Glycolide → Hydroxyacetic acid--2-hydroxypropanoic acid (1/1)

Participants

Reaction Steps

Polymerization and post-treatment were performed in the same manner as in Polymer Preparation Example 1 except that a mixture of 196 g of glycolide and 4 g of L-(-)-lactide (product of Tokyo Kasei Kogyo Co., Ltd.) was used in place of 200 g of glycolide, thereby obtaining a glycolic acid-lactic acid copolymer [Polymer (P-2)]. The same process was conducted repeatedly to prepare a necessary amount of Polymer (P-2).
