Bioabsorbable branched polymers containing units derived from dioxanone and medical/surgical devices manufactured therefrom

摘要

Star polymers of soft segment forming monomers are useful in forming surgical devices. The star polymers can be endcapped with isocyanate, mixed with a filler and/or cross-linked. The polymer compositions are useful, for example, as fiber coatings, surgical adhesives or bone putty, or tissue growth substrate.
