New plastic-based composite material and its use.

摘要

The invention relates to a composite intended for medical, in particular surgical or therapeutic. According to the invention, the composite comprises a thermoplastic component plasticizable within the temperature range -10 to +100 which is substantially composed of hydroxy acids or structural units derived from hydroxy acid derivatives, the molecular weight of which is in the range of 10,000 to 1,000,000 g / mol, and which degrades in the body typically within a period ranging from a few days to several years, and which in its solid state is a mechanically strong plastic or rubbery material, a bioactive component is a bioactive glass, a bioactive xerogel, a bioactive ceramic, coral or coral-based product, or a bioactive glass ceramic material. The invention also relates to the use of new composite and products prepared therewith.
