Controlled polymerisation and purification of branched poly(lactic acid) surfactants in supercritical carbon dioxide
Product degradability, sustainability and low-toxicity are driving demand for the synthesis of biobased polymers and surfactants. Here we report the synthesis of novel surface active polymers using cyclic esters (D,L-lactide) and temperature sensitive polyols (D-sorbitol) as renewable building block...
