Information about PEG-PCL block copolymers

--
NOTE: mPEG-PCL (AK036) thermogelation properties vary depending on storage time and also conditions such as warming, etc. which lead to self-crystallization of the PCL chains. This material may work as a thermogel but its performance is unreliable. If the batch you have is not thermogelling dissolve in organic solvent (DCM) and dry off quickly to reset polymer chain configuration.

PolySciTech sells a variety of block copolymers of PEG and polycaprolactone (PEG-PCL) including AK01, AK35 and AK36,I often get a great deal of requests for general information about these polymer types.  There are many publications regarding block copolymers of PEG-PCL. Here's links to some to get you started:
