Polyesters have been studied intensely over the last few decades and proved to be suitable for a wide range of applications. Despite all benefits, drawbacks such as e.g. acidification microenvironment during degradation, represent ongoing issues. Therefore, necessity developing alternative materials in drug delivery systems represents an emerging field polymer science. In that regard, this review covers latest developments (bio)degradable synthetic polymers beyond polyesters. spite seemingly...
