Abstract:
There are several methods of producing open porous polymer structures for medical use. However, very few are applicable to industries and are therefore limited to both number of samples and batch variations. This study presents an industrial microcellular injection molding process, known as MuCell® technology, which was used to produce highly porous scaffolds of thermoplastic polyurethane. A parameter study was performed to quantify and analyze the effect of the processing parameters on the poro...     »
