Embodiments of the present invention comprises one or more of an article composed of a copolymer, a copolymer made from a process, and a process for the preparation of a copolymer composition by metal free enzyme ring-opening polymerization of a monomer composition comprising i) an ethylene brassylate monomer; ii) a 1-4 dioxan-2-one (DO); iii) lipase B from Candida antarctica (Novozyme® 435) and at an elevated temperature, processing the monomer reactants i) and ii) to a copolymer via ring-opening polymerization under solvent-free conditions and a nitrogen atmosphere in the absence of a metal and the presence of the lipase to produce a random EB-co-DO copolymer.
