1. Polyglycolide is primarily used as a material for absorbable surgical sutures, marketed under trade names like Dexon and Surgicryl, due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility.
2. PGA CAS 26124-68-5 is utilized in biomedical applications including implantable medical devices (pins, rods, plates, screws), drug delivery systems, and tissue engineering scaffolds.
3. Polyglycolide has been explored for sustainable packaging solutions and industrial applications such as oil field temporary plugging materials due to its hydrolytic degradation properties.
Packed in 1kg/bag, 5kg/bag, 25kg/drum
1. Polyglycolide is a synthetic, biodegradable, thermoplastic aliphatic polyester first synthesized in 1954 and is produced via ring-opening polymerization of glycolide (the cyclic dimer of glycolic acid).
2. Polyglycolide is manufactured using stannous octoate (FDA-approved as a food stabilizer) as the most common catalyst, with high molecular weight polymer produced under nitrogen atmosphere at 195-230°C.
3. Polyglycolide is commercially produced with CAS Registry Number 26124-68-5 (or 26009-03-0) and molecular formula (C₂H₂O₂)ₙ, and is available from chemical suppliers worldwide.
1. If inhaled (dust), move the person exposed to Polyglycolide to fresh air and consult a physician if breathing difficulty or irritation develops.
2. If in eyes, rinse Polyglycolide particles cautiously with plenty of water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present, and get medical attention if irritation persists.
3. If on skin, wash Polyglycolide with plenty of soap and water; remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
1. Store Polyglycolide in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture as Polyglycolide is hydrolytically sensitive.
2. Recommended storage temperature for Polyglycolide is between 2-8°C (refrigerated) to maintain stability and prevent premature degradation.
3. For long-term storage, some suppliers recommend storing Polyglycolide at -20°C in sealed, dry conditions.
