Biodegradable material Poly(trimethylene carbonate) PTMC for Medical use
Introduction
Name: Poly(trimethylene carbonate)
Appearance: Colorless, yellowish to brown irregular pieces
Chemical formula: (C4H6O3)n
Aliphatic polycarbonates have drawn attention as biodegradable polymers that can be applied to a broad range of resorbable medical devices. In particular, poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC), its copolymers, and its derivatives are currently studied due to their unique degradation characteristics that are different from those of aliphatic polyesters. Furthermore, their flexible and hydrophobic nature has driven the application of PTMC-based polymers to soft tissue regeneration and drug delivery.
Specifications:
Item | Specifications |
Characters | Colorless, yellowish to brown irregular pieces |
Inherent Viscosity | 0.1-7.0dl/g(Viscosimeter) |
M.W. | 3000-500000 |
Applications:
PTMC has good biocompatibility and biodegradability. It has certain elasticity in the rubber state at body temperature, and is widely used in degradable binding devices, drug controlled release materials, implant materials and support materials in vivo. Copolymerization with polylactic acid and other polyesters can improve the properties of the polymer.
Note:
PTMC can be customized with other polymers (PLA, PLGA, PCL, PEG,MPEG) in various ratios of binary or multipolymer copolymers.
Storage
Dry and sealed at low temperature below 0ºC, avoid contact with moisture.
