Poly(lactide-co-caprolactone)
(PLCL)
PLCL combines the desirable mechanical properties of PCL with the higher degradation and biocompatibility of PLA. There are a wide variety of these available which differ in their ratio of lactide:caprolactone as well as the stereochemistry of the lactide unit (caprolactone, like glycolide, is a non-chiral unit).
