  1. 1. Synthetic Pathways to Aliphatic Polyesters and Scaffold Design

    Author : Therese Tyson; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Elisabetta Ranucci; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : As the field of tissue engineering progresses, a continuous development of scaffold fabrication techniques and suitable degradable materials is required to obtain scaffolds with tunable characteristics. This thesis has focused on the development of pathways to synthesize degradable aliphatic polyesters and on the design of highly porous scaffolds from this class of materials. READ MORE
