• An Overview of Poly(lactic-co-glycolic) Acid (PLGA)-Based Biomaterials for Bone Tissue Engineering (2014, methodology): “[19,20] reported a simple one-step method, a direct polycondensation from LA and GA, carried out in the azeotropical solvent diphenyl ether, characterized by a high boiling point.”
• Fiber-Based Tissue Engineering: Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities (2012, background): “Since the melted polymers are usually highly viscous (e.g., viscosity of PLA at melting point is 104 times higher than water (Ajioka et al., 1995)), high pressures are required to push the polymer through the spinneret (Akbari et al., 2011).”
