Injectable non-leaching tissue-mimetic bottlebrush elastomers as an advanced platform for reconstructive surgery
Minimally invasive materials that match tissues mechanical properties are needed for biomedical applications. Here, the authors report on brush-like polymers which can be injected and cured in situ, resulting in elastomeric implants which mechanically blend with surrounding tissue and show minimal f...
