DOI: 10.3390/polym15040938
Abstract: The effectiveness of multifunctional composites that combine a shape-memory polyurethane (PU) matrix with hydroxyapatite (HA) as a bioactive agent and antibiotics molecules results from a specific composite structure. In this study, structure-function correlations of PU-based… read more here.
