Used in biomedical applications, particularly in the development of absorbable sutures and drug delivery systems due to its controlled degradation properties. Its mechanical strength and tunable resorption rate make it suitable for orthopedic fixation devices such as pins and screws. Commonly applied in tissue engineering scaffolds where gradual breakdown supports natural tissue regeneration. Also utilized in manufacturing of long-acting injectable formulations where consistent polymer erosion ensures steady release of active pharmaceutical ingredients.
