Abstract:
Polymers are serving the mankind in various ways since long. Over the previous number of years, these polymers have found great demand in various domains. These materials are intensively studied over the years for a various range of applications Polymeric materials have found notable applications within the sphere of biomedical. This might ensue to their useful properties, such as: easy processing, lightweight and suppleness, high strength to weight, availability and recyclability. Polymeric materials also are able to alter their chemical or physical properties upon exposure to external stimuli. Thanks to these properties, they're widely applied for biomedical applications like drug delivery, tissue engineering scaffolds, wound dressings, and antibacterial coatings.
