Abstract

There are many different resorbable polymer systems based on different degradation mechanisms, and having a range of physical and mechanical properties. This chapter covers those polymers that are fiber forming and hydrolytically sensitive. Mechanical properties, resorption profile, and medical applications for these polymers have been discussed.
