An Intelligent Degradable Polymer Composite Which Closely Matches Bone

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and its copolymers with polyhydroxyvalerate (PHV) are a range of slowly degrading polyesters with potential for use in orthopaedic surgery. The polymer degradation profile is unpredictable and thus a composite of PHB/7 % PHV and a completely soluble phosphate based glass re...
