lowβmolecularβweight hyaluronic acid (10 and 50 kDa)βbased hydrogel was synthesized using derivatized hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid was acrylated by two steps: (1) introduction of an amine group using ad

Novel pH-sensitive physically crosslinked hydrogels were synthesized by grafting D,L-lactic acid (LA) onto the amino groups in chitosan (CS) without a catalyst. The structures of these graft copolymers were analyzed by FTIR and X-ray measurements. Degree of substitution, side-chain length, and yield
The synthesis of low-molecular-weight (M V w (GPC) Γ΅ 72000 g mol) lactic- acid-based telechelic prepolymers by condensation polymerization of L-lactic acid was investigated. All polymerizations were carried out in the melt, using tin(II)octoate as catalyst, different diols, and different polymerizat
