폴리-L-유산 (PLLA)/폴리-D-유산(PDLA)의 스테레오컴플렉스(SC) 특유의 결정 거동은 PLLA/PDLA의 블렌드의 특정한 용융 조건에서 나타난다. 이를 적용하여 PLA 스테레오컴플렉스를 제조하기 위해 전반적인 조성에서 PLLA와 PDLA를 블렌드 하였다. 또한 충격 강도와 열변형온도 같은 기계적 물성 및 열적 특성을 향상시키기 위해 충격보강제, 탈크와 유리섬유(GF) 등의 보강제를 첨가하였다. 그 결과로 열변형 온도가 $115^{\circ}C$ 에서 관찰 되는 조성의 복합재를 제조하였다. 더 경제적인 방법으로, PLLA와 상용화된 폴리프로필렌(PP)을 전반적인 조성에서 블렌드 하였다. 그 결과, 특정 조성에서 상용화된 PP/탈크 복합재와 ABS에 적용시킬 수 있는 물성을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 PP와 PLLA같은 매트릭스 수지에 유리섬유 및 충격보강제를 잘 분산시키는 것에서 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.

A series of L-LA polymerizations initiated by $Sn(Oct)_{2}\;([LA]_{0}/[Sn]_{0}=200)$ were carried out in scR22 at $130^{\circ}C$ and 300 bar, where $[LA]_{0}$ is the initial L-lactide concentration and $[Sn]_{0}$ is the initial $Sn(Oct)_{2}$ concentration. The reaction time dependences of monomer conversion and PLLA MW improved. The monomer conversion and PLLA MW increased with increasing reaction time. The effect of temperature on monomer conversion and PLLA MW was investigated in a series of polymerizations conducted at temperatures ranging from 90 to $150^{\circ}C$ and at a constant pressure of 200 bar. In all of these experiments, the ratio of monomer to R22 concentration was held constant at 12.4 wt.-%. Increasing the reaction temperature from 90 to $130^{\circ}C$ resulted in increased monomer conversion from 11.5 to 72.2 %.

Vascular tissue engineering has been accessed to mimic the natural composition of the blood vessel containing intima, media, and adventitia layers. We fabricated mechanically expanded PLLA/PLCL nanofibers using electrospinning and UTM. The pore size of the meshes was increased the gelatin immobilized AAc-PLLA/PLCL nanofibers ($203.30{\pm}49.62microns$) than PLLA/PLCL nanofibers ($59.99{\pm}8.66microns$) after mechanical expansion. To increase the cell adhesion and proliferation, we introduced carboxyl group, and gelatin was conjugated on them. The properties of the PLLA/PLCL nanofibers were analyzed with SEM, ATR-FTIR, TBO staining, and water contact angle measurement, general cell responses on the PLLA/PLCL nanofibers such as adhesion, proliferation, and infiltration were also investigated using smooth muscle cell (SMC). During the SMC culture, the initial viability of the cells was significantly increased on the gelatin immobilized AAc-PLLA/PLCL nanofibers, and infiltration of the cells was also enhanced on them. Therefore, gelatin immobilized AAc-PLLA/PLCL nanofibers and mechanically expanded meshes may be a good tool for vascular tissue engineering application.

Aim of the study: Scaffolds are crucial to tissue engineering/regeneration. Biodegradable polymer/ceramic composite scaffolds can overcome the limitations of conventional ceramic bone substitutes such as brittleness and difficulty in shaping. In this study, poly(L-lactide)/hydroxyapatite(PLLA/HA) composite scaffolds were fabricated for in vivo bone tissue engineering. Material & methods: In this study, PLLA/HA composite microspheres were prepared by double emulsion-solvent evaporation method, and were evaluated in vivo bone tissue engineering. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell from rat iliac crest was differentiated to osteoblast by adding osteogenic medium, and was mixed with PLLA/HA composite scaffold in fibrin gel and was injected immediately into rat cranial bone critical size defect(CSD:8mm in diameter). At 1. 2, 4, 8 weeks after implantation, histological analysis by H-E staining, histomorphometric analysis and radiolographic analysis were done. Results: BMP-2 loaded PLLA/HA composite scaffolds in fibrin gel delivered with osteoblasts differentiated from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells showed rapid and much more bone regeneration in rat cranial bone defects than control group. Conclusion: This results suggest the feasibility and usefulness of this type of scaffold in bone tissue engineering.

The conventional FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) manufacturing process used thermoset resins for ease of molding but faced the issue of non-recyclability. To address these shortcomings, a new process utilizing thermal plastic resin was developed. However, due to the high viscosity of thermal plastic resin, problems such as fiber deformation and a reduced fiber volume fraction occurred during the high-temperature, high-pressure process. In this study, to overcome the limitations of the conventional process, fiber-reinforced composite materials were manufactured through in-situ polymerization using PLA (Poly L-Lactide) resin in the VA-RTM (Vacuum Assistance Resin Transfer Molding) process. The fiber volume of the produced specimens was calculated, and resin impregnation and porosity were confirmed through optical microscopy. Additionally, molecular weight analysis using GPC (Gel Permission Chromatography) demonstrated improvements over the conventional process and emphasized the essential requirement of temperature control.

The purpose of this study was to develop an osteogenic, biodegradable material using polymer and BMP. It was designed to have structural function and be moldable, for the reconstruction of load bearing areas and deformities of various configurations. Bone apatite was added to Poly(L-lactide)(PLLA) and made porous for osteoconductability and ease of BMP loading. The materials, with or without BMP purified from porcine bone matrix, were evaluated in cranial bone defect models in rats for biocompatibility and bone regeneration capability. The following results were obtained: The PLLA-BMP material with BMP added to the polymer showed 30% healing of cranial bone defects in rats during the 2 weeks to 3 months period of observation. The moldable PLLA agent without BMP also showed 25% bone healing capacity. Although new bone formation was incomplete in the critical size defect of rat cranium, it can be concluded that the unique moldability of those agents makes them useful for the reconstruction of various bone defects and maxillofacial deformities.

본 연구에서는 L-lactide를 이용하여 수평균분자량(Mn)과 중량평균분자량($M_w$)이 각각 12,000, 14,000 g/mol인 PLLA (Poly L-lactic acid) 수지를 합성하였으며, 이 PLLA를 이용하여 PLLA-Br 중간체를 합성하였다. PLLA-Br 중간체를 이용하여 수평균분자량($M_n$)과 중량평균분자량($M_w$)이 각각 84,000, 126,000 g/mol인 PLLA-block-PMMA (Poly L-lactic acid-block-Polymethyl methacrylate) 공중합체를 최종적으로 합성하였으며 PLLA-block-PMMA 공중합체의 유리전이온도($T_g$)는 $95.5^{\circ}C$, 열분해 개시온도는 $289^{\circ}C$이었다. PLA에 PLLA-block-PMMA를 9 phr 혼용하고 $95^{\circ}C$에서 3배 이축연신한 다음 $120^{\circ}C$에서 2 min 동안 저온열처리하여 두께가 $50{\pm}3{\mu}m$인 PLA 필름을 제조하였다. 550 nm 파장에서 측정한 PLA 필름의 빛투과율은 88.5%, 인장강도는 44.5 MPa이었으며 PLA 필름의 인장강도를 현 수준보다 개선하기 위해서는 이축연신후 $120^{\circ}C$의 온도조건에서 2 min보다 긴 저온열처리시간이 필요하였다.

의료용 금속스텐트는 관상동맥계 심장질환을 앓고 있는 환자에 시술되어 상대적으로 생존율을 높여 준다. 그러나, 재협착 및 후기 혈전증으로 인하여 새로운 스텐트의 개발이 시급하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 신생내막 과대증식을 막을 수 있는 것으로 알려진 alpha lipoic acid(ALA)를 생분해성 고분자인 poly(lactide-coglycolide)(PLGA), poly(L-lactide)(PLLA) 및 poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone)(PCL)과 혼합하여 전기분사 방식으로 스테인레스 스틸 표면 위에 코팅하였다. 코팅된 고분자로부터 약물방출 거동은 고분자의 종류와 농도, 용출속도 및 용매의 종류에 따라서 조사하였다. 약물방출 속도는 유리전이온도($T_g$)가 낮은 PCL에서 가장 빨랐으며 PLGA, PLLA 순서를 보였다. 고분자 표면의 거친정도는 용출속도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였고, 용매의 비등점의 차이에 의해서 약물방출속도가 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 약물방출 거동을 조절함으로써 ALA가 담지된 생분해성 고분자로 코팅된 약물방출 스텐트를 실제 임상적용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

최근 20년간 다양한 세포에서 파크리탁셀(PTX)의 효과에 관한 연구는 많이 있지만, 세포증식을 억제하기 위한 약물방출 동역학에 관한 연구는 거의 보고되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 약물방출스텐트 (DES)에 적용하기 위해서 생분해성 고분자로부터 파크리탁셀의 방출거동을 고찰하였다. 다양한 생분해성 고분자인 poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), poly-L-lactide(PLLA) 및 polycaprolactone(PCL)에 파크리탁셀의 함유량을 달리하여 필름을 제조한 후 약물방출 거동을 평가하였다. 약물방출은 8주 동안 이루어졌으며 FE-SEM을 통해 고분자의 분해정도를 관찰하였다. PCL의 생분해 속도는 가장 느리지만 파크리탁셀의 함량이 같을 경우 PCL로부터의 파크리탁셀 방출속도가 가장 빨랐으며 PLGA 그리고 PLLA 순서를 보였다. 이와 같은 결과를 바탕으로 PCL과 같이 유리전이온도($T_g$)가 낮은 고분자의 경우 체내에서 파크리탁셀과 같은 소수성 약물의 움직임이 용이하기 때문에 약물방출 속도가 빠를 수 있음을 제시하고 있다.

Cell attachment and proliferation on the polymer films of triblock copolymer(ester-ether)s comprising po1y (L-1actide) (PLLA) and poly (oxyethylene-co-oxypropylene)(PN) were investigated using 3T3 fibroblasts. It was found that on the tissue culture polystyrene(TCPS) and the PLLA control film the cells could spread well while on the copolymer films the cells showed a rounded morphology without spreading and proliferated weakly. Especially, little cells proliferated on the films of copolymer having a LN composition of 20 wt%. While the water absorption of the copolymer films increased with increasing PN content, the contact angle against water of copolymer films immersed in aqueous medium was almost identical, being slightly lower than that of the PLLA film. These properties were compatible with the results of cell attachment. The in vitro hydrolysis of the films of triblock and multiblock type copolymers was faster with increasing PN content. The increased hydrolyzability, the flexibility and the decreased cell attachment suggested that these copolymers may have high potential as biodegradable materials for medical use.
