homopolüestrid
Homopolüestrid are a class of polymers characterized by repeating ester functional groups within their main chain, where each ester linkage is derived from the same single monomeric unit. This means that the repeating unit consists of a diol and a dicarboxylic acid, or a hydroxycarboxylic acid, that are identical. In essence, the polymer is formed by the self-esterification of a single type of molecule containing both hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, or by the polymerization of a diol and a dicarboxylic acid that are conceptually the same.
The synthesis of homopolüestrid typically involves polycondensation reactions. For instance, a hydroxycarboxylic acid can undergo intermolecular
Examples of homopolüestrid can include polymers derived from simple molecules like glycolic acid or lactic acid.
