Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to specific DL-lactide- epsilon -caprolactone copolymers and the application of these polymers in the production of biodegradable medical applications. According to the present invention a polymeric material comprising poly(DL-lactide-co- epsilon -caprolactone) is provided, which is obtained by the copolymerization of DL-lactide and epsilon -caprolactone, having a lactide content of 51-75 mol%, most preferably of 62-69 mol%. The materials of the present invention have excellent mechanical properties and may be used to provide articles for medical application, in particular nerve guides.
