Nature on planet earth is dominated by poly (phosphoester) s (PPEs). They structure and
determine life in the form of deoxy-and ribonucleic acid (DNA & RNA), and, as …

Abstract Poly (phosphoester) s (PPEs) play an important role in nature. They structure and
determine life in the form of deoxy‐and ribonucleic acid (DNA and RNA), and, as …

Polyphosphoesters (PPEs) are a class of (bio) degradable polymers with high chemical
versatility and functionality. In particular, water-soluble PPEs with the phosphoester group in …

Abstract Poly (ε-caprolactones)(PCLs) belong to the first generation of synthetic aliphatic
polyesters. Their biodegradability motivated their extensive exploration as resorbable …

In recent years, a new generation of drugs has entered the pharmaceutical market. Some
