In this study, the grafting of nicotinic acid and p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) onto poly(Ε-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(Ε- caprolactone) was performed by Huisgens 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, also known as click chemistry. Concentrations used for grafting were 0.10, 0.20, and 0.30 molar rati...
