    In vivo degradation of copolymers prepared from l-lactide, 1,3-trimethylene carbonate and glycolide as coronary stent materials

    A series of high molecular weight polymers were prepared by ring opening polymerization of l-lactide (l-LA), 1,3-trimethylene carbonate (TMC) and glycolide using stannous octoate as catalyst. The resulting polyme...
