Tough Acrylic Hydrogels for Candidate Meniscus Repair Materials |
| 초록 |
Double-network (DN) hydrogels have drawn much attention as an innovative material having both high water content (about 90 %) and high mechanical strength and toughness.) The excellent mechanical performances of these hydrogels originate from the specific combination of two networks with contrasting structures. These excellent mechanical performances are comparable to that of rubbers and natural bio-tissues. In focal repair of joint cartilage and meniscus, initial stiffness and strength of repairs are generally much less than surrounding tissue. This increases early failure potential. These hydrogels can be candidate-improved repair materials. In this study, it is shown that the strength and toughness properties stem from optimized composition of the two network components. DN gels thus have obvious structural parallels with cartilaginous tissues, and their surgical handling properties make them ideal candidates for clinical use |
