Synthesis of polylactic acid-polyglycolic acid blends using microwave radiation.
This engineering/materials study describes blending PLLA and PGA using microwave irradiation to produce PLGA-related blends with varying constituent concentrations. The authors report that FTIR, NMR, and DSC measurements indicate blending and cross-linking between the polymers. The abstract does not provide microwave exposure parameters or any health-related endpoints.
Key points
- Microwave irradiation was used as a processing method to blend PLLA and PGA in different concentrations.
- FTIR results are reported to support blending and cross-linking between constituents.
- NMR results are reported to support blending and cross-linking between constituents.
- DSC results are reported to support blending and cross-linking between constituents.
- The work focuses on polymer synthesis/processing rather than EMF exposure effects in organisms.
