Aliphatic polycarbonates have gained increased attention as biomaterials largely owing to
their biocompatibility and tunable degradation. Moreover, the ability to introduce functional …

Nanomaterials with surface functionalized by different chemical groups can either provoke
or attenuate the immune responses of the nanomaterials, which is critical to their biomedical …

Biodegradable elastomers in the form of polyurethane nanoparticles (NPs) were
successfully synthesized based on the combinations of two hydrolysis-prone polyester diols …

Various types of synthetic polyesters have been developed as biomaterials for tissue
engineering. These materials commonly possess biodegradability, biocompatibility, and …

We present P (TMC-co-DLLA) copolymer with the molar ratio of TMC: DLLA= 15: 85 was
used to systematic study of in vivo and in vitro degradation behaviors. Dense homogeneous …

Degradable polyester-based scaffolds are ideal for tissue engineering applications where
long-term structural integrity and mechanical support are a requisite. However, their …

Polyurethanes (PUs) have evolved rapidly from traditional polymers to materials with high
performance physical properties in recent years. From a chemical point of view, the urethane …

Polyurethane (PU) nanoparticles are potential drug carriers. We aimed to study the in vitro
