Characterization of Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Polyfumarate Blends as Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering
2010
Journal of Biomaterials Science. Polymer Edition
There is considerable interest in the design of polymeric biomaterials that can be used for the repair of bone defects. In this study, we used ultrasound to prepare a compatibilized blend of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(diisopropyl fumarate) (PDIPF). The formation of post-sonication inter-polymer coupling products was verified by SEC analysis of a blend with azo-labeled PDIPF. We also analyzed the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the compatibilized blend. When compared to PCL
