Polycaprolactone Diol
Polycaprolactone diol (PCL-diol), along with polytetrahydrofuran diol (PTHF-diol) and ceric ammonium nitrate may be used to polymerize methyl methacrylate (MMA). The product may be used to prepare biocompatible poly(ester urethane)urea (PEUU) and as a precursor for polyurethane (PU) thermoplastic polymer. Double functional caprolactone is the most common product type, which have molar mass in the range from 400 to 4000 g/mole; and acid number is about 0,25 mg KOH/g.
