Biodegradable Polymers

Synonyms

mPEG-PLLA, mPEG-PLA, mPEG-b-PLA

Description

Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and its copolymers are among the most studied biodegradable polymers. PLLA is a crystalline polymer with good mechanical properties. The applications of PLLA are mainly concentrated in biomedical applications.

Molecular Formula

HO[CH(CH3)COO]m[CH2CH2O]nCH3

Application

Biocompatible, amphiphilic block copolymer composed of a hydrophilic PEG block and a hydrophobic poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) block. These materials have been used in control release and nanoparticle formulation for drug encapsulation and delivery applications. Well-defined materials with varying properties can be prepared by controlling the relative length of each polymer block. Hydroxyl termination allows for facile further chemical modification of these materials.
