Abstract
Poly(glycerol citrate) is a biodegradable aliphatic polyester made of citric acid and glycerol. Because of the high functionality of the reactants, citric acid—4 and glycerol—3, there are many possibilities for creating different polymer chain structures. In this work, the polycondensation of citric acid with glycerol and its kinetics were studied through the kinetic model, allowing for estimation of relevant kinetic constants values for the...
