Flexible processing characteristics! A polymer that is also used as a material for new medical devices.
Poly-p-dioxanone (PDO) is obtained by using p-dioxanone as a monomer and performing ring-opening polymerization. It is mainly processed into biodegradable sutures and is also used as a raw material for new medical devices. Due to its flexible processing characteristics, it can be shaped into various forms. Our BioDegmer is produced in facilities compliant with ISO 13485, can be processed into a wide variety of shapes, and is used in a broad range of applications in the medical field. 【Features】 - Mainly processed into biodegradable sutures - Flexible processing characteristics - Capable of being shaped into various forms - Properties: crystalline, insoluble (except for low molecular weight variants), flexibility *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
