GA

Short Description:

As a polymerization monomer, GAglycolide)can be homopolymerized into polyglycolide, or undergo ring-opening copolymerization with other cyclic monomers to produce random or block copolymers, playing a crucial role in biodegradable polymer materials. Medical-grade glycolide is widely used in applications such as artificial skin and blood vessels, bone fixation, sustained drug release, and surgical sutures.
