## Abstract Poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS), a promising scaffold material for soft tissue engineering applications, is a soft, tough elastomer with excellent biocompatibility. However, the rapid __in vivo__ degradation rate of PGS limits its use as a scaffold material. To determine the impact of cro
## Abstract A thermoplastic poly(glycerol sebacate) elastomer (TMPGS), prepared by a two‐step method for the first time, is characterized in the present work. First, non‐crosslinked poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS) prepolymers at the 1 : 1 molar ratio of glycerol to sebacic acid were synthesized throu
## Abstract We have developed a series of biodegradable elastomers, poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS), based on glycerol and sebacic acid. The polymers are potentially useful in soft tissue regeneration and engineering. To evaluate the performance of PGS in a physiological environment, we compared thei
