Popis: Poly(e-caprolactone) is unusual in being considered compatible with several polymers to produce useful polymer blends. Such blends have been widely investigated both with regard to producing blends with enhanced physical or mechanical properties and to plasticizing rigid polymers with a polymeric plasticizer which will not leach from its substrate. These several materials have potential practical applications. In addition, blends of poly(e-caprolactone) are probably the most widely investigated series of blends involving one or more crystallisable components and, in this context, provide information which enhances the general understanding of polymer blends.
