A Rapid Method to Noninvasively Measure the Viscoelastic Properties of Synthetic Polymers Using Mechanical Vibrations and Photonics

A Rapid Method to Noninvasively Measure the Viscoelastic Properties of Synthetic Polymers Using Mechanical Vibrations and Photonics

Noninvasive measurement of the viscoelastic properties of both natural and synthetic polymers is important for the analysis of implant design and performance as well as in industrial material development. In this study, we used vibrational optical coherence tomography (VOCT) to compare the elastic a...
