In a century when environmental pollution is a major issue, polymers issued from bio-based
monomers have gained important interest, as they are expected to be environment-friendly …

Nontoxic materials with natural origin are promising materials in the designing and
preparation of the new drug delivery systems (DDSs). Today's, citric acid (CA) has attracted …

In this work we report on a new method for the cationic polymerization of glycidol by citric
acid at ambient and solvent free conditions. In this polymerization, citric acid is a proton …

Hyperbranched polyglycerols (hPGs) have a variety of biomedical applications due to their
unique physicochemical properties such as biocompatibility and multi-functionality …

Hyperbranched polyglycerol (hPG) with two different molecular weights (hPG2400 and
hPG8000) was used as a macroinitiator for the polymerization of lactide. Thereby …

This study represents a comparative analysis of the solution behavior and self-assembly
pattern of two linear dendritic block copolymers (LDBCs) composed of a generation 3 …

We introduce a “click” chemistry-based concept for the preparation of amphiphilic block
copolymers comprising linear polyglycidol (PG). Herein, a new class of linear …

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) with an average size of 10 nm have
been successfully synthesized by the polyol method. Then, hyperbranched polyglycerol …

Amphiphilic dual graft copolymer composed of starch (St) as main chain, poly caprolactone
(PCL) and poly (2-ethyl 2-oxazoline)(POX) as hydrophobic and hydrophilic side chains were …

Nanoparticles represent an innovative class of drug delivery systems that have gained
increasing interest in nanotechnology applied to medicine. This study focused on the …
