Microwave processing of bio-degradable polymers : ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone

Microwave-assisted ring opening polymerisation (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (ε-cap) has been investigated to quantify the influence of microwave heating on polymerisation reactions in order to provide a basis for the design of a continuous process (potential for scale up). This thesis presents a detailed...
