Thermo-Mechanical Properties of P(HB-HV) Nanocomposites Reinforced by Nanodiamonds

Several studies of biodegradable polymers and copolymers have been carried for different applications in the biomedical area. This current study aims to develop a biocomposite to be used as an orthopedic device, using poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) P(HB-HV), a biodegradable copolymer,...
