REVERSIBLE STIFFENING OF LIGHT WEIGHT MESH

摘要

An implant and a process for preparing such an implant are disclosed. The implant includes a mesh including a biodegradable polymeric coating having glass transition temperature of about 26° C. to about 36° C. The polymeric coating includes a first polymeric component including a lactone and a second polymeric component including a polyether. The first polymeric component is present in an amount from about 90% to about 99% of the polymeric coating and the second polymeric component is present in an amount from about 1% to about 10% of the polymeric coating.
