Electrospun Blends of Polydioxanone and Poly(lactic Acid): Mechanical, Morphological, and Permeability Studies

Electrospun Blends of Polydioxanone and Poly(lactic Acid): Mechanical, Morphological, and Permeability Studies

The objective of this research project was to evaluate the mechanical, morphological, and permeability properties of electrospun blends of polydioxanone and poly(lactic acid) for application as vascular grafts. Mechanical analysis was performed by uniaxial tensile testing to examine the peak load, p...
