The rates of change of polymer properties (glass transition temperature, weight fraction sorbed water, and polymer molecular weight) were determined in Poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) films under accelerated storage conditions. Films were stored at 70 degrees C and 95%, 75%, 60%, 45%, or 28% relative humidity. Weight fraction sorbed water was determined by thermogravimetric analysis, the glass transition temperature (Tg(mix)) of the polymer/water mixture by modulated temperature differential scanning calorimetry, and PLGA number-average molecular weight (M-n) by size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Rates of moisture increase and Tg(mix) decrease were related to the decrease in PLGA M-n through a modification of the Gordon-Taylor equation. Understanding the relative rates of polymer physical and chemical degradation will allow for improved design of PLGA formulations that control rates of drug delivery and preserve drug stability.
