Versatile functionalization and grafting of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) by Michael-type addition.
The Michael-type addition of aliphatic (co)polyesters onto gamma-acryloyloxy epsilon-caprolactone units is a very straightforward technique of functionalization and grafting, which is tolerant to a variety of functional groups and does not require intermediate protection/deprotection steps.
