Enzymatic synthesis of polymer building blocks
Schmidt, Sandy Polyesters such as poly-e-caprolactone are important polymers due to their special properties and thus allow versatile applications. Moreover, these polymers have the potential to be made out of monomers derived from renewable sources which is in terms of sustainability and the utilization of environmentally benign resources an important advantage. Nevertheless, there is still a need to find new ways to produce the desired polyesters from vari...
