Abstract
Poly(2-oxepane-1,5-dione) has been obtained by ring opening polymerization of 1,4,8-trioxaspiro[4.6]-9-undecanone, followed by deacetalization of the resulting polymer. Compared to unmodified polycaprolactone, this polymer is highly crystalline, has a much higher melting temperature and has the potential to be photodegradable
