PET solutions and methods of making PET solutions for medical devices

摘要

A method of making a solution including poly(ethylene terephthalate). The method includes dissolving poly(ethylene terephthalate) in a solvent mixture to form a solution, the solvent mixture including two solvent components. A Hansen Solubility Parameter Distance between the solvent mixture and HSP coordinates having a dispersion HSP of 18.02 MPa0.5, a polar HSP of 5.56 MPa0.5, and a hydrogen bonding HSP of 14.27 MPa0.5 is less than about 2 MPa0.5.
