1,3-Dioxan-2-one homopolymer Usage And Synthesis

Uses

1,3-Dioxan-2-one homopolymer can be copolymerized with other lactone monomers to produce materials with tunable physical and chemical properties. After cross-linking a flexible and elastic (co-)polymer network is obtained, with properties similar to those of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) rubber.The materials can be used in biomedical applications. PTMC-based polymers degrade in vivo by an enzymatic surface erosion mechanism without releasing acidic degradation products, which makes these polymers well suited as matrices for the preparation of biodegradable composites for bone tissue engineering and drug delivery.

Production Methods

The direct polymerization method is a continuous esterification reaction


Open-loop polymerization includes three reaction steps: oligomerization, depolymerization and ring opening, which can achieve precise control of the polymerization reaction

General Description

1,3-Dioxan-2-one homopolymer is an amorphous polymer with low glass transition, prepared by ring-opening polymerization of cyclic trimethylene carbonate (TMC) monomers.
