The importance of the mechanical role of collagen in bone is becoming increasingly more clear as evidence mounts on the detrimental effects of altered collagen on the mechanical properties of bone. We previously examined a set of mechanical properties (material stiffness, strength, and toughness) of
## Abstract The aim of this study was to compare the effects of 5 to 30 parts by weight of unmodified and modified collagen on the properties of XNBR rubber vulcanized with a crossβlinking system. This study is a part of experimental series concerning polymeric materials that are biodegradable due
