Hydrolysis of poly(ε-caprolactone). A surface study by ESCA and SIMS

  • SUNY Buffalo

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

The study of biodegradable polymers is an area of increasing interest in both the environmental and the biomedical fields. Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) is one polyester which has undergone extensive invivo degradation studies. This communication will focus on a hydrolysis study of poly(ε-caprolactone). Both ESCA and SIMS were used to monitor the changes as the hydrolysis was carried out.
