Synergy of titanium dioxide nanotubes and polyurethane properties for bypass graft application: Excellent flexibility and biocompatibility

A flexible, porous and biocompatible titanium dioxide nanotubes (TNT) - polyurethane (PU) film has been produced as a new scaffold for artificial vascular grafts. Synergistic improvements in the properties of vertical TNT and PU was reached, including enhancements in their biocompatibility, mechanic...
