## Abstract A fibrous precursor for bone repair composites was made by coating poly(Lβlactide) (PLLA) fibers with hydroxyapatite (HA) using a biomimetic method. To enhance the bonding between the HA coating and the PLLA fiber, PLLA fibers were etched with either sodium hydroxide or sodium hypochlor

## Abstract We studied the effects of thermal treatment on the expansive characteristics of a coilβwithinβcoil Poly(Lβlactic acid) (PLLA) fiber stent developed at our institution to improve its mechanical performance and reproducibility. Following fabrication, furled stents were thermally treated a
Molecular weight distribution and long chain branching were taken into account for the glass transition temperature (Tg)-molecular weight (M) relationships for bisphenol-A polycarbonate. A new form of the four-variable equation for Tg is proposed for polydisperse branched polymers. The extended equa
