Adaptive and amphiphilic poly(N,N-dimethylamino-2-ethyl methacrylate-graft-poly[epsilon-caprolactone]) co-networks (netP(DMAEMA-g-PCL)) were synthesized from a combination of controlled polymerization techniques. Firstly, PCL cross-linkers were produced by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of epsilon-CL initiated by 1,4-butane-diol and catalyzed by tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate ([Sn(Oct)2]), followed by the quantitative
