G. Liu et al., COPOLYMERIZATION OF GLYCOLIDE WITH LACTID E AND MEASUREMENT OF REACTIVITY RATIOS, Gaodeng xuexiao huaxue xuebao, 18(3), 1997, pp. 486-488
The copolymerization of glycolide-lactide is studied by using stannous
octoate as an initiator, The contents of two monomer units in copolym
ers were determined by H-1 NMR spectra. The reactivity ratios of monom
ers were evaluated by Kelen-Tudos method and least-square-calculation.
The monomer reactivity ratios of glycolide and lactide are r(1) = 3.4
0 and r(2) = 0.22 respectively.
