Biodegradable polymer - hydroxyapatite nanocomposites for bone plate applıcations
Aydın, Erkin; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Planell, Joseph A.; Department of Biotechnology (2010)
Long bone fractures are fixed with bone plates to restrain movement of bone fragments. Fracture site must experience some pressure for proper healing. Bone plates are mostly made up of metals having 5 - 10 times higher elastic modulus than bones and most of the load is carried by them, leading to stress shielding and a bony tissue with low mineral density and strength. To avoid these problems, biodegradable polymer-based composite plates were designed and tested in this study. Poly(L-lactide) and Poly(3-hyd...

Biodegradable Elastomeric Networks: Highly Efficient Cross-Linking of Poly(trimethylene carbonate) by Gamma Irradiation in the Presence of Pentaerythritol Triacrylate
Bat, Erhan; Grijpma, Dirk W. (2010-10-01)
Biodegradable elastomeric poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) networks were efficiently formed by gamma irradiating the linear polymer in the presence of pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA). The properties of networks formed upon irradiation of PTMC films containing (0.1.5 wt %.) PETA as cross-linking aid were evaluated. The gel contents and network densities increased with increasing PETA contents, irradiation dose, and initial polymer molecular weight. At a dose of 25 kGy, networks with gel fractions up to...
Biodegradable poly (ester-urethane) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering
Kızıltay, Aysel; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Biotechnology (2011)
During last decade, polyurethanes (PUs) which are able to degrade into harmless molecules upon implantation have received a significant level of attention as a biomaterial in tissue engineering applications. Many studies are focused especially on development of PUs based on amino acid derivatives; however, there are only few applications of amino acid based PUs in tissue engineering. In this study, a biocompatible and biodegradable thermoplastic poly(ester-urethane) (PEU) based on L-lysine diisocyanate (LDI...
