Photocurable liquid biodegradable copolymers were prepared by ring-opening copolymerization of epsilon-caprolactone (CL) and trimethylene carbonate (TMC) in the presence of a multifunctional hydroxyl group-bearing substance (di-, tri-, and tetra-functional alcohol and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and its four-branched derivative) as an initiator and subsequent endcapping with acryloyl chloride at their hydroxyl terminals. These multifunctional, viscous liquid copolymers (molecular weights; approximately 2 x 10(3) to 7 x 10(3) g/mol) were converted to crosslinked solids by visible-light irradiation in the presence of camphorquinone as an initiator. The photocuring rate of these copolymers was enhanced by both higher functionality and lower molecule weight of the copolymers used. The photocuring rate depended on the amount of reducing agent (methacrylic acid 2-dimethylaminoethyl ester). Upon immersion in a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4), hydrolysis occurred preferentially on the surface except for photocured PEG-based copolymers that were degraded faster via both surface erosion and bulk degradation than low molecular weight alcohols-based copolymers. Cylindrical photocured constructs prepared by photoirradiation to the whole body in a mold filled with the liquid copolymer was demonstrated as an example of shape fabrication of biodegradable biomedical devices.
