## Abstract To meet the challenge of regenerating bone lost to disease or trauma, biodegradable scaffolds are being investigated as a way to regenerate bone without the need for an auto‐ or allograft. Here, we have developed a novel microsphere‐based chitosan/nanocrystalline calcium phosphate (CaP)

The objective of this study was to develop a biodegradable polymer resin that could be used for the fabrication of an interpenetrating phase composite (IPC) made of porous calcium polyphosphate (CPP) and an organic polymer resin. The resin was synthesized from a polycarbonate-based divinyl oligomer
## Abstract Summary: A novel poly(__ε__‐caprolactone)/calcium sulfate system was prepared and characterized in order to enhance calcium sulfate (gypsum) performance as bone graft substitute overcoming its brittleness and fast resorption rate. A poly(__ε__‐caprolactone) (PCL) photo‐crosslinkable der
