## Abstract **Summary:** Novel, star‐shaped, amphiphilic block copolymers composed of fully degradable poly(caprolactone) were synthesized by sequential addition polymerization. In the first step, four‐arm macroinitiators were produced by ring‐opening polymerization of caprolactone by initiation wi

## Abstract The star‐shaped amphiphilic block copolymer (DPEA‐PCL‐PNIPAAms) with different PCL block lengths was prepared through ring opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone (CL) initiated by hydroxyl end‐capped dendritic poly(ether‐amide) (DPEA‐OH), and then coupling with carboxyl end‐capped lin
Polylactide (PLA)-based biodegradable and biocompatible amphiphilic block copolymers bearing pendant amino acid residues were synthesized through a relatively easy and efficient way. The composition and structure of these copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and 1 H n
