Tuneable Stiffness from Crosslinked Polymers

texasam logoTunable stiffness is highly desirable in the world of medical implant manufacture. When 3D printing prosthetics (especially bone replacements) it’s important to get the variable stiffness of the bone correct. Bones are not solid. They have little structures / voids that vary in size and distribution throughout the bone, allowing the bone to flex non-uniformly […]
