The evolution of the structure and mechanical properties of fully bioresorbable polymer-glass composites during degradation
- Abstract:
-
Fully bioresorbable polymer matrix composites have long been considered as potential orthopaedic implant materials, however their combination of mechanical strength, stiffness, ductility and bioresorbability is also attractive for cardiac stent applications. This work investigated reinforcement of polylactide-based polymers with phosphate glasses, addressing key drawbacks of current polymer stents, and examined the often-neglected evolution of structure and mechanical properties during degrad...
