Influence of E-Beam Irradiation on Poly(aliphatic/aromatic-ester) Multiblock Copolymers Used as Biomaterials

摘要

The mechanical Performance of biomateri-als for products such as implants and rub-bery medical parts is scrutinized with the same importance as biocompatibility be-cause their inadequate Performance or even premature failure can create health is-sues for users. Consequently the durability or long-term mechanical Performance of new biomaterials has also become a prime concern in their adoption for medical de-vices [1]. Hence, the long-term dynamic properties of these elastomeric biomaterials are of ereat importance.
