A Highly Hydrophilic and Biodegradable Novel Poly(amide-imide) for Biomedical Applications

A novel biodegradable poly(amide-imide) (PAI) with good hydrophilicity was synthesized by incorporation of l-glycine into the polymer chain. For comparison purposes, a pure PAI containing no l-glycine was also synthesized with a three-step method. In this study, we evaluated the novel PAI’s thermal...
