## Abstract **Summary:** Poly(__ε__‐caprolactone) (PCL)/chitin and PCL/chitosan blend films with compositional gradients were successfully fabricated by a dissolution/diffusion method; that is, repeatedly pouring the PCL/chitin (or PCL/chitosan) blend solutions, with variable composition, onto poly
