Abstract

Polymers have been broadly used in consumer goods, drug delivery, formulation, semiconductor, and packaging applications. Generally, polymers would be divided into two categories. The first category is commodity polymers. For instance, many packages of polymers are used daily: LDPE, HDPE, PVC, PE, PS, and PP. Based on the properties of each polymer, applications were adjusted for specific uses. The second category is engineering polymers. For example, PC, PDMS, PET, PA, and POM. This article will discuss polymer applications that mainly focus on drug delivery. Specifically, this article review will conduct a details application of polymers when formulating polymers into drug delivery processes. This review will elaborate on polymer application in control release, oral delivery, transdermal delivery, protein modification, cancer therapy, RNA delivery, and application. This review would also provide a comprehensive review of drug delivery characteristics.
