## Abstract Phosphate glass (PG) of the composition 0.46(CaO)–0.04(Na~2~O)–0.5(P~2~O~5~) was used as filler in poly‐L‐lactic acid (PLA) foams developed as degradable scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. The effect of PG on PLA was assessed both in bulk and porous composite foams. Composites with

## Abstract A series of elastic polymer and composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications were designed. Two crosslinked copolymer matrices with 90/10 and 30/70 mol % of ϵ‐caprolactone (CL) and D,L‐lactide (DLLA) were prepared with porosities from 45 to 85 vol % and their mechanical
## Abstract In this article, a nanofibrous composite scaffold of poly L‐lactic acid(PLA)/silk fibroin(SF)‐gelatin was fabricated by multilayer electrospinning. To investigate the feasibility of PLA/SF‐gelatin use as scaffolds, the porosity and mechanical properties were examined; in particular, the
