Oligomers with equal numbers of hydroxyl and phenyl carbonate terminal groups could be easily controlled by using equimolar amounts of diphenyl carbonate(DPC) and aliphatic diols as feedstocks in the first step. In the second step, the high-molecular-weight APCs can be obtained by connecting -OH with -OC(O)OC6H5 end-group upon removing the generated phenol at reduced pressure. Mg(OAc)2 was found to be the best catalyst for this process among the screened catalysts, which gave the poly(l,4-butylene carbonate)(PBC) a weight-average molecular weight(Mw) of 148600 and a yield of 84.8% under its suitable reaction conditions. In addition, based on the results of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), a possible reaction mechanism over Mg(OAe)2 was proposed for APCs synthesis.展开更多

The microspheres were spherical in shape with smooth surfaces and good dispersion. The drug loading and encapsulation efficiency were 36.7% and 78.6%, respectively. The degradative behave was studied by SEM, XRD and drug release curves in different degradation medium were obtained.It was found that these microspheres could be degraded at faster speed in the basic media, while could not be degraded in the acidic media.The higher pH value of the medium was,the faster the initial degradative speed was.展开更多

The terpolymers prepared were characterized by FT-IR,1H NMR, 13C NMR, WXRD and DSC. The hydrolysis tests were carried out to appraise the degradability of the copolymers.展开更多
