Abstract:
1. A crosslinked lactic acid polymer composition, comprising: (i) a macromer comprising (i-a) a flexible segment produced by the condensation of two or more compounds selected from the group consisting of lactones, furans, epoxies, isocyanates, anhydrides, dianhydrides, alcohols, diols, triols, carboxylic acids, dicarboxylic acids, tricarboxylic acids, esters, diesters, triesters, ethers, diethers, and triethers, and (i-b) a lactic acid segment produced by the condensation of a lactic acid monomer or dimer selected from the group consisting of (ii) a lactic acid polymer produced by the condensation of a lactic acid monomer or dimer selected from the group consisting of wherein the macromer and the lactic acid polymer contain carbon-carbon single-bond crosslinks and the dispersion index (Mw/Mn) of the crosslinked lactic acid polymer is from about 10 to about 70.
