Abstract: An alternative concept for the introduction of second amorphous phase was reported using di-methacylates (DM) as oligomeric crosslinker for polyacrylates forming amorphous AB copolymer networks. The aim is is to retain the poly[(L-lactide)-ran-glycolide)] segments forming the phase with the high glass transition temperature Tg.has network component but to incorporate a second amorphous phase with a low glass transition temperature Tg.l. This low glass transition temperature keeps the material elastic even below Tg.hof poly[(L-lactide)-ran-glycolide)]-phase. Amorphous AB copolymer network was prepared by polymerizing various acrylates and poly[(L-lactide)-ran-glycolide)] dimethyacrylate using UV-light. Thermal properties of polymer networks were investigated by DSC and DMTA. The values for Tgwere found to decrease gradually with increasing acrylate content, ranging from 55°C to -12°C for the PDMAEt.
