Product Description
High-grade, suitable for biomedical research.
Supplied as micronized powder.
Polycaprolactone-b-polyethylene glycol Block Copolymer (PCL-b-mPEG) is a biodegradable and amphiphilic block copolymer that combines the hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) with hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG). The PCL segment offers slow degradation and hydrophobicity, while the PEG segment enhances water solubility and biocompatibility. This copolymer has excellent physical and chemical properties, including tunable molecular weight, adjustable degradation rates, and good solubility in organic solvents. The molecular weight and ratio of PCL to PEG can be tailored to specific application needs, allowing for flexibility in designing drug delivery systems, nanoparticles, and coatings. PCL-b-mPEG is highly suited for biomedical fields, particularly in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and hydrogels. The hydrophilic PEG segment provides steric stabilization for nanoparticles, improving circulation times and bioavailability in drug delivery applications. The slow degradation of PCL makes this copolymer ideal for controlled release systems. Furthermore, its biocompatibility and ease of processing make it an attractive material for use in scaffolds and implants in tissue engineering.
