Influence of the Cross-Link Density on the Rate of Crystallization of Poly(ε-Caprolactone)

Influence of the Cross-Link Density on the Rate of Crystallization of Poly(ε-Caprolactone)

Cross-linked poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) is a smart biocompatible polymer exhibiting two-way shape memory effect. PCL samples with different cross-link density were synthesized by heating the polymer with various amounts of radical initiator benzoyl peroxide (BPO). Non-isothermal crystall...
