Biomaterials play a central role in many areas of medicine, including drug delivery, tissue regeneration and implantable devices. [1][2][3] For some applications, biodegradable elastomeric materials have particular utility, since their compliance under force closely resembles the elastic nature of m
## Abstract Melt blending of polylactide (PLA) and a biodegradable poly(ether)urethane (PU) elastomer has been performed in an effort to toughen the polylactide without compromising its biodegradability and biocompatibility. The miscibility, phase morphology, mechanical properties, and toughening m
## Abstract Various radiopaque compounds of a poly (etherβ__block__βamide) copolymer resin filled with fine barium sulfate particles were prepared by melt mixing. Material properties of the filled compounds were investigated using various material characterization techniques, including thermogravim
In vitro enzymatic degradation of nonporous films of segmented poly(ether urethane) (Pellethane 2363-80AE) was investigated by incubating the biomaterial in concentrated trypsin solutions for 5 months at room temperature. Chemical degradation of films was monitored by surface analysis techniques suc
