Current Situation And Application Of Medical Polymeric Materials

Medical polymeric material is a kind of synthesized polymeric material which having a special function to restore, replace and regenerate the organisms. This material can be prepared by polymerization which is one of the important components of biomedical material. For polymeric materials have different physical and chemical features by the control of its components and structures to meet all the needs. With the feature of anti biological aging, it has a excellent biological stability and physical performance, mechanical performance as a long-term implant material. Along with advantages of easy processed and shaped, easy obtain of raw materials, easy sterilization, polymeric materials drew people's high concern. Now it is becoming the mostly widely used medical materials whose demand keeps increasing dramatically in recent years. Now, there are more than 90 kinds of polymeric materials being used world widely.The medical polymeric material used in western countries is increasing at a extent of 10%~20% each year. Take America for example, millions of people suffer from different losses of organisms, organs, disabilities and functional disorders each year, as a result, there are nearly 8 million surgeries with yearly expenditure of 40 billion us dollars, while treatment fees spent on organ failure and organism losses take up half of the total. With the raise of people's living standard and pursue of life quality in our country, the demand of medial polymeric material will also increase constantly.
Classicification and Characristics of Medial Polymeric Material
Nowadays there are two major kinds of medial polymeric materials: Nondegradable material and biological degradable material.
