“…On average, the water contact angle measurement indicated 118.6 • ± 4.3 for the PGS scaffolds and 112.3 • ± 3.8 for the PGS/HAp scaffolds (Figure 6). The results indicate an increase in hydrophilicity after the addition of Hap, which is consistent with a previously reported study [49]. Multiple articles reported the hydrophilic character of bulk PGS ranging from 32 • [16] to around 70-80 • [49][50][51].…”

“…The storage modulus of PGAZH0.5, however, displayed lower values compared to other samples. The reason could be explained by the poor dispersion of HA nanoparticles within the PGAZH0.5 matrix discussing in Section 3.2, and the low amount of nanoparticles with incomplete filler networks, as reported by the previous study 33 . Loss modulus (E") of the samples are presented in Figure 6(b).…”

It was observed that the viscose constituent of PGAZ and PGAZH0.5 samples were higher than those of the other samples.…”

“…An alternative approach is a polycondensation of PGSp with linear polymers (Figure 2 Route B), such as PCL [ 63 ] and PEG [ 62,64–67 ] and their acrylated forms, poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMEMA), [ 68 ] poly(tetramethylene oxide) glycol (PTMO), [ 69 ] or simply with gelatin. [ 70 ]…”

“…Rostamian et al. [ 63 ] demonstrated the successful incorporation of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles in PGS‐ co ‐PCL, which was synthesized by melt polycondensation. The authors found a beneficial effect of the addition of caprolactone section in PGS‐ co ‐PCL regarding its viscoelastic properties and wettability.…”
