Succinic acid‐co‐polyethylene glycol polyester polyol acrylates, capable of in situ polymerization with UV radiation, were synthesized and characterized. Effect of structural changes such as internal branching, external crosslinking on their polymerization and degradation properties were investigated. Use of external crosslinkers reduced the polymerizability of the polymer. Lipases of different origins expedited the degradation to different extents and lipase isolated from porcine pancreas appeared to be more efficient than lipases from other sources.
