Additional information

This paper contains the first published results demonstrating the potential for controlling the bioresorption rate of this polymer. During the work an industrial collaboration was developed with Smith & Nephew (Prof David Farrar, Biomaterials Manager, York). Melt-processing issues identified during this work have led to the award of a major new FP7 Research for SMEs grant, €1m, 2013 (Bio-PolyTec, proposal no. 605086)
