Sumario:The development and advancement of polymeric implant materials is a frequent focus in current research. The combination of polymeric materials with diverging properties provides a wide range of new materials with innovative characteristics. One technology for combining materials is to apply a coated layer onto a base material. In this work, a hyperelastic, synthetic base material was combined with a rigid biopolymer coating layer. A multilayered material with combined characteristics of both was built. In the field of processed polymers, the analysis of coating adhesion is not feasible using established methods. Therefore, a dynamic-mechanical method was investigated, which supplements the uniaxial tensile test and provides knowledge regarding mechanical resistance of the multilayered polymer structure. Furthermore, the method gets validated by SEM-imaging and evaluation of coating composition before and after testing under dynamic conditions.
