Polycaprolactone (PCL)

(4.5 Reviews)
  • Polycaprolactone (PCL), a hydrophobic polymer with semicrystalline structure, is made of caprolactone subunits linked together by the process of ring-opening polymerization.
Polycaprolactone (PCL) is biodegradable polyester with a low melting point of around 60°C and a glass transition temperature of about −60°C. PCL is prepared by ring-opening polymerization of ɛ-caprolactone using a catalyst such as stannous octanoate.
