The bulk ring-opening copolymerisation of L-lactide (LL) and e-caprolactone (CL) with an initial comonomer feed ratio of LL:CL = 75:25 mol % was carried out using stannous acetate as the initiator at 120 °C for 48 hrs. The copolymer was characterised by GPC, DSC and TGA. Due to its ability to biodeg...
