Abstract

Current methods for biomaterials development involve one-specimen-at-a-time characterization which is costly and time-consuming. Combinatorial and high-throughput methods hold the potential to enhance research and development in any field of scientific study. In the Polymers Division we are leading the way in the application of these approaches to the characterization of biomaterials. Towards this end, we have utilized gradient technology to create libraries with varying material properties focusing specifically on surface energy, polymer crystallinity and polymer composition.
