PolyVivo AP34 tensile properties

PolySciTech (www.polyscitech.com) provides PolyVivo AP34 Poly(caprolactone-co-DL-lactide) (LA:CL 1:99) (Mn 45,000-55,000 Da). Recent mechanical testing at Akina, Inc. indicates this material has an elastic modulus (2% strain) of 649 kPa. The ultimate yield strain was 48% and tensile strength was found to be 8MPa. Testing done on a dogbone cut section using TA.XTplus texture analyzer.
