Poly(Caprolactone-co-L-lactide) (PCLLA) is a biodegradable and biocompatible copolymer that has a range of potential applications in the biomedical and pharmaceutical industries and is commonly used as a material for medical devices, 3D printed tissue engineering scaffolds, and drug delivery.

The biodegradation rate of PCLLA is influenced by monomer ratio and molecular weight. PCLLA is composed of the monomers caprolactone and L-lactide, with higher ratio of caprolactone resulting in a slower degradation rate due to it being more hydrophobic than L-lactide, and thus less susceptible to ester hydrolysis. Generally, a higher molecular weight also denotes a slower degradation rate.

We offer several PCLLA products of varying monomer ratios and molecular weights.
