Abstract Scope Polycaprolactone (PCL) is a polymer of the poly(α-hydroxyester) variety that is utilized extensively in tissue engineering, as it is approved for human clinical use. PCL can be functionalized with methacrylate end groups to render it photocurable, lending itself to numerous fabrication techniques. Polymerized high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPEs) produce highly porous and interconnected scaffolds that are advantageous for tissue regeneration purposes. PolyHIPEs developed with such photocurable PCL can be cured almost instantaneously to create tailorable scaffolds. Polymer chemistry reactions are described, and chemical species of the resulting product are confirmed with Raman and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Porosity and interconnectivity are demonstrated with SEM imaging.
