Paperback. Series: SpringerBriefs in Materials. Num Pages: 86 pages, 15 black & white illustrations, 5 colour illustrations, 14 black & white tables, 1 colour. BIC Classification: MQW; PNNP; PSF; TDH; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 5. Weight in Grams: 150.
This book summarizes the properties and applications of conventional and commercially available fiber-forming, bioresorbable polymers, as well as those currently under study, for use as biotextiles. Factors affecting the performance of these biomaterials are presented, and precautionary measures to reduce premature, hydrolytic degradation during manufacturing and processing are discussed. Because of the structural requirements of medical devices and the technological advancements in synthetic fibers and textile technology, the new field of "Biotextiles" has evolved to exploit the potential of various woven, knitted, braided and non-woven textile structures for biomedical applications. Textile substrates provide certain unique mechanical properties to the medical ... Read more
