Abstract: Amphiphilic triblock copolymers B-A-B, wherein A is a linear poly(ethylene glycol) block, having a number average molecular weight (Mn) of between 900 and 3000 Daltons, determined with size exclusion chromatography; wherein B are hydrophobic blocks with at least two cyclic monomers selected from the group consisting of glycolide, lactide, 1,3-dioxan-2-one, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one, 1,4-dioxan-2-one, 1,4-dioxepan-2-one, 1,5-dioxepan-2-one, each B-block having a number average molecular weight (Mn) of between 400 and 2000 Daltons, determined with size exclusion chromatography; and wherein 25% to 100% of the polymer hydroxyl end-groups are covalently modified with at least one derivative of a C2-C20 fatty acid. The invention also relates to compositions with such polymers and the use thereof.

Abstract: Amphiphilic copolymer, containing at least a hydrophilic chain segment (A) and a hydrophobic chain segment (B), wherein the hydrophilic chain segment (A) contains peptides and wherein the hydrophobic chain segment (B) contains acetal groups or orthoester groups. The hydrophilic chain segment (A) preferably contains glutamine/glutamic acid units or asparagines/aspartic acid units, making a biodegradable copolymer which can form a thermogel.
