  • GLYCEROL-BASED POLYCARBONATES
    Publication number: 20170369643
    Abstract: The invention provides polymer compositions, compounds, processes, and methods of use of the polymers for drug delivery, biodegradable consumer plastics, or solvents for Li-based batteries or supercapacitors. The invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s and alkyl functionalized poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) and poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s and pharmaceutical agent/composition functionalized poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) and poly(glyceric acid carbonate)s represent a new type of glycerol based polymer that 1) degrade into glycerol and carbon dioxide; 2) the poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) degrade more readily than conventional poly(1,3 glycerol carbonates; and 3) poly(1,2 glycerol carbonates) can be processed to give melts, viscous fluids, liquids, films, sheets, gels, meshes, foams, fibers, or particles.
